Basketball Decision Training with Chris Oliver -- 2 Videos and eBook


Basketball Decision Training (BDT) is a cutting-edge player development program that combines skills and mind training. Players practice in a game-like environment which improves their skill retention and transfers to confidence and better game performance.

The videos cover critical skills including shooting, ball handling, footwork and more. Coach Oliver shows how to apply these in both 1-on-1 and 3-on-3 situations.

Zero-seconds training complements BDT. It teaches players how to quickly and decisively execute offensive play with no pause on the catch. As soon as a player's feet hit the ground, they are immediately into their shot, pass, or drive.

The unique, fun approach in these videos mixes various drills to challenge players' skills, adding layers to training so that they never practice in their comfort zone.

Coach Oliver also covers 15 unique shooting drills in the Dynamic Form Shooting section. These progressions replicate the training habits of NBA stars Jimmy Butler and Dirk Nowitzki.

The eBook contains detailed explanations and teaching points for implementing DBT, drills, and supplemental material from the videos. (No need to take notes while you watch!)


What's Included on the Videos

Chapter 1: Introduction

In this chapter, Coach Oliver introduces his unique player development system. It features randomized practices, a games-based approach, zero-seconds concept, and basketball decision training. He will apply it to shooting, ball pick-up, footwork, and competitive 1-1 and 3-on-3 situations. Since it's endlessly variable, players will never practice in their comfort zone.

Chapter 2: Mixed Drills

In this chapter, Coach Oliver introduces foundational concepts in games-based training:

  • "Fight for your feet" - getting your feet set on the ground to shoot the ball as quickly as possible
  • Using rhythm to help players understand the timing of a sequence or move
  • Adding layers to drills in order to keep challenging players as they train
  • Randomized workouts

Chapter 3: Fight for your Feet

In this chapter, Coach Oliver goes into more depth on "fight for your feet." He explains the 1-2-3 shooting positions and how this consistent technique improves your shooting percentages.

Chapter 4: Dribble Attack Series

In this chapter, you'll learn offensive skills in drills and combinations. Coach Oliver emphasizes that there is one threat, not a triple threat. If you're open, shoot the ball. If not, get the ball to the ground and figure it out. He also introduces a new, more effective, approach to ball rips.

Chapter 5: Basketball Decision Training

In this chapter, you'll learn about Basketball Decision Training (BDT) in detail. You'll practice skills and make decisions simultaneously - just like you would in a game. This helps with retention and will transfer to your game performance.

Chapter 6: Dynamic Form Shooting - 15 Drills

In this chapter, you'll learn 15 dynamic movement shooting drills. You learn how to add one-foot jumps and other dynamic movements to a traditional form shot. This will help you improve your balance, coordination, and core stability. Better balance and stability during shots leads to a higher shooting percentage. You'll also learn the characteristics of great shooters and how you can achieve them.

Chapter 7: Building Your Individual Workout

In this chapter, you'll learn how to use and sequence drills, get tips for building your workout, and learn how to create your own mixed drills.

Chapter 8: Competitive situations 1-on-1

In this chapter, Coach Oliver combines 0-second skills and drills in a 1-on-1 environment. It includes 5 different drills with dozens of variations. You also learn decision cues and teaching commands to add complexity to the workout.

Chapter 9: Competitive Situations 3-on-3

Competitive 3-on-3 drills allow players to compete in a live setting and further enhance the fundamental skills and decision training concepts.

Coach Oliver gives you a variety of constraints to emphasize skills in 3-on-3 drills and competitive situations.

Chapter 10: Coaching Philosophy

Coach Oliver goes into more detail about his coaching philosophy, why it works, and why coaches and players love it.

Chapter 11: FAQs

Chapter 12: Concluding Thoughts


What NBA & College Coaches Are Saying

I have already incorporated so many of the BDT teachings into my skill development work. Talk about 'athlete satisfaction', each one of the players I implemented the BDT concepts with loved the drills. They are engaged and focused throughout the work. They also feel a sense of accomplishment through a very limited number of shots so the work can be very efficient.

- Charles Klask, Detroit Pistons, Assistant Coach

I have respected Chris Oliver via his online sharing of important basketball concepts. But I was blown away by the rationale and evidence supporting his Basketball Decision Training. I am looking forward to diving into a much more detailed understanding of Chris' approach. As coaches, we talk about decision making, but do very little to train it.

- Dave Paulsen, George Mason, Head Coach

Chris Oliver has an impressive and insightful way to see the game and the only thing better than his ability to see it is his ability to teach it to others. He's increasing his reach to others all the time and we are all better for it. He's taking a player's proactive approach to another level.

- Tom Crean, Indiana University, Former Head Coach

Really only picked up on a few things that are not already used in current drills one way or another. The decision training was the only new concept. Also the 3 on 3 attack with decision training was good, The decision trainig part I had seen in zero second training on you tube for free. This video went a little farther into it but not much. For the information received from the video should have been a 19.99 or 29.99 cost video due to lake of new or not already available in zero second decisoin training on the net.

Thanks

Not up to the same quality of other videos I've ordered from Breakthrough. The Decision Training title was deceptive. Not a great deal of situations covered and the decisions covered were quite obvious. Cannot recommend this video.

I teach in an international school in South America and all of my girls are very late to basketball. This has given me some solid drills and approaches to both individual and team skills. Very much appreciated (and I am only partially through the materials)
