Today's Theme...Developing Your Guards
In the off-season, players need to get better. Here are several pages and drills on how to develop your guards. We'll discuss point guards in another email.
All perimeter players must be able to handle the ball, pass well and make good decisions, shoot the outside shot and pull-up jumper, and dribble-penetrate and finish.
Guard Moves and Skills - important fundamentals that every outside player should learn... triple threat, pivoting, 1-on-1 jab step moves and attacking with the dribble, the "split step", getting open, etc.
Advanced Inside Finishing Moves - Rondo Fake Finish, Euro Step Finish, Pro Hop Finish, Jamal Crawford Finish, Kobe Bryant Pound Pivot Finish, and Steve Nash Back Leg Finish.
