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.

***"Brian McCormick's philosophy is an absolute game changer for shooting development. This book provides easy to implement ideas to evolve skill development for players and coaches at all levels." - Kenny Atkinson, NBA Head Coach*** In 2009, I published 180 Shooter, which described my teaching methodology and drill progressions as a private shooting coach in the prior decade. A few players set NCAA shooting records and became All-Americans, but others struggled, and I examined the cause. I attributed some of their failings to my coaching and workouts, and I quit private coaching. Over the last decade, I worked with teams as a head coach and a consultant. I have coached very good shooters - one finished second nationally in 3-point shooting percentage and another set the college's record for 3FGs - and very good shooting teams: 3rd in 3FG/G (9.7), 6th in 3FG% (37.4%), and 9th in FT% (72.6%). Evolution of 180 Shooter chronicles the evolution of my thinking over the last decade and challenges the prevalent shooting dogma. My greatest changes have been to re-define game-like shots and appreciate the environment's role in developing shooters. This is not a technique or drill book; it focuses on our culture of shooting - from our practice, to the extra shots, to the comfort and confidence - which develops shot makers. - ***"If you coach basketball at any level, read and study Brian McCormick's writing: It will re-calibrate your view of the game. You will think differently about basketball and how to teach the game to others." - Lindell Singleton, Head Coach: The Game Matters AAU***
