Calling out Individual Skill Trainers

The Last time I checked the game of Basketball is played 5 on 5! Remember to teach them to play with others and to defend and rebound! Otherwise I consider you just as bad for the game as "And One Mix Tapes"! Shot Selection and taking care of the Ball is so important! It is about getting yours!

I was more impressed with Kevin Durant 4th qtr assists

Kevin elevated his teammates by the 2 dimes he dropped for scores! He showed trust in his teammates! Remember the only way to to be Great is by passing, the Russell, Bird, Magic, and Jordan way!

Want to increase your ball-handling very quickly?

As you all know, I am a huge believer and follower of Jeremy Russotti's (1% CLUB Basketball) Millennium Series DVDs. In all of his DVDs, he always has a section on "Hand Quickness" and "Wrist Weight Overload Training". After watching his explanation, and seeing footage of the players he trains, the proof is in the pudding that he may be developing some of the quickest ball-handlers in the world.

Say's Jeremy, "Ball-Handling is by far the easiest skill to teach. The development of ball-handling has to include the proper progressions with a solid curriculum, but really the #1 key to ball-handling is QUICK HANDS. I see ball-handling like boxing - if you have slow hands, you will get knocked out and exposed. In basketball, if you have slow hands, you will get it taken from you or can't progress the ball against a defense".

In his DVDs he makes a great point about the Overload Principle. He states that if you want to increase your muscle mass, you go to a weight facility and overload your muscles with weights. If you want to increase your aerobic conditioning, you overload your heart with running, swimming, stepping, etc. Therefore, why as basketball coaches, do we never overload our basketball players hands during ball-handling drills? Say's Jeremy, "For those that have seen my clinics, they know that we will NEVER step onto the court for our ball-skills work without overloading our hands with weights. Training without them would be maintaining the skill level and speed I currently have. If professionals, high schoolers, etc., are paying me to get them better, I need to get results fast".

Once again, it is great that Jeremy Russotti provides the basketball world with top resources for training. The Wrist weights can be found on his website (www.jglove.com), or can call him for team sales (707) 849-1212. Keep it up Jeremy and can't wait to see what you bring forth next.

Jeremy Russotti Millinnium Unstoppable Offensive Skill Set DOUBLE DVD

I highly recommend Jeremy Russotti New "Millennium Unstoppable Offensive Skill Set" Dvd. I really like this new DVD since it is a Double DVD and has a lot of great teaching footage. For those that don't put two an two together, Jeremy is the inventor of the J-Glove Shooting Aid (www.jglove.com) and founder of Green Room Professional Training (www.1percentclub.org). He does a great job of teaching the "Why" to all his moves and he gives you a move and counter move. Jeremy is a great passionate young teacher of the game. I always get something from him. I look at the kids he works with and they always get better! I would love to clone this Gym Rat teacher and send him around the country! Jeremy understands the how the body relates to the skills of the game. Trailer DVD is below. I also am a huge believer in his Overload Wrist Weight Training concepts and his wrist weights he designed for basketball players. It is a very simple concept, however, after watching the progression of the players he trains, the proof is in the pudding (see trailer footage at bottom video).

Way to go Jeremy another hit Dvd in your Millennium Series!!! Jeremy also just shot his 4th DVD of his Millennium Series this past weekend and he say's it is his best DVD to date (out in a few months).

Wrist Weight Training

The Street stops here movie

The Street stops here movie about St. Anthony's Basketball program featuring Coach Bob Hurley will be on PBS March 31st at 9:00 pm cst. I am looking forward to seeing the Best Coach on the planet at work. The DVD will be available April 6th at Wal-Mart.

Sherlock Holmes was also a Great Baller!

Sherlock Holmes from Mitchell High School class of 1983 was special the Best High School player I have ever seen.

Following up on Espn Outside the Lines

The NBA only has 7 white American born 6'5" and under players in the league. What has happen to the next John Stockton or Mark Price?

Steve Finamore and I will debate anybody on this topic!!

My good friend Steve Finamore and I will debate anybody on American Basketball!!

American kids still rule the game of Basketball

I just got back from Chicago and Milwaukee seeing some of the best players in the country. Our kids have improved a ton on shooting the rock. Don't tell me about the European method of teaching Basketball we invented it and teach it better than anybody!!! Congratulations to the World Champions U-19 USA team!!!

The J-Glove Shooting Aid is a great new teaching tool!!

Jeremy Russotti's J-Glove is a great complement to the Star Shooter. Finally a Shooting Aid to help the Follow-through. The J-Glove in my humble opinion is the Best Basketball Shooting Training Aid of the New Millennium. I saw Jeremy's prize pupil Josh Akognon in Omaha last year in the NCAA opening round, Josh was incredible and I had never heard about him and he put a great Shooting display on against Wisconsin when he scored 31 points against the always tough Coach Bo Ryan defense. I personally used the J-Glove today with great results with various level players and was very impressed with much improved results that I saw today. The J-Glove sells itself and Jeremy is a tremendous young Teacher and Coach of the game. I highly endorse The J-Glove and The DVD and I look forward to watching the Ball handling DVD as well.

The website is www.jglove.com, or if you are interested in reviewing other resource services offered by Jeremy's "1% CLUB Basketball Services", refer to www.1percentclub.org. Below is the Trailer DVD footage for the "Millennium J-Glove Shooting DVD", as well as the "Millennium Ball-Handling DVD".

USA USA we are back!!!

Kobe is great down the stretch and D Wade lifted us in the first half. Lebron is a great leader. Coach K does a great job of leadership and motivation and the new title of his leadership book will be "How to lead the Best". Great Job by all the team and total team effort. A classy group who deserved to win the Gold. Jerry Colangelo did it the right way.

Shooting was also a Major Factor in the Celtic's Win

When Doc Rivers went to 5 shooters on the floor, that made it so tough on the Lakers. Garnett had single coverage in the post and Ray Allen and Paul Pierce were able to get to the hoop. Shooters are very overlooked in the game.

Summer Basketball is a Major Factor in the decline of Fundamentals

Summer is here, but I have major concerns for my favorite game:
1. More high school coaches and AAU coaches are concerned more about playing games and putting in their systems, then working on skills.

2. America has lack of shooters and shooters need time in the gym to shoot.

3. America has lack of Point Guards. So that tells me that Dena Evans Point Guard College and Dave Devenzio National Point Guard Camp does not get to work with our best prospects in the country, probably due to a kid's lack of time and funds.

4. All camps for the most part of been shorten recently due to cost.

5. Shooting, Passing, Dribbling, and Footwork have taken a back seat during the summer months.

6. There is no Basketball hierarchy any more and what mean by that is younger players playing with older players.

7. Lack of Mental and Physical toughness in kids is frightening.

8. Hating to lose is something out of the past.

Lason Perkins DVD's

Lason has 2 new DVD's on the A-set Offense and Secrets of International Basketball. I highly recommend both these outstanding DVD's. You can purchase both these at the Basketball Sense website. The DVD's are 2 of the best offensive systems DVD's on the market.

Team USA strikes Gold!!!

It is great to see basically our best players playing together in FIBA Basketball. Let's hope that next year we have the same team represent us in the Olympics next year. With Kobe, Lebron, and Carmelo playing together makes us the team to beat. But the key to this team is Jason Kidd. The Team got the leader it desperately needed in Kidd. How about the 3pt shooting from Lebron and Carmelo.

Skip Prosser a great coaching mentor

I having a tough year with my friend Matt Masiero, Alicia Richardson my son's fiance, and my son's real father being murdered and now Skip Prosser passing away. As a young coach at Five-star Basketball camp I had gotten to know Skip, he had always been great to me. He never big timed anybody. He was great mentor for young coaches in this business. Thank you Skip for a being a better person and being a great coach. I had the opportunity to coach his son Mark at Five-star and only wish that Skip could see Mark become a Head Coach. The Prosser family will be in my prayers.

Fathers of High School Full Court Pressure

In the current Vance Walberg craze of Full Court pressure and attacking offense. I would like to tell you about 2 High School coaches that have influence this current craze that is Ralph Tasker of Hobbs High School, Hobbs, New Mexico a Hall of Fame Coach who won over 1,000 games in his career in a state that has game limits and he also won 12 State Championships. Coach Tasker in my opinion started the original Match-up Press and press on made or missed shots. His 1969-70 team averaged 114.6 points a game which is the national record for scoring average and out of the top ten all time scoring average teams 4 out of the 10 are Tasker teams. Another Hall of Fame coach who deserves credit for this is Coach Fred Williams of Beaumont Hebert High School in Beaumont, Texas who won 4 state championships in Texas. Both of these coaches deserves credit for their styles of play that would later influence Coach Kenny Hoffpauir and Charles Breithaupt with playing uptempo Basketball. Coach Hoffpauir coaches in Texas, but also coached in the Fresno, California area in the 1990's where he influenced then Coach Vance Walberg who was at Clovis West High School in California. Coach Breithaupt coached at Hardin-Jefferson High School in Sour Lake, Texas and his team averaged 109.4 points a game. He and his formers players and now coaches at Hardin-Jefferson and Kountze have won 5 State Championships.

The Live Period is beginning

I wish NCAA would give more thought to giving more time for College coaches to evaluate players this month flies by. Coaches are running the country like mad men. Kids from smaller states get killed by the lack of evaluation time.
