Just have them root the big out from his comfort zone and they'll be fine. Is he an active big or a slug?

Slug who is just physically hard to move. They just lob it in and he turns and lays it up. We've got the 6'1 kid fronting him and a big in the back and we worked all week on pressuring the shite out of the entry pass.

We'll press the weak guards like crazy and hopefully they won't even get to set up in the half-court.

Had no idea that was possible. Thought only teachers/coaches could actually coach a school team unless it's a private school or something.



Out here teachers always get first shot but if no teacher wants the job they can find someone that isn't a teacher.

All you need is a good point guard and rebounding to win middle school basketball games.

I was the best player on my 8th grade basketball team, fun times.

I'm hoping they give us a sweet coach's polo, but if not, what I wear to work. Slacks and a button-down...

I always liked the Jim Phelan look.

It bothered me when the NCAA decided to honor him by having the head coaches wear bow ties. Almost all were clip-ons.
