Basketball Coaching Book Review: “Destination Basketball” by Andrew Hemminger and Dave Bensch
Coaches,
I had some time over Christmas break to do a little bit of reading when I wasn’t watching “Dora” or the “Backyardigans” with my little girl. I have to admit that I have been swamped with book reviews and dvd reviews so I finally caught up on the break.
I was sent a book named “Destination Basketball” and it isn’t a basketball coaching book, but just a book for college basketball fans. It was a really interesting read and I couldn’t put it down. It is about two college student who on a shoe-string budget decided to meet 29 of the best basketball coaches in the country. It took 23 road trips, 421 days, 1,134 phone calls, 2,314 emails, 27, 125 miles driven to compile this book.
Here is why I wasn’t a basketball coach and just a college basketball fan that I would want to read this book. The concept was to not ask about a single play, player, game or season, but their methods, their influences, their experiences, and their time within basketball. I love reading books on coaches whether it is basketball or football. I couldn’t put this book down, because it was really funny to see how Andew Hemminger and Dave Bensch went on this path to talk with the best 29 basketball coaches in america. They spoke to all 29 basketball coaches in person and there were no interviews given on the phone, letters, emails, or faxes. In these times, where college basketball coaches have non-stop schedules that is amazing.
They took pictures of themselves with each coach except for Jamie Dixon. They forgot the camera and the SID department sent them a picture. Each interview gives background on the basketball coach and then they go through a series of questions. They didn’t use the same questions on each coach. I thought that it was a tremendous idea and wish that I could have went on the trips. The book reads like you are on the trip.
One of the interviews was John Chaney, formerly of Temple University and he said this of the interview. “It is more of a human kind of interview where the question touches you a little bit more, and it gives you a relaxing feeling when you are able to talk about some of your experiences”.
]]>
I can’t say enough on how I thought that Andrew and Dave did a tremendous job on their book and I really appeciate them sending me a copy to read. I would give this book a 5 out of 5 stars. It is a tremendous book for college basketball fans who want some insight on 29 of the best basketball coaches in the country.
Coach Peterman
PS: Here are some excerpts and at the bottom of the article is where you can find the book.
from the JOHN WOODEN STORY…
We spotted a nearby elevator and figured it was where he would
appear. With time to assess the situation before the doors opened
and despite being so close, we still could not believe that Coach
Wooden was on his way down to greet us. With a ding, the metal
doors swung open and there he stood with the assistance of a
wooden cane, dressed in a button down shirt, slacks and a
UCLA-blue vest. We shook his hand and introduced ourselves as
the doors closed behind us.
_______________________________________________________
from the DEAN SMITH STORY…
Trying to thwart off any mishaps in transit, we left the hotel
more than 90 minutes ahead of our scheduled time and
headed toward the Dean E. Smith Center to meet Dean E. Smith,
which was less than six miles from our hotel.
_______________________________________________________
from the THAD MATTA INTERVIEW…
Who have been the biggest influences on you, in and
out of hoops?
Matta: Obviously my mom and dad. My dad was a coach
and an athletic director, and all I ever wanted in life was to be
him. I wanted to coach in a little town in Illinois because we had
such a great life.
_______________________________________________________
from the BILLY DONOVAN STORY…
Honestly, it took us 373 days to land an interview with him, which
when you think about it is a great sign for the state of college
basketball. It would not be good if he were relatively non-busy
and his time was easily accessible.
_______________________________________________________
from the BILL SELF INTERVIEW…
This job is described as your dream job, as it would be for a
lot of people. Can you sum up the job as the head coach at KU?
Self: Definitely it is everything I thought it would be, maybe
even better than I thought it would be, and I thought it would be
great. If I could sum up anything, the right word would be
caretaker, because it is such an honor and great responsibility to
be a caretaker of a program with such great names such as Naismith,
Dean Smith and Chamberlain. It is an awesome responsibility to sit
in that chair.
_______________________________________________________
from the MIKE KRZYZEWSKI STORY…
When the transition time came, we followed Jon and Coach K out
into the lobby area and waited as Coach K spoke momentarily with
several other people. As he turned around, Jon introduced us, which
was followed by the extension of a right hand and
“Hi guys. Mike Krzyzewski.”
_______________________________________________________
from the RICK BARNES STORY…
With a 100 guesses I bet you couldn’t come up with where we were
able to secure some time with Coach Barnes. I’m pretty confident
that if you have bothered to take 100 cracks at it you would not
have put the Cracker Barrel restaurant off I-40’s Exit 125 in Hickory,
North Carolina, on your list.
_______________________________________________________
from the JIM CALHOUN INTERVIEW…
What do you hope your players take away from their
experience with you?
Calhoun: I hope that they understand that to be good at
anything you have to accept working hard. That we set a precedent
and standard basketball-wise, academically, socially, etc. You are
going to have to work and no one is just going to hand anything
over to you.
_______________________________________________________
from the ROY WILLIAMS STORY…
Sometimes in meeting coaches, we were thrown right into the fire
and didn’t have that nervous period of anticipation time. In this
case, things worked out beautifully. We waited for about 10 minutes
in the office alone before a nearby door opened and Coach Williams
emerged.
_______________________________________________________
from the GENE KEADY STORY…
Informing us that we were the first strangers that he had ever
invited into his home, he also let us know that his wife was in the
back bedroom with a .38 revolver under her pillow just in case.
We think he was kidding, but we weren’t completely certain at that
moment. Remembering his intimidating demeanor on the sidelines,
Coach Keady was the exact opposite, nothing short of extremely
kind for the entire two-hour conversation.
_______________________________________________________
from the TOM IZZO INTERVIEW…
Izzo: I am not sure that I want to be patient because
I have a small window with my players. I have at most four years
with them, and a lot of times it determines the girl they marry and
the life they will live, by what you do in college and the image you
portray, and that is all in that little window. I always hear about
having patience, but patience is something I don’t know if I want
to have, I would rather have understanding. Everybody is going to
move at a different speed. But the venue I am in, with how long
you get to graduate, how long you get to become an NBA player,
how long you get to win a national championship, how long you
get to set your footprint in the sand here, that doesn’t have any
patience, so how can I?
If you are going to play basketball, you understand which you need to place a lot of effort into practice and coaching. Your capacity to motivate oneself and have commitment to coaching will ultimately determine the outcome. You have to train with all the same intensity as you play your games. If you would like results, then retain on reading to uncover what you are able to do to get what you want and elevate your game.
Injuries are equally important with basketball training as they are when you’re playing a real game. You can hurt yourself or get hurt in so many different ways when you’re training, working out, or playing in a game. Through no fault of your own, you can sustain a severe injury that can end your season, or further ability to play the game. However, there are training approaches you can use that will help your body be more resistant to injury. If there is any one area that so many people tend to skip in a workout is an effective pre-workout stretching session. This is simply smart training because it greatly reduces any chance of physical injury. Do your very best to stay focused on what you’re doing whether it’s training or during an actual game. If you are truly serious about this, then you will find a way to be dedicated to your own success and basketball training. That means total commitment to fulfilling your end of the deal by never missing a practice. You wouldn’t want you doctor to be only half-trained, therefore you make sure you put all your heart into your own training. If you are serious about basketball, you have to make practice and training a priority in your life. While natural talent can certainly be helpful, it is really your attitude towards training that is the biggest factor in how much progress you make in your game.
The key to strength and endurance is a strong body that is well nourished, and now we’re talking about proper nutrition. If you want to have more energy every day, then spread out your meals and make them smaller and more frequent. You do want to avoid losing a lot of weight for basketball, that is assuming your weight is basically ideal. Playing basketball burns a lot of energy, and what you do not want to happen is to lose too much weight. On the other hand, if you desire to add more weight, then the best approach is by eating healthy foods and avoiding the junk food menus. Basketball training involves a combination of practicing drills, physical conditioning, mental preparation and nutrition. You can realize tremendous results from approaching every aspect of your playing, physical fitness, and psychological mindset. Keep the above basketball training suggestions in mind, and remember that the more time you devote to staying in top condition, the better your performance will be on the court.
The Checkerboard Coaching Technique SM for High School Basketball Coaches
Daniel C. Bryndle Author
We all know what a checkerboard is. To start take the imaginary board you have and fill each space with the portion of your game you want to improve or analyze. After your board is filled with as many spaces as you care to fill, chose the 20 percent of those items that are the most critical to your performance and place them in sequence from most important to least. Now take the most important or first on the list and ask yourself what is the most effective 20 percent aspect of your performance. Understand that area and expand it. Expand the opportunity to use it next in the game as you now recognize what it is.
I have one real life practical application from a championship high school basketball coach. This coach who’s name shall not be mentioned came to coaching as a teacher and coached for many years in Upstate New York. I had the opportunity to talk with him years after his career ended. I explained the Checkerboard Coaching Technique SM to him. He immediately said he used it to win the state championships he won, and did not realize it. The truth is he applied the Law of the Significant few to his players and where they shot from on the court, and did not realize there was such a Law.
]]>
Here is how he applied it. He realized after years of coaching that players had a favorite spot to shoot from and almost never missed from that spot. Each player had a different spot they were accurate from. He had the equipment assistant watch in practice and mark where each player made shots from in practice on a piece of paper. Once he had every players best spot he shot from and made the basket he instructed all the players on the team to give that player the ball to shoot when he was on that spot. He had five players on the court with five separate spots that they were very accurate from. Each player knew the other players spot. They would run all over the court, stop at the spot they were best at scoring from during the game and when the opportunity presented itself, the other players knew it and passed to that player and swoosh.
A state championship was born. If you try this with your team you should gain similar results. Coach, maybe you should give this a try. Apply it to new areas of the game as well. I wish you and your team a championship too!!
Basketball is a great game to play for children. As a parent, you may have played basketball in college and would want to coach your kid’s team. When doing coaching, you have to give equal time for all team players. This is important so the kids who do not want to be there may rekindle their interest in the game.
As a coach, you have to teach the kids the basic skills of doing lay ups, shooting drills and also defense drills. A simple training drill is to have the kids stand in line and have them take turns to do free throws, offensive moves and lay ups.
]]>
To be a good basketball player, the player should know how to play both defensive and offensive position. The basketball drills are important because it helps the players to learn and know about the basics of the game. It also helps to foster and development skills that they’ll require to play the game. The kind of essential skills are dribbling, teamwork, lay ups, passing etc.
When conducting training with the team, double drilling is a good warm up drill. The drill can improve the coordination and concentration of the basketball players. Speed dribbling can also be conducted to increase the speed of the dribbler. It helps the player to move quickly down the court and it also decreases the chance of ball being stolen by the opposite player.
The ping pong drill can be used to improve the alertness of the players. Players have to be aware of the surroundings on the court while playing. Drills must be taught to the beginners in the proper form and with the right technique.
Children playing basketball can improve quickly if the coach knows about the strong points of each individual player.
Basketball is one of the most popular youth sports for many reasons, but undoubtedly the creativity involved is a driving force why it’s fun and exciting for kids to play, coaches to teach, and fans to watch. There’s always an opportunity to surprise the defense or offense either with clever dribbling moves, strategically moving without the ball, deceptively getting your shot off, or executing innovative & trick plays.
Practicing set plays in your youth basketball practice can be tedious and repetitive though so it’s important for the coach to find ways to make it interesting and more fun to keep the team engaged, especially with youth basketball players whose attention spans are often short.
Below are some tips to coaching basketball set plays as well as some basketball offensive and defensive plays for youth basketball teams of all ages. You can also find many good free youth basketball set plays and drills online at websites like Weplay.com.
Basketball Coaching Tips: Set Plays
Offensively, the key to executing plays efficiently in games is through tons of repetition in practice so that every player knows exactly what they’re doing by muscle memory. It’s also important that each player knows the role of every other player in the play. In practice, have each player practice each position of the play to make sure your offense runs without any mistakes no matter the situation. This way if the play breaks down, your team will not panic and players will still be able to execute if they’re out of position.
It’s helpful to diagram all the plays in a playbook and give them to each member of the team so they can study them at home or during the day when they have some free time. If you want to be tough in practice, quiz members of the team about the plays, and if they get the answer wrong…time for some suicide sprints! That should only be for the more advance youth basketball teams though; you want to keep practice fun and comfortable for the beginners so they stay with it.
As a coach it’s important to be creative with your offensive & defensive basketball strategies to not only surprise the opponent but also to keep practice fun and engaging for your team. Even if you never plan to use them, the team will appreciate practicing a trick play from time to time to stay loose and keep things interesting.
Another way to keep basketball practice fun is to break your team up into two teams and then design separate last second shot plays for each team to practice on opposite sides of the court. After they have mastered their plays, have the teams square off and try to execute them against each other so the element of surprise is still in place. Running scrimmages at the end of practice this way is a good way to end on a fun note.
Youth Basketball Offensive Plays
Basketball Motion Offense: Ideal for beginner youth basketball teams, the motion offense is a generic term for any offense that uses court movement, cuts to the ball or the basket, and good screen setting. The one thing that separates the Motion offense from others is that it is quite flexible; you don’t have to have set plays every time you bring the ball down the court. Instead, the Motion Offense is focused on teaching players to use a basic set of rules for their movements, and then to react to what is being done defensively on the court.
Out of bounds: For example, the “Stack” Out-of-Bounds Basketball Set Play is a great play for inbounding underneath the offensive basket. Learn to execute this play in practice and use it during basketball games to bring the ball in from out-of-bounds and set your team up for an opportunity to score a basket.
Fast Break Basketball Drill: The fast break is a great way to score baskets quickly and is the fastest way to transition from defense to offense, but it takes a lot of practice to execute this basketball drill correctly. This basketball drill shows that the rebounder should pass to the outlet player, who then gets the ball to the middle of the court; his teammates should fill the lanes staying wide while the guard dribbles down the center to the free throw line. The last two players are trailers and cut to the inside looking for a pass from the outside lanes.
Youth Basketball Defensive Plays
Man-to-Man Denial Defense: In this denial defense basketball strategy, players must be in a good defensive stance using short quick steps and their peripheral vision to stay close to their defender while also knowing where the ball is at all times. This basketball defensive strategy teaches defensive players how to properly cut off the passing lane when he or she is one pass away from the basketball and trying to deny their man from receiving it. Make sure to coach against the common mistake of allowing the opponent to get in for a backdoor basket.
Zone Defense: There are several types of zone defenses to learn, but the most common and easiest for beginners to learn is the 2-3 zone where two guards protect the top of the key on opposite sides, two forwards defend the opposite block areas and the center protects the middle of the paint. Depending on where the ball is, each player rotates to protect their open area, but never following an individual out of their zone. Communication is key to letting teammates know where the offensive players are and are moving to without the ball. Defenders guard their area, not a particular individual.
Playing basketball isn’t all about relying on one’s skills and knowledge of the game. It further requires teamwork. A player will be unable to score for the team if the rest fail to cooperate in the venture. More so, basketball coaching is an integral ingredient in bringing success for the team. Can just anybody do the coaching? If one has no talent for it, he won’t be able to be an effective coach.
It is significant that playing basketball should focus on the offensive and defensive sides. As coaches, they become the responsible individuals for setting the tables for these routines. Both the training in the offense and defense will not only mold the players to look their best and bring the ball to the basket but enough knowledge in these arenas as emphasized more by basketball coaching will retain the team’s being organized and composed as well as make use of tactics that will work up the opponent’s weaknesses for their own advantage.
If you take an interest in basketball coaching, you’ve got to educate yourself with the proper timing and tactics. Achieving a certain expertise on these elements will heighten your own team’s chances of scoring and eventually winning the game. Take note of these pointers when coaching:
Ensure a solid commitment to basketball coaching. If you aren’t directed by your commitment and determination, then your basketball coaching goals will remain a dream that floats around never to be realized.
Get the proper training for yourself. It will be advantageous for you to undergo training from a reputed basketball coach who can instill in you the values and necessary tips for coaching.
Get a grip on the system. Basketball coaching means learning the ropes of the game. With a keen understanding of it, you will soon be geared towards the procedures that will make everything easy and possible for you and your team.
Keep an eye on your goals. Focus, perseverance, confidence, and acceptance are the key elements to acheiveing your goals when coaching.
Dream, plan, and work on it. Your dreams can materialize if you have the willpower to do so.
There is no other being who can direct the team towards success other than you. Your basketball coaching techniques and pointers when embedded into the hearts and minds of the players will surely inspire all of them to bring victory home.

Basketball Coaching website: www.mensbasketballhoopscoop.blogspot.com
Coaches,I had some time over Christmas break to do a little bit of reading when I wasn’t watching “Dora” or the “Backyardigans” with my little girl. I have to admit that I have been swamped with book reviews and dvd reviews so I finally caught up on the break.I was sent a book named “Destination Basketball” and it isn’t a basketball coaching book, but just a book for college basketball fans. It was a really interesting read and I couldn’t put it down. It is about two college student who on a shoe-string budget decided to meet 29 of the best basketball coaches in the country. It took 23 road trips, 421 days, 1,134 phone calls, 2,314 emails, 27, 125 miles driven to compile this book.Here is why I wasn’t a basketball coach and just a college basketball fan that I would want to read this book. The concept was to not ask about a single play, player, game or season, but their methods, their influences, their experiences, and their time within basketball. I love reading books on coaches whether it is basketball or football. I couldn’t put this book down, because it was really funny to see how Andew Hemminger and Dave Bensch went on this path to talk with the best 29 basketball coaches in america. They spoke to all 29 basketball coaches in person and there were no interviews given on the phone, letters, emails, or faxes. In these times, where college basketball coaches have non-stop schedules that is amazing.They took pictures of themselves with each coach except for Jamie Dixon. They forgot the camera and the SID department sent them a picture. Each interview gives background on the basketball coach and then they go through a series of questions. They didn’t use the same questions on each coach. I thought that it was a tremendous idea and wish that I could have went on the trips. The book reads like you are on the trip.One of the interviews was John Chaney, formerly of Temple University and he said this of the interview. “It is more of a human kind of interview where the question touches you a little bit more, and it gives you a relaxing feeling when you are able to talk about some of your experiences”.I can’t say enough on how I thought that Andrew and Dave did a tremendous job on their book and I really appeciate them sending me a copy to read. I would give this book a 5 out of 5 stars. It is a tremendous book for college basketball fans who want some insight on 29 of the best basketball coaches in the country.Coach PetermanPS: Here are some excerpts and at the bottom of the article is where you can find the book.from the JOHN WOODEN STORY…We spotted a nearby elevator and figured it was where he wouldappear. With time to assess the situation before the doors openedand despite being so close, we still could not believe that CoachWooden was on his way down to greet us. With a ding, the metaldoors swung open and there he stood with the assistance of awooden cane, dressed in a button down shirt, slacks and aUCLA-blue vest. We shook his hand and introduced ourselves asthe doors closed behind us._______________________________________________________from the DEAN SMITH STORY…Trying to thwart off any mishaps in transit, we left the hotelmore than 90 minutes ahead of our scheduled time andheaded toward the Dean E. Smith Center to meet Dean E. Smith,which was less than six miles from our hotel._______________________________________________________from the THAD MATTA INTERVIEW…Who have been the biggest influences on you, in andout of hoops?Matta: Obviously my mom and dad. My dad was a coachand an athletic director, and all I ever wanted in life was to behim. I wanted to coach in a little town in Illinois because we hadsuch a great life._______________________________________________________from the BILLY DONOVAN STORY…Honestly, it took us 373 days to land an interview with him, whichwhen you think about it is a great sign for the state of collegebasketball. It would not be good if he were relatively non-busyand his time was easily accessible._______________________________________________________from the BILL SELF INTERVIEW…This job is described as your dream job, as it would be for alot of people. Can you sum up the job as the head coach at KU?Self: Definitely it is everything I thought it would be, maybeeven better than I thought it would be, and I thought it would begreat. If I could sum up anything, the right word would becaretaker, because it is such an honor and great responsibility tobe a caretaker of a program with such great names such as Naismith,Dean Smith and Chamberlain. It is an awesome responsibility to sitin that chair._______________________________________________________from the MIKE KRZYZEWSKI STORY…When the transition time came, we followed Jon and Coach K outinto the lobby area and waited as Coach K spoke momentarily withseveral other people. As he turned around, Jon introduced us, whichwas followed by the extension of a right hand and“Hi guys. Mike Krzyzewski.”_______________________________________________________from the RICK BARNES STORY…With a 100 guesses I bet you couldn’t come up with where we wereable to secure some time with Coach Barnes. I’m pretty confidentthat if you have bothered to take 100 cracks at it you would nothave put the Cracker Barrel restaurant off I-40’s Exit 125 in Hickory,North Carolina, on your list._______________________________________________________from the JIM CALHOUN INTERVIEW…What do you hope your players take away from theirexperience with you?Calhoun: I hope that they understand that to be good atanything you have to accept working hard. That we set a precedentand standard basketball-wise, academically, socially, etc. You aregoing to have to work and no one is just going to hand anythingover to you._______________________________________________________from the ROY WILLIAMS STORY…Sometimes in meeting coaches, we were thrown right into the fireand didn’t have that nervous period of anticipation time. In thiscase, things worked out beautifully. We waited for about 10 minutesin the office alone before a nearby door opened and Coach Williamsemerged._______________________________________________________from the GENE KEADY STORY…Informing us that we were the first strangers that he had everinvited into his home, he also let us know that his wife was in theback bedroom with a .38 revolver under her pillow just in case.We think he was kidding, but we weren’t completely certain at thatmoment. Remembering his intimidating demeanor on the sidelines,Coach Keady was the exact opposite, nothing short of extremelykind for the entire two-hour conversation._______________________________________________________from the TOM IZZO INTERVIEW…Izzo: I am not sure that I want to be patient becauseI have a small window with my players. I have at most four yearswith them, and a lot of times it determines the girl they marry andthe life they will live, by what you do in college and the image youportray, and that is all in that little window. I always hear abouthaving patience, but patience is something I don’t know if I wantto have, I would rather have understanding. Everybody is going tomove at a different speed. But the venue I am in, with how longyou get to graduate, how long you get to become an NBA player,how long you get to win a national championship, how long youget to set your footprint in the sand here, that doesn’t have anypatience, so how can I?
