Stop overcomplicating your drills. Master the minimum before the maximum.
Inside-out footwork. Shot-ready on the catch. Every time.
What drill are your favorite shooting drills? π

Minimum movement. Maximum efficiency.
Most players overcomplicate their footwork. The best shooters strip it down.
Diagonal stepback. Side step. Two directions each.
Your center of gravity does the work β not your feet.
Which side is harder for you?

Stability before strength. Balance before power. Control before chaos.
This is what basketball-specific training actually looks like.

Is James Harden one of the hardest players to guard in the NBA?
So many defensive concepts have gone out the window, need to see structure in game 6 or there will be no game 7.

Most shooting drills are repetitive. Same spot, same form, same reps.
@hoopin_mitch does the opposite with Duncan β every rep is a new problem to solve.
That's the Constraints-Led Approach, and it's why Duncan is in the 98th percentile in catch and shoot.

If you're building a contender, this is the kind of player you start with.
Jaden McDaniels guards anyone, shoots 41% from three, and never needs the ball to impact a game. Lockdown defense elite shooting is the most valuable two-way profile in the modern NBA.

Most NBA players have one skill in the top 10% of the league. Scottie Barnes has eleven.
Five elite offensive skills, four elite defensive skills, plus an elite midrange and finishing game. The rarest profile in the NBA.

The Pistons just won their first playoff series since 2008.
One of the biggest reasons: 16 blocks and 16 steals from Ausar Thompson β the best perimeter defender in the NBA. Defense wins playoff games.

Amen Thompson finished the Rockets-Lakers playoff series at 7. He averaged 44 minutes a game. They still lost.
Here's why every team in the league needs a guy like him β even with the offensive shortcomings.

The best offensive players in the NBA can do two things: create for themselves AND create for others.
Most players can do one. The rare ones do both. Here's how Cade Cunningham makes everyone else's shot easier by being elite at his own.
