You've learned in Basketball: The 4 Essential Mental Game Tools what Mental Game tools you need to compete at the highest level of basketball. Now it's time to address your physical game, specially the game-specific skills you'll need to play basketball at your best.Players who lack complete skill sets all eventually run into a wall where their lack of skill costs them by way of a missed or lost opportunity, playing time, maybe even a roster spot or a chance to earn one. Yes, athletic ability is essential for playing basketball. And the Mental Game is paramount for excelling in anything in life, sports and otherwise. But for anything in which you involve yourself and plan to excel, you need SKILLS. With this belief in mind, I created this workbook, Basketball: The 9 Essential Game Skills. By the end of The 9 Essential Game Skills Workbook, you will: - Understand the details of every skill in the game of basketball and why they matter for you- Know which areas of your game need further development - Have a detailed strategy for continuous basketball skill improvement - Never again be blind to what your game is missing Let's complete your game and make you the all-around player you deserve to be recognized as.

The questions we ask ourselves determine our lives. Our thoughts are nothing more than a continuous question-and-answer session we have with ourselves. Our lives - material, emotional, spiritual, and financial - are a direct reflection of our thoughts. Eighty-five percent of these thoughts are both habitual and unconscious. Meaning, we are asking and answering the exact same questions every day, usually in the same way over and over again. What all this means: If there is any area of your life you're not 100% happy with, the root of the needed change is in the questions you're asking of yourself. And since these questions are habitual and unconscious, the first order of business is to become aware of the questions. Only then can we change them. That is exactly what we're doing with this book, Ask Yourself A Better Question. The improved quality of your questions will lead to an improved quality of life. No matter how much skill and how many resources you add to your arsenal, bad questions will always drag you backwards into failure. Not taking full control of your questions will lead you into the randomness of the world - good days and outcomes followed by just as many bad days and outcomes. If this has happened to you before, there isn't anything wrong with you: You just didn't know what you didn't know. No one ever told you about this. There aren't any classes in school teaching you the habit of asking strong, empowering questions. Some people live 80 years and never consider what they've been asking themselves all day every day, thus they think success in life is based on randomness, the luck of the draw. Success and happiness are not random. You become exactly what you ask yourself. Are you ready to ask yourself better questions and improve your life, one answer at a time? You better be, because the journey begins on the next page. Let's get started.

30 seconds left in a BIG game. Your team is up by one point. The ball is passed to you. You need to dribble the ball up court vs a defender draped all over you, get it across half court, and dribble out the clock - all while not turning the ball over and avoiding any violations (offensive foul, back court, 5-second, etc). Given your current ball handling skills, can you see yourself doing this? If you hesitated even a little bit on the answer, this Hoop Handbook is for YOU. -- I've been asked what I would do if I were working with someone who was being trained in basketball for the first time. Whether it's the 50-year-old lawyer who just wants to compete in his weekly half court games, or 6-year-old kids whose father wants them to try out every sport - I've trained both, and everything in between - the answer is always the same. 1. Layups 2. Ball Handling Aside from making a layup, which is the most basic way to score points in basketball (which is the very object of the game), handling the ball is the most important skill. In basketball, the only way to advance the ball from Point A to Point B is by either passing the ball or dribbling it. Passing is covered in another of our Programs. The program you hold in your hands covers the dribbling part, in all aspects.

Your size is not an excuse in this game. Once you lace up a pair of sneakers and step between those four lines, you are a player - a player who can play, or a player who cannot play. Does Size Matter in Basketball? Yes. But Heart matters more. And skill can be bought with work. You must be able to finish and create space against bigger opponents who aim to block your path. You must eliminate any flaws that would make you a liability. And make your strengths so strong that any unchangeable flaws don't matter. You must be an expert ball handler, getting to any spot on the floor with your dribble and creating separation from any defender. You must be an accurate outside shooter who cannot be left open. You must develop myriad methods for finishing around the basket, unafraid of contact and towering rim protectors. The Undersized Player HoopHandbook will help you develop all of the above, ensure that you WILL stand out, and won't get lost in the basketball shuffle. You're an undersized player by nature. Make the choice to not be under-hearted or under-skilled.

Using Which Position Should I Play?, you will know how to: - Best utilize your skills to help a team- Play your ideal position - Describe your game to an interested coach or scout - Contribute consistently to a team --In basketball, unlike hockey, soccer and baseball, any player can do anything. Score in the post. Dribble. Shoot the ball. Guard whomever has the ball on the opposition. Unlike a soccer midfielder, who cannot use his hands like the goalie, or a baseball shortstop, who can't throw pitches to the batter, a basketball player, as long as he is on the court, can perform any function the game requires. Anyone can move to any spot on the floor, and the same rules apply to every player regardless of size or designated position (if any). To this idea, basketball is and has always been "positionless". But it is still useful to have a general idea of what your game is. The better you know your own game, the more easily you fit into a role on a team (or, the better you can tell if you can even help a certain team). The better you know your own game, the better you can sell yourself to a coach or General Manager who's looking to fill his roster. The better you know your own game, the more easily you can look at a game situation, see what is needed, and contribute. Many teams at the professional and college level play positionless basketball. Every player knows his game and knows his role, and due to their versatility, positions and duties need not be designated for the team to play winning basketball. This is only possible when you have a group of high-caliber, high-IQ, versatile players. But not every team is this gifted. Even at the professional level, some coaches still want more structure: they will designate positions for players, and sometimes define (or confine) players' roles based on those positions. This helps the coach maintain order and helps a coach hold players accountable for certain jobs on the court. It's not right nor wrong: on a basketball team, a coach is the boss, and the boss makes the rules. And maybe you want a more solid idea of who you're becoming as a player, for your own reference. You want to know which skills to develop next and you want that skill to seamlessly blend with your other skills. Plus, you may be a member of one of these more structured teams, now or in the future. You need to know who you are, what you're doing, how that fits into the framework of any team you join, and what skills you'll need to add to your game. I understand: The more skills, the better. But you're on a time crunch; you don't have forever to maximize your basketball opportunity. And maybe your next team's coach will require that you declare a position in order to get on the roster. For the reasons stated above, I've created this guidebook, Which Position Should I Play?

The Crossover-made basket combination. Aside from dunking - and maybe not even that - there isn't a better feeling in the game of basketball. Shake a defender off with a slick cross move, then finish the move off by scoring. The sidelines -- players and fans alike - buzz with, "who is that guy/girl with that nasty crossover?" Or they simply smile and nod, having seen you do that before. Either way, you've done the ultimate good in basketball: Created space from your defender, shot the ball, and the ball went in the basket. This is "Creating Your Own Shot" in its essence. There are other ways to create your own shot, yes, but they can only strive to *match* the feeling of the Crossover Scoring Move. Nothing surpasses it, not even dunking. Any coach, however, will tell you that a move is worthless if it doesn't result in a made basket or at least a foul, not just the shot itself. Moves alone are not worth points. So, a nice crossover move isn't enough; you have to finish the job. This Crossover Scoring Moves Handbook teaches you how to get the job, do the work, and finish the job with points on the scoreboard.

In starting his "Weekly Motivation" series on YouTube in 2010, many viewers commented that Dre sounded "like a Philosopher." They were right. A collection of Dre's favorite blog posts, ideas and observations over a 3-year span, Dre "DreAllDay" Baldwin shares an 800-page opus that paints a full picture of his way of thinking and being that is just the first volume of his "Philosophy" series. Never one to hold back on his views and opinions, Dre Baldwin shares stories from his everyday life, interactions with others (both positive and not-so-much), stories of observing others, and thoughts that come from marinating in these situations. In Dre Philosophy Vol. 0, Dre covers every area of life that matters to him - sports, business, relationships, conflict, people skills, motivation, confidence, goal-setting, and more.

Is playing in the post a lost art? Not for the complete basketball player. Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade, Klay Thompson, Chris Paul, and Russell Westbrook are but a few examples of All-Star perimeter players who will go into the point for points. If you are or plan to be a complete player, the post is an area of opportunity, not something to be avoided. HoopHandbook ensures that there is no offensive situation in which you cannot be a factor. This program handles the Post part of your game. Here you will learn Footwork, Scoring Moves, Back-To-Basket, Facing Up, and Finishing: Everything you need to be a threat and a producer as a post-up player, or a complete player who has post-up skills. All of this is taught by Dre Baldwin, the 9-year professional basketball player who created the genre of online workout videos. You cannot learn from a better teacher than DreAllDay.

Worry: Give way to anxiety or unease; allow one's mind to dwell on difficulty or troublesWorrying is for the weak. Worry is the habit of fearful people who seek something to stress about. Worry is misused energy that creates exactly what it focuses on. Focus on fear, stress, anxiety and unwanted outcomes, you get it. Worry is a self-fulfilling prophecy. The worrier thinks something bad might happen. He focuses on the possibility thus creating stress. The stress manifests itself physically. The worrier has trouble breathing, can't eat, can barely fall asleep (or has a hard time waking up), and makes poor eating choices. All of this momentum - negative energy works the same way positive energy works - begets a result. The exact thing the worrier stressed about, happens. You would think these results would convince a worrisome person to never do this again, right? Wrong. This bad outcome only confirms to the worrier that his worries are based in reality. I worried about it, and it happened! Now I better worry about the next bad thing that might happen! Worrying is a hereditary trait that parents pass down to their kids - unless the kids realize what's happening and break the cycle. Worrying is an infectious energy, just like joy, excitement, and anticipation, that spreads to everyone around the carrier. Worrying literally kills people. The deceased usually dies from the exact thing he or she was worrying about. More accurately, then, the deceased commits suicide from worry. ***This book exists to rid you of this debilitating, weak, helpless, life-robbing habit - FOREVER. I know what it feels like to worry. There have been times I've worried about how I would pay rent, or continue my career, or finish an impossibly large project on schedule. This energy did nothing to help me. What I did do in those cases, was catch myself thinking about the wrong things. I changed my thinking and literally controlled outcomes by steering them with my thinking, combined with my action. [Note: Action is the kryptonite of worry.]This book will take you through 25 reasons to quit worrying. Not to pause worrying, or go on a worrying vacation. This is spit-in-the-boss'-face, trash your office, no-need-for-a-work-reference, burn-the-boats quitting. You will never have a need to worry again. And upon seeing the results of your alternatives, you'll never even consider worrying again.

"1. Stop Playing Scared. 2. Buy A Game. "What you read above is the best life advice I've ever been given. It was told to me by a fellow classmate in the 8th grade. And I've been using it ever since. I started playing basketball at age 14, after failed tries at football (equipment too costly) and baseball (couldn't hit a fastball or field a ground ball). I was a complete bum. Everyone in Mt. Airy was better than me - male AND female. I didn't make my high school varsity team until my senior year. I scored 2 points per game. How, then, did I get recruited to play at Penn State Altoona 2 summers later? How did I develop the game to sign my first professional basketball contract only 9 years after I started playing? This book is the story of how. I have had the idea of writing a book for a while now, and the beauty of the Internet is that anyone can put their work out there -- websites, workout videos, books -- freely without having to navigate through the traditional gatekeepers of self-expression. The Internet also allows one to experiment and do trial runs of their work, like this book: I made it free to all because the most important part of putting this out is your response; I know I can get a lot better at this writing thing and your critiques will be my first step in doing so.What you are about to read is my story as a basketball player -- only as it pertains to basketball -- from the time I began playing the game up to and through my college years. It is to be hoped that you find it interesting, insightful, descriptive, and entertaining. If so you should tell me. If you don't, I want to know about that too, and why. Speak your mind.Enjoy. #WOYG

Despite what you see in highlight reels and viral video clips, the majority of the points scored in a basketball game come from simple, fundamental moves that don't draw excitement from the casual observer. Most of your points will come after taking two or fewer dribbles; often times no dribbles at all. When you do put the ball on the floor, it will be with a purpose: Get a better angle for your shot or pass. All the fancy, "playground" stuff you see usually never makes it to the real games. This HoopHandbook program will ensure your game is primed and ready for dominating offensively in the most efficient way possible, with sharp, crisp fundamentals. We dive into three specific areas: Triple Threat, Jumpstop, and Two-Dribble moves, that you should expect to see often in your live games. You will have precise footwork, understanding of angles and a bevy of new scoring tools at your disposal. You ready for that? Let's get to it.

Do you play confidently and balls-out in meaningless pickup games, but then play like a bum in the real games and tryouts?You've been working on your game. You know what you're capable of: you've done it over and over again in practice, scrimmages and games against your friends. Then game time comes. And... nothing. Your performance is not the same person who put all that time in. You're not doing any of your moves. You don't assert yourself. You're invisible on the court. Knowing the skills you have, this is really frustrating . Is it mental? Is it physical? Is it something else? It's a little bit of all of those and more. This workbook, Playing As Well As You Practice, will move you past it. Upon completion of this workbook, you will: - Play with full confidence in the biggest moments- Never have another deer-in-the-headlights moments on the basketball court- Erase all performance anxiety problems and conquer the cues that cause it- Step on the court with an aggressive mindset that keeps you on the offensive, never nervous or hesitant- Know the exact mental cues you'll use to lock yourself into a mindset that's congruent with your highest level of performance
