I saw a video the other day with a coach asking other coaches about what basketball drills and skills are the biggest and quickest “needle movers” for players and teams. I wanted to take it here and ask the same thing. Personally, I have repped some drills and skill work with my players that didn’t seem particularly effective for our team or at least the translation to games/live play wasn’t obvious to my eye. So coaches, if you were limited to working on a just a few drills or skills/fundamentals, what ones would you swear by and consider to be the most effective and quickest “needle movers” for your team?

Spent the weekend watching some good players competing at the MEI. As usual I noticed a few kids who only had scoring on their mind. To the point their teammates were annoyed. You can tell when a kid gets taught at home that scoring is how they will get noticed. This is an age old issue for coaches. As coaches, what has been your most effective way of communicating and changing a selfish players mindset? @Tommy Brown @Mike Erickson @Randy Reddig
