5 Things in Basketball
  • Rebound
  • Defend
  • Dribble
  • Pass
  • Shoot

*If one of these does not work, then try one of the other 4!*

One of my favorite game day quotes I use when I know my team needs to play tough.

Competition is like wrestling a gorilla. You don't stop wrestling a gorilla when you are tired. You stop wrestling a gorilla when the gorilla is tired. Be the gorilla. Rebound like a gorilla.

Drills - Ideas To Think About and Try In Practice


  • 3 Man with medicine ball or with basketball with water in it
  • 3 passes to get it down, not allowed to hit the ground
Every team will miss at least 1/2 of their shots so why don't we spend more time on rebounding.


80% of rebounding is done below the rim
