1997 Lecture at Five Star...delivered passionately, clinical excellence combining offense and defense. Only a thousand views: really?
Humility: Greatest player ever at Five Star was Moses Malone. Kicked butt, listened, never a problem.
Teaching matters, not BS.
Are you coachable? Be a sponge.
When trapped, maintain your dribble and stay within the midpoint. Bring the trap down to equalize size. Defines types of passes out of traps...
Two-on-ones. Spacing...maintain dribble...stutter dribble (avoid charge)
Three-on-two. Be Steve Kerr. Shorten the pass and change the angles/move defenders
Feeding the post (angles). The PASSER needs proper angle. Pass from below the foul line. Post from first peg. When fronted, move up the lane one peg (with forearm technique). Play big. Demonstrates alternative fronting in the chest. Always avoid playing at a disadvantage.
Scottie Pippen was the manager for two years at Central Arkansas...because he was a 5'9" point guard in HS.
Pass and relocate...be prepared to catch against the closeout. Be prepared to repost on the inside-outside action to improve position.
The subtle message is finding solutions to HELP your TEAMMATE.
Reading screens. They can't take away everything...but demos ideal defense...he teaches grabbing the screener's shirt (girls resist this technique in my experience). But with effective curl, may often open the screener. When defense cheats the curl, he shows how to reposition screen and BUMP.
Pick and roll (pre ICE coverage). First goal = two dribbles to score; second (guard) is perimeter shot. Illustrates that even great players can LEARN. Gets back to COACHABLE
"The only way you get better is if you do what you can't do." Good players will expose your weaknesses.
Reviews PnR drills for guards at about 1:06 of video (2 dribble to drive, midrange, back off dribble to 3, crossover v trap into layup from both sides).
Gets back to COACHABLE to expand your game but be COACHABLE. Great players are always COACHABLE.
