As a shooter, a shot fake should be your best friend. As a coach, teaching your players the right way to shot fake will open up so many driving opportunities and open shots.

When you work on getting better at something, don’t do it half speed. - Ray Allen

High D2 basketball looks like better quality hoops than a lot of low Major D1 games 🤷‍♂️

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

You may have had some disappointments, but don’t settle where you are. Don’t give up on what God put in your heart. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. Keep believing, keep dreaming, keep trying. You’re going to see what God promised you.

Two GREAT shooters..... Two UNSELFISH players.....

"I've always encouraged him to coach me as if I was a rookie... But with expectation of pointing little things out, keeping me accountable for those details, and how I need to perform every single night." - @StephenCurry30

Don’t make a habit out of choosing what feels good over what’s actually good for you.

[Phil Beckner @PhilBeckner]

One of the biggest keys to keep improving your skill set during the season might be “narrowing your focus”.

Choose 1 or 2 specific things you can work on daily and be relentless about doing it!

High Clarity = High Performance

[Coach TJ Jones @nbnbball]

Greatness is not cheap, it comes with a price. Some are willing to pay that price and other are not.

[Eric Musselman @EricPMusselman]

The best players go through practice like it's a game. When game time comes, the game becomes just another set of reps.

[Basketball HQ @BasketballHQ]

Be willing to hear the truth. It won't always be easy, but it is key for real growth as a player.

[Eric Musselman @EricPMusselman]

Every player should sit down and ask themself, "Am I a defensive threat?" The more positions you can guard on the floor, the more valuable you become to a coach.

Kobe Bryant (@kobebryant) on Building Habits -

"If you want to play at an excellent level, if you want to do something excellent, you have to be excellent all the time... It's a way of life... When excellence becomes a habit, that's just who you are."

[Lecrae @lecrae]

Worry less, pray more.

Be grateful you have breath before you use it to complain.

Set a goal. Accomplish it.

Help someone who can’t pay you back.

JJ Redick TIMING clip. Defender locking JJ into screen, JJ holds his spot until in line with vision of passer. JJ sprints into pass / meets pass for separation.

You can't pursue comfortability and greatness at the same time.

You will never be more Alive than when you give something Everything you have.

[Jon Gordon @JonGordon11]

Teams often break down because of bad communication. They give up because of discouragement, lose momentum because they don’t have a vision and purpose, and crumble because of negativity and jealousy. The answer is to become a positive, united, purpose driven, selfless team.
