From Vince…
After a bad game… I was kind of “in the dumps”. So, the next basketball practice I split the kids up 5 v 5 full court and let them play without my coaching. I just sat there and watched for about 45 minutes.

I was able to see more… you know during a game you miss a lot. Like when you watch a video of the game.

After a while, I, secretly, told my best player (who shoots a lot) that he was not allowed to shoot.. only pass. I discovered a nice 2-1-2 offense with him in the middle.

I also told, secretly, a player that he was not allowed to pass. He had to find a way to score every time he had the ball. This player had a lot of potential but he passed too much, he never took the ball to the hoop. This opened his eyes a little to score some. I only needed about 8 points from him per game.

Well, we went on to win 6 games in a row after that….so, at times we have to stop basketball coaching and see what the kids can do.
