Bob Knight believed drills fail for the same reason:

They're organized around activity instead of learning.

He had 5 rules for every drill. ↓

Very excited for Tristan to hit the ground running with us. His shooting form and consistency is textbook. He’s ready to show other areas of his game this Summer.

Rick Majerus on Scoring in the Low Post Area:
“Sight your Target! There is a direct correlation between the amount of concentration that you place on the target and the success you are likely to have. So throughout the mechanics of the shot, we want you to sight the target.”

Five things that separate the best programs:
1. Preparation
Prepare like you just lost you last game. -Bill Parcells
2 . Teaching
Quality vs. Quantity
It fits, it correlates, it all works together.
Veterans teach rookies (never 2 rookies)
Worst thing is a coach not teaching.
3 Keys in Teaching
1. See the skill properly
2. Feel the skill properly
3. Repeat the skill properly & quickly.
It's not what you teach, it's what you emphasize.
Be a skill coach, not a drill coach.
3 . Consistency
If I teach a skill one way, it must be consistent with the whole.
4. Compete
Compete in practice. Keep Score.
5 . Close
Do not celebrate.
Closing is big!
Must coach your best player.
