Hey, This Professional Coach Agrees With Me

Okay, I don't this professional coach. I've never talked with him, never met him. But I was talking with a guy the other day who had played for this professional coach. And, no, I don't know this guy, we're not friends, I just met him once.

Anyway, we were talking about how so many of the high school coaches - and AAU and youth coaches - believe the system makes play, and not the players. He told me that when he had played for this coach (yes, all of you know the name) they used only 3 entries. And they never, ever used a pattern. No, what they worked on offensively was true motion, reading the defense and reacting, taking what the defense gives you and exploiting it.
