Basketball Skills & Drills-3rd Edition



 



Great basketball players like Tim Duncan and Dwyane Wade draw oohs and aahs with their spectacular moves. But before those players developed their superstar flair, they built a solid base of fundamental skills in all phases of the game.



Basketball Skills & Drills provides a perfect blueprint for building the foundation that every well-rounded player needs. This special book and DVD package demonstrates each key skill:



  • Player positioning

  • Moving without the ball

  • Shooting

  • Passing, catching, and dribbling

  • Perimeter moves

  • Post moves

  • Defense

  • Rebounding





The skills and 90 drills, coaching tips, and DVD reinforce the skill instruction, emphasize key points, and explain how to correct common errors. And since individual skills are effective only when used within the team concept, the book also covers key team principles for both ends of the court. Tactics for offense, including special situations such as out-of-bounds plays, will improve spacing, ball and player movement, shot selection, and scoring. Defensive tactics emphasize positioning, pressure, and various systems to apply in each area or level of the court.



To be an all-star, you must be fundamentally sound. Basketball Skills & Drills is your guide to becoming a complete player—one who can change the game with great moves and smart play.

Pete Newell’s Playing Big offers a rare opportunity to learn from a
basketball coach who has taught Shaquille O’Neal, Hakeem Olajuwon, and
Bill Walton the finer points of post play and added new inside
dimensions to the perimeter games of Shawn Marion, James Worthy, and
Scottie Pippen. With this book and DVD, Pete Newell and Swen Nater show
how you too can learn and apply the tactics and techniques from the
world’s foremost expert on playing big and dominating the inside game.



Every champion in basketball history has been able to score and defend
in and around the paint. Pete Newell recognized the importance of post
play early in his career, and then he used his techniques to coach
teams to an NCAA championship, an NIT title, and an Olympic gold medal.
His superb teaching skills resulted in players and coaches throughout
the world who sought Newell’s insights and the creation of his Big Man
Camp and Tall Women’s Camp.



Newell’s camps, at which Swen Nater is also an instructor, have become
the gold standard of post play instruction and, until now, have been
reserved for elite players. With Pete Newell’s Playing Big, tap into
the legendary coach’s exclusive knowledge, and take your team to new
heights.
