Make the next right play 💯

[What Drives Winning @WDWconvo]

3 Signs A Leader Is Process-Driven:
1) They don’t grade their decisions on outcomes.
2) They don’t have double-standards.
3) They don’t positively reinforce good outcomes on poor process.

Note: All their energy flows from a place of what’s the next right thing? If you view leaders from that lens, the elite separate themselves.

Intensity, Hunger and Standards: New OPHS Girls Basketball Coach April Schilling https://t.co/X9Ef0HBoPA

[Joe Haefner | Breakthrough Basketball @BreakthruBball]

When you're in the lab, working on your "bag" this offseason, remember...

- 50% of your shots come with no dribble (catch and shoot)
- 20% of your shots come with 1 or 2 dribbles.

And don't forget, the more dribbles you take, the lower your shooting percentage gets.

No Dribbles - 1.19 Points Per Shot
1 Dribble - 1.07 Points Per Shot
2 Dribbles - 0.99 Points Per Shot
3+ Dribbles - 0.98 Points Per Shot

With a side note, lay ups are by far the most efficient shots in basketball, so use that dribble to get to the rim if you need to!

This data was taken from an 24-25 NBA season. It barely changes season to season.

Love these SOB play calls🔥

[Fran Fraschilla @franfraschilla]

Coaches: The ⁦@WNBA⁩ gives us great opportunities to add special situations to our playbook. Becky Hammon & the ⁦@LVAces⁩ never disappoint. Last night was a “clinic.” (And, I added a “wrinkle” to the 2nd play: “Design your play with missed shot in mind.”)

[April (McDivitt) Schilling @AprilDSchilling]

Love this 👌🏽

[Hoop Herald @TheHoopHerald]

This is elite coaching

“We are trying to play fast when it’s 5 on 5, we can’t do that. We have to manipulate the spacing first”

Really good stuff

He’s a young coach but you can tell he is a non stop student of the game

[April (McDivitt) Schilling @AprilDSchilling]

Love this!

[Hoop Herald @TheHoopHerald]

3 of the 4 coaches going to the Final Four were High School or Prep School Coaches in 2010

That plus the success Bucky McMillan had this season at Samford

Maybe more D1 College AD’s should look to hire coaches from successful High School Programs

Pete Maravich & Caitlin Clark - 2 of my all time favorite players. Their incredible skill level and passion for the game has inspired millions!

[April (McDivitt) Schilling @AprilDSchilling]

Fantastic article written by one of the best writers of our time! Thanks for all you do for growing our game while shedding light on the past greats! 👊🏽@MAVoepel

[Michael Voepel @MAVoepel]

Bill Walton says of hoops wizard Pete Maravich, “If he played today, he would have his own television network.” Comparing eras in sports is always tough, but we look at the talent/impact of the LSU great and @IowaWBB’s @CaitlinClark22. https://t.co/OBJtMHnVJ1
