Skill development ≠ isolated block practice. It may include some isolated block practice, but skill development is not limited to isolated block practice.

Ill be honest, i hate whenever i'm in a pickup group that refuses to play with anything less than 5v5. 1.) Do You Even love the Game? 2.) Don't You want to get better? 3.) Most of the time halfcourt basketball resembles a small sided game

Children do not need technique training... I repeat, children do not need technique training... They don't need sprint technique... They don't need agility technique... They don't need sports specific training... How do you teach technique to an athlete who's still…
Watched a “skills” practice run by a well paid “skills director”. 12u kids. Timed the work to rest. Guy set up an obstacle course, put 15 kids in line, talked a ton about “technique”. The worst part is other coaches watching and thinking this is quality.
Here in Lithuania, typical basketball fans think that we need more coaches like this, that they could teach new generation players to be more skilled individually and better at playing 1v1 because we don't have individually strong players at the moment.

Unsolicited advice for the MS/HS coach developing a program: Prioritize PE over Pee Wee Play Tag Play Keep Away Play 21 All offensive drills need defense All defensive drills need offense Take days off
@playmak3rs would like a word.
I will tell you this THREE STEP may be the last hope for this entire youth basketball new movement. …
@coachk424 @playmak3rs AAU has created deep rooted problems from the parents to the kids. Expectation vs reality. It’s craziness. Kids don’t learn the game… we have failed in allowing this to happen. If you coach youth teach fundamentals, teach them the game, bring joy allow them to build confidence!
With recruiting season starting...let's stop with the "they're too small to play HERE" thing. Next couple tweets are a collection of the POY's in mid-major conferences who are sub 5'9". Don't let "too small" be the deterrent to why you don't recruit a kid who impacts winning.
@playmak3rs And even if you travel, that doesn't guarantee improvement.
This has all been solved - @playmak3rs Just have to call Playmakers are being developed all over the country and actually enjoying the journey And so are the coaches And so are the parents
So now we have complained about the problems for years: Parents Refs AAU Coaches Too Many Trainers ( truth) - Kids are more skilled than ever - They don't play great basketball The European System is better (it is) So how do we fix it?
Invest in @playmak3rs - we have the solution.

Truly “transforming” basketball
To “change the game” it’s not going to take a bunch of highly produced content It’s about changing the experience We have done that The product speaks for itself because the experience speaks for itself Playmakersleague.com
@3triple_threat @SeanCriderBB @_AndyFitzgerald @playmak3rs Understood. That's a social/system issue, and, as I have argued, schools paid for by taxes should be available for the community to use in non-school hours for free or reasonable fees, not viewed as fundraising to compensate for other budget deficits (or sitting unused).
@SeanCriderBB @_AndyFitzgerald I agree. It’s probably fourth of five relatively easy changes. 1. Start with 3v3 (@playmak3rs) 2. Play on lower hoops longer 3. Use smaller balls longer 4. High school shot clock 5. High school 40-minute games. Other changes are more structural/systemic/societal, thus harder.
USA: We need to change basketball development to be more like international development. Let’s start by adopting FIBA rules for HS, AAU & NCAA. USA: No, not that.
Some interesting comments from Adam Silver on the state of basketball, youth development and the NBA's role in that. Is he foreshadowing some type of NBA Academy type program in the US? Clearly, he's not thrilled with the way some Americans are entering the NBA.
@coachMinor3 @mitch_marc @JUSTICEMITCH11 @hoopdreamsbball @NikStreng @AlanSteinJr @deebrown11 @NIL_CoachIsh @PlayCollegeBas1 @U8Training I’d just follow the playmakersleague.com guidelines from the ‘00s. @playmak3rs
Put it in the Louvre. Our @WA_Athletics student section is better than yours. See you all next weekend at HOME. #RunAsOne #DefendTheHill
@CoachKingsbury @JohnCarrier42 @playmak3rs I'd also argue coaches not playing every player at U10 age groups is a much bigger problem than zone defenses, especially in terms of learning to play the game. How does one learn when he/she never/rarely sees the court?
@CoachKingsbury @JohnCarrier42 @playmak3rs But, to the larger point, I don't know how one player dominating the ball all game against a single defender helps players learn to play the game any more than playing against zones. Coaches dislike zones because shot allocation is harder to control.
@CoachKingsbury @JohnCarrier42 At U10s, concentrating on zones obfuscates the bigger problems: ball size, basket height, 10 players... If people do not want to address these issues, zone or no zone really doesn't matter to me, as you're already focused on adult goals. Play 3v3. @playmak3rs
