A Coach's Diary

The video above is a compilation of post feeds from the Villanova Wildcats.  Jay Wright is known for his player development, and post play and post feeds are a skill that is sometimes overlooked but is important to master. - All players can make sharp accurate passes with both hands - Post players do a great job of shielding their man, meet the pass, and catch with both hands - The passers always relocate on the pass to make the double team hard - The post players take their time on the catch and read the defense before attacking They don't always score, but the action is always sound and solid which is part of what makes Villanova so tough every year. The video was taken from Zak Boisfert's YouTube channel .  He is a great resource for anything you need on the court.

via For The Win Colin Stanton has edited NBA videos before — his six-minute tribute to the San Antonio Spurs  is a must-watch for fans of the NBA. Stanton’s newest video follows a similar formula. It has stirring classical music and edited footage of basketball stars playing the game beautifully. This time his focus on the 1986 Boston Celtics, one of the greatest NBA teams ever assembled. Larry Bird was in his prime, as were Robert Parrish and Kevin McHale, and the Celtics that year also added Bill Walton, one of the better passing big men who have ever played the game. The highlights are magical, and you get a glimpse of just how good a passing team those Celtics were. The Larry Bird segment especially. Good lord.
