There is a huge difference in coaching theory and coaching reality.
Competitive 5 on 5 where the losing team sits is the best way to develop real time winning decisions on the court.
Passes need to be on time, on target. and with the right speed of the ball.
What separates good from great is god given talent. What separates great from elite is the willingness to keep improving and keep working and being driven.
Coaches must have ability to communicate, teach, motivate, and connect.
You are always just one good decision away from being in a better place tomorrow.
Caitlin Clark put on a passing clinic in the first quarter. 7 assists in 10 minutes.
The goal of post season workouts should be to get the best at getting better.
Elite passers either set up the defense or react to the defense. All others need to keep it simple.
A turnover is often the other team’s first pass to their fast break.
My daughter treated me to my first Starbucks hot chocolate yesterday. Hated to break it to her that it wasn’t as good as the 7-11 hot chocolate that I had this morning.
Average players go in the gym to just workout. Good players know what they need to work on and embrace it.
It may not be your fault but it is your responsibility.
Simple consistent execution of the basic fundamentals wins in basketball, life, and family. So keep it simple.
Coaching is getting your team to do what you want them to do.

Augusta head coach Dip Metress won his 500th game today. Dip is an elite coach, period. I’ve never met anybody who knows as much about basketball and about coaching as he. And he does better for his players’ long term interests than any coach I’ve ever known.
