Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars Some great articles that skim the Surface   August 28, 2008
This book has great articles from some of the best coaches ever such as Wooden, Dean Smith, Henry Iba, and Morgan Wooten, but never gets too in depth. Great book for a coach looking for ideas here and there, but not great if look for real specifics.


5 out of 5 stars Another masterpiece by Jerry Krause.   November 30, 2006
I love teaching and coaching basketball. I also love reading and learning more about the game. Most of my reviews are 5 star and thats because I do my homework when purchaseing a new book. This book would be a 5 star plus if possible.A good book for reading but always a great source of reference. Contains every aspect of basketball.

Jerry Krause has put together a great coaching book with articles contributed by the greatest coaches in the game, covering all aspects of the game. A "must have" for any coach or player seeking a higher level of knowledge of the game.


5 out of 5 stars This is the best coaches book   February 23, 2000
 14 out of 14 found this review helpful

This book covers it all. From developing your coaching philosophy to Junk Defenses. I have used it to teach 15 year olds a full court press to 9 year olds the basics of footwork. I have over 15 books on basketball, yet this one never seems to make it back onto the shelf.

This and the 5-star basketball drill book are the only two books you will ever need as a coach!


5 out of 5 stars the best book on basketball ever written   August 4, 1999
 9 out of 9 found this review helpful

I have read many books on basketball, but this is simply the best. It takes the coaches and their specialties so you know you are getting the best advice ever. An example is John Wooden and the high-low offense and Jerry Tarkanian talking about pressing defenses. You will definately get your money's worth in information.
