Hey guys,
I must apologize for the lack of posts lately. I’ve been out training many ballers as well as updating the site. STOP! Before you check out the video below, do two things first. Click on the above “Testimonials” tab and check out all the new video and written testimonials from players that are working their butts off with BT Basketball this summer. Find out how some of the best players around are improving their game in their own words. After that, check out the “Interviews” tab as the BT Basketball Interview Series is up and running. You will see both Matt and Zach with individual interviews. Learn more about the best players in our area, from their own mouths. Now, on to this video…

I worked out Matt and Zach together recently and I will be posting a series of drills all week that we did during this workout. The first one, which you are about to watch, is basic pull up jumpers. Catch, rip through, one hard dribble, and quick pull up. Pay attention to how quickly they get the shots off as well as their footwork. If you do this drill with a partner, make it a competition as we did, first one to make 10 shots wins. Alternate right and left sides. This is a fantastic drill if you do it the RIGHT way. Don’t do it lazy, don’t waste your time. Go through it hard and you will be able to get your shot off against anyone…

The second segment of the drill, we switch it up just a little bit. In this drill, we add a quick crossover. So you will see them catch, take one dribble, cross it over quickly and explosively, take one more power dribble while creating space, and again quickly getting the shot off from there. Another vital move to have as a guard in this game. This could be a quick crossover against your defender or it could be against someone who has come to hedge out against you. Either way, work on it, and it will work for you.

Keep in mind, be sure to shoot foul shots when you are tired at the end of drills! You never shoot FT’s fully rested during the game, so don’t practice it that way! Practice so you are ready to play in the game peoples.

Watch these videos closely, these are two of the top players in NJ. Watch their form, the repitition, the intensity.
