Scottie Pippen made a valid point.🔥

“My problem is more so with LeBron. If you are the greatest player, if people are saying you are the greatest player, or if people are saying Michael Jordan is the greatest player, why do you need to say it? Michael Jordan has never ever said he���s the greatest player to ever play the game. Why? He’s respected all the other players before him. So, for LeBron to say that, he’s sort of pulling himself out of it because you can’t say you’re the greatest player. You have to allow your peers and the world to say that.”

All of us NBA fans 100% agree with Scottie Pippen's opinion.

Coaches: You can find really good X’s & O’s anywhere in the world. Here’s a simple but effective Side Out of Bounds play with wrinkles from Latvia’s BK Liepaja. Throw it in your playbook for next season if you like it. @coach_paint

[Coach DeMarco, EdD @Coach_DeMarco]

STOP LETTING 2-3 ZONES KILL YOUR BASELINE INBOUNDS!

This one simple BLOB called "Box UP" will give your team easy inside AND outside scoring options against the zone... and it works just as good against man-to-man too!

Perfect for coaches and players who want something simple yet super effective that your team can install in one practice.

If you’re tired of getting stuck or forced into tough shots out of bounds, you NEED to watch this right now 👇

Drop a 🔥 if you’re running this next season! Who’s adding “Box Up” to their playbook?

How do HOF coaches attack zone defense?

Inside "Hall of Fame Coaches: Zone Offense" we study 20+ zone offense concepts from Izzo, Self, Scheyer, Painter, McDermott, Dusty May, and more.

This is so freaking hard to guard

Free agency is here and, right now, my TL is all LeBron, all day. Where's he going, what are the Warriors doing, etc. That's fine. He's LJ. I get it! But I'll tell you what I'm actually watching, and it isn't LJ and marquee guys. It's the OGs.

Don't get me wrong, I love this young NBA. These kids are so skilled it's almost unfair, and athletic in a way that's crazy. Different game now. A better one in a lot of ways, and I mean that.

Here's my thing, though. When I came into the league I didn't know anything, not really, and it was the vets who raised me. Guys like Ervin Johnson and Lindsey Hunter and Ray Allen taught me how to carry myself, how to be a pro on the nights nobody's watching. Taught me about money. Shoot, taught me about golf, about how to be a man. I needed that. Most of these young guys need it too, whether they know it yet or not.

So yeah. Harrison Barnes going back to San Antonio, that one was obvious. Russell Westbrook getting tied to DC? I love it for AJ Dybantsa and them. And if you've got a young roster you're trying to grow, you have to call a Khris Middleton or a Mike Conley. Get somebody in that locker room who's seen it, lived it, and can pass on that knowledge.

They can still give you minutes, sure. But that's not really why you sign them. You bring them in for the kid who's got all the talent in the world and no idea what to do with it yet. The vet pulls him aside when the coaches can't. Shows him the little things nobody teaches you in college. Shows him how to play the game, but also live the life.

Each one teach one. That's how it used to worked in the NBA. Let's make sure the young guys get that same guidance.

Make dribble warmup’s competitive. How many tips can the defense get on the basketball? 20-30 seconds then switch.

Constraints: only left hand dribbles, only right hand dribbles

[Matt Hackenberg @CoachHackGO]

My single favorite zone set atm

"Tiger" | Zone Offense 🐅

It's just hard for zones to see action coming from inside out like this...

By the time they do, they are usually turning and running into the screen

The Unscoutable BLOB

"Swirl" is designed to make the defense wrong

[RedWave Press @RedWavePress]

SHOCKING: A growing number of middle school athletes — mostly boys — are intentionally repeating 8th grade to delay their start in high school, giving themselves another full year to get bigger, stronger, and faster, which in turn dramatically boosts their chances at elite high school spots, college scholarships, and massive NIL deals potentially worth millions.

William La Jeunesse: “Of 8M high school students in sports only 7% will play in college.”

“On the other hand, the [likely] number one pick in this year’s NBA draft, [AJ Dybantsa], did 8th grade twice.”

CRAZY IDEA: How about we let more kids be kids!

I fell in love with this scripture:

“There will come a time when your tears will fall, not because of your troubles, but because God has answered your prayers.”

Attacking 2-3 zone...
🏀 Flash both elbows
🏀 Hit one to engage x5
🏀 Dive the the other

[Coach Tony Miller @tonywmiller]

Drill for Defensive Stops & Kills (3 Stops in a Row) to start practice…

🔒5v5 Halfcourt
🔒Put 10 minutes on the clock
🔒1 Stop = 1 point
🔒1 Kill = 3 points

Set a competitive tone right away and get guys talking and energized.

Here's a small snapshot of some of the SSG's we've been using to teach our players how to play conceptually. This summer we are adding our triggers into our small sided games. 3 vs 3 and 3 vs 2 trigger starts, find the 9 or 7 with a :06 countdown mid-trigger.

[Matt Hackenberg @CoachHackGO]

Flare on one side and Side Spain on the other...

Considering the Side Spain pop option, you have scoring option on both sidelines and the rim

[Matt Hackenberg @CoachHackGO]

Maybe a PERFECT BLOB?

Two inside options, one outside

An easy progression of reads with great spacing
