Normally I would say - Do whatever works for you..... but if it was me planning a practice I would do them all every day... AFTER some form shooting. FIVE 3s!!! Great job..... I loved my players that couild knock down the 3 ball...... since we didn't have any real post players.

Keep after it, it sounds like you are on the way back!

No, I didn't see that movie but from the little I have read its a great story about what it takes to be successful.

This is an excerpt from an article written by Don Kelbick on how he likes to organize workouts.

"I usually categorize the workouts when we have a regular workout. All workouts contain shot repetitions, footwork, conditioning and ball handling. How we work on those is dependent on the type of workout. I try to vary them so the players don’t get bored or stale. The categories are repetition, where we just concentrate on a high volume of shots; fast break, where we run up the floor and simulate skills coming off break options; screens, where we concentrate on reading and coming off all types of screens (except ball screens) and position, where we work on things specific to the players position, such as getting open on the wing, ball screens, post ups, pop outs, etc. This is also when we take pieces of his offense and his role during the season and try to incorporate them into drills."

Ok sweet thing coach thats very handy .

Coach Sar we done testing at my high school today with a profressinal company . Here where my results . Tell me what you think compared to the div1 / nba players

Height: 191cm
Weight: 83kg
Agility test: 5.99sec ( You start at the baseline, sprint about 5 meters turn the corner sprint to the top of the key , weave through the defensive player then slide 5 meters down , drop step and sprint to the baseline . I got the quickest time .
Suicide:26.9 sec . Dude said that that was a pretty quick time all of the top players get around that and i definently could have improved it because i slipped near the end .
Vertical . 28inch . fairly weak
20 meter sprint : 3.15 sec (not very good , guy reckons i can get it down to 2.50 just by improving technique
And we done a long distance test( my bread and better) i dominated that . The test finished at level 23 , i got 21

What do you think . Consider that i rarely train for this things and can imrpove by heaps .

This is what I hear from a lot of the talk show hosts (some are x football players) regarding the COMBINE for football players...... "While they can do a lot of these things well.... CAN THEY PLAY FOOTBALL?" So I take a lot of these things with a grain of salt.
Considering you are just coming back from some injuries I would say that you did pretty well. As for the "suicides" which we call LINES now.... God forbid anybody would drop dead doing this.... explain that one to the judge. Coach Sar, what were you doing when that boy dropped dead.... ummm - suicides your honor. GUILTY!! Have to be PC today ya know. :-)
Anyway, our kids did this too... and IF they didn't come in under 28 seconds they did it again. Guard / forward types.... most post players we timed with an hour glass. Basektball is all about starting and stopping, its not a marathon... as for me as a coach... I could care less what your 1 mile time might be... as long as you could start and stop and start again quickly... and can you PLAY. You could have an Olympic sprinter there and if he cant play, what good is that speed. Do things that are specific to your sport... work on your jumping abiltiies... but if you are sound fundamentally and can shoot the ball.. they will find a place for you.... oh yea, and be a SHUT DOWN DEFENDER and a great TEAM DEFENSIVE PLAYER. Of course, this is just my opinion of this.....

It seems like you do a lot of things that relate to the game very well.. keep up the good work... work on your handles.... see the floor well.... shooting.... alot of shooting - Good luck, I hope you get the chance to realize your dream.

To add to Coach Sars' words, Kevin Durant tested as the 2nd WORST at the NBA pre-draft tests. It included vertical jump, bench, agility tests, and some other things.

It certainly helps to have good physical skills, but they are often hyped up too much.

I can't imagine how Larry Bird would have done at those tests.

IF you can play... the rest you can improve upon.... all it takes is some determination and hard work.... it sounds like you have that already. I'm holding you to your word..... I (maybe all the coaches here) better be getting some front row seats to your games!!! Otherwise you will be in deep sand! :-)

I had a bad experience on the floor my second year at the high school I worked at..... a very bad memory for me... I will never forget that moment.
So, I was always aware of what we were doing.... ok. almost always.
