Aggressive, no-nonsense defense is a trademark of Jay Wright's teams. On this video you will see how Villanova's man-to-man defense is built from the ground up with on-court demonstrations and key drills.
Because of the great talent Villanova faces every game, Wright focuses on drills that will help contain quick, skilled ball handlers.
This excellent teaching tool progresses from individual defensive stance, to one-on-one, two-on-two, and three-on-three in the half- and full-court. Click on 'Read more...' to see the 2 videos!
"... Basketball players, announcers, and fans all believe that in certain games, or at certain times in a game, a player may become “hot” – he can’t miss, he’s on fire, he’s in the zone, etc. At that point, that player is shooting especially well, so his team should get him the ball. Well, say the statisticians, if you actually look at shooting percentages, you’ll see that his shooting percentage after making three consecutive shots is the same as it always is.
In other words, if a player’s shooting percentage is 50%, and he hits five consecutive shots, that’s just random variation – there’s a 1/32 chance of that happening for any given sequence of five shots – so there’s no particular reason to think he’ll make the next one. Case closed. ..."

Complex as he is colorful, Phil Jackson has led an improbable basketball life, marching to the tune of his own iconoclastic drummer and managing to win at every level along the way.
He doesn't think like an average jock, nor does he approach his game like one: just ask Michael Jordan or Shaquille O'Neal, who've played better for him than for anyone else.
Roland Lazenby couldn't have come up with a better title for his compelling exploration of what makes Jackson tick and how he evolved into one of the most successful and driven coaches in NBA history; for Jackson, the joy of his game is every bit as cerebral and psychological as it is physical.
His aim, he says, is to help his players "strengthen the muscle of their minds."
Using live on-court demonstration, Wootten takes you on a guided tour of his most effective full-court man-to-man and zone defenses.
He teaches full-court man-to-man defenses which focus on ball denial on the inbound pass, primary traps in the corners, and secondary traps from varying directions.
Wootten then teaches his 1-3-1 and 2-2-1 full-court zone defenses. Next he shows full-court trapping drills to teach players to communicate and to keep them from becoming overly-aggressive.
Great for junior high and high school-level coaches!
"... 6.26% of all NBA games are tied at the end of regulation play. And games decided by just a few points are surprisingly rare: It is more likely to have a tie than for the game to be decided by two points, and a tie is more than twice as likely as a one-point difference. These statistics are quite dramatic when you see them visually ..."

Alley-oop Pass from Mid Court
Wednesday, 24 June 2009
"... A1 makes evidently an alley-oop pass from mid court in a fast break... the receiver does not catch the ball and it hits the rim and a defender grabs the "rebound"...
Is it a bad pass turnover case ? Is it a missed shot ? The defender takes a rebound or makes a steal ?

"... Since the N.B.A.’s inception, the performance of its players has been measured by a somewhat archaic rubric system. Points, assists and rebounds — the plays that meet the eye — are quantified, but the game’s data supply does not expand much beyond the limited horizon of those meager numbers.
The N.B.A. has been faced with the problem of defining what, exactly, is defense? Or, was that goaltending call made correctly? ..."

"... A well known game situation: 2 seconds to go, 2 points ahead and last free throw. The player intentionally misses the free-throw according with the indications from the bench to avoid a complete 2 seconds possession for the opponent. He succeed and they win the game. Can this action be registered in such way that we don't "punish" the shooter's Tendex with a -1 because of the missed free throw ? ...?"
