Nash shines in running the break, but how do his teammates know where
to go to get open to receive his passes? Orlando’s Dwight Howard is a
tremendous talent in the post, but how has he improved and added new
dimensions to his game? And how is it that Utah’s Deron Williams and
Carlos Boozer run the screen-and-roll as smoothly as Jazz legends John
Stockton and Karl Malone did years before? Coaching. Yes, even in a league loaded with superior athletic talent,

league, those coaching skills are more diverse and better honed than
ever before.
Now NBA Coaches Playbook takes you into the practice
sessions and sideline huddles with detailed Xs and Os and more from the

Phil Jackson, Mike D’Antoni, Avery Johnson, Stan Van Gundy, George
