Message: [QUOTE="husky429, post: 5306110, member: 6696"] I agree basically 100% on this. I trained for am EYBL team and coached fornthem for years until I felt like offing myself from the travel. I see kids with a bag 16 moves deep, but they can't dribble-pass-relocate playing pickup basketball. They have every finish you could think of, but can't make a strong hand jump stop if a 90lb 5th-grader provides physical defense. Reality is that when you watch the best at any level, their bag is pretty simple. Who was doing anything groundbreakin on that 2024 Huskies team? They weren't... it was just solid, solid fundamentals at every spot. Make open 3s, move the ball and find space, cut when your defender looks off, finish through contact off two feet, know how to close the gate in the mid-post, etc. My training was always A LOT of small sided games or 1v1 with advantage/disadvantage situations built it.
