Good Teams

Kevin Eastman says that great offense is multiple actions and great defense is multiple efforts. That translates to predictable actions for 'good teams'. 

What do good teams do? 

  • Good teams don't allow easy baskets (transition, put backs, layups, free throws from bad fouls). 
  • Good teams make excellent decisions. 
  • Good teams take care of the basketball (limit turnovers).
  • Good teams take better shots.
  • Good teams pass well leading to easier shots. 
  • Good teams communicate on both ends of the floor. 
  • Good teams are in exceptional condition. 
  • Good teams are mentally tough, disciplined, and compete. 
  • Good teams care more about the scoreboard than the scorebook. 
  • Good teams P U S H Through. They have passion, unity, servant leadership, humility, and thankfulness. 
  • Good teams focus on how WE GO, not ego.
