2 skills players must work on with FORCE and PRECISION: 1. Footwork (square ups, rips, pivots, jabs) 2. Ball Handling (body ball movement) Footwork is the FOUNDATION to build all other skills from, while Ball Handling ADVANCES all other skills.

Been asked what makes Chris Paul a true point guard.. here is the answer. CP3 can play well even if he has 10 points... he leads, orchestrates and defends.. the new age shooting point has to score to be truly affective

Great ways for POINT GUARDS to establish themselves for the “Next Level” 1. Push the pace offensively. 2. Defend the other primary ball handler at a high level. 3. Get teammates open shots. 4. Take and make open 3s. 5. Bring an attitude & energy that makes practice better.

The best players are the best movers. The elite players are the best movers with the ball in their hands. 2 skills every dynamic player needs to work on: 1. Body - Ball Movement 2. Change Pace - Change Direction.

Vital Decisions players must make this off-season… •To hear the truth or listen to comforting lies. •To find a coach who will push you or find a trainer to be your “boy” •To take ownership of your development or just blame circumstances for the lack of it. #BeDifferent

One of the biggest indicators of a MATURE PLAYER… How quickly they modify and adjust behaviors that held them back the previous workout or practice. Mature players do not give themselves a choice when it comes to doing THE NEXT RIGHT THING RIGHT!

Three standards that never change both on and off the court if players want to reach their potential... 1. Willingness to hear the truth and act upon it. 2. Desire to push past "Hard" and "Uncomfortable". 3. Readiness to respond to adversity with a high level of confidence!

Show up. Get addicted to the work. Become obsessive about the details. Do what everyone else won’t do. Prepare to be great.

One of the most telling signs of whether a player is truly bought in to getting better on/off the court is how they responded when... They are confronted... They are told the truth... They are held accountable... Their actions will be so loud...it won't matter what they say!

To succeed in this fast pace, ultra competitive basketball landscape, you must learn to shoot.

Energy Givers vs Energy Takers Players that suck the energy and positivity out of the gym are literally the worst. They are a detriment to themselves, and bring others down with them!
