organized in their presentation of drills as
they are in their camp. This book is a great
contribution to your Basketball library." --

in the country, I consider myself an expert
on sports books. Nowhere on my shelves is there
anything approaching the value of these drills
for youngsters and young coaches. It's the best
drill book in America." -- George Raveling

there's now a high priority on the skill parts

who want to learn the game the way it should
be taught." -- Rick Pitino
