2016 Nike Championship Basketball Clinic Cleveland, Ohio Notes

Written by Coach Peterman

I have coached at the NCAA Division 2 (Southwestern Oklahoma State University), NAIA (USAO), and JUCO Levels (Blinn College and Carl Albert State College) as well as high school. I just felt that fellow coaches especially young coaches need to constantly work on their “game”. Just like the basketball players that we coach. We as coaches need to improve ourselves. That is my story and why I do this blog.

Archie Miller talks about how to develop your players in the off-season while they work on their conditioning. Coach Miller will get you some drills and strategies that they use with the University of Dayton Flyers in their shooting program. He talks about ball handling, warm-ups, shooting drills and several competitive drills that simulate game like situations. Coach Miller’s shooting series isn’t your basic shooting drill. They use the clock to gauge effort and simulating game speed. It’s a tough workout.

Jay Wright is one of the nation’s top basketball coaches. He is considered one of the best teachers in the game. He will share his multiple defensive approach with you. It’s the same scheme that aided in the Villanova Wildcat’s run to the 2016 NCAA Championship. You will learn how he uses 1-2-2 three-quarter court pressure to trap opponents, slow down their offense and create turnovers. He talks about four strategies that they use to apply their three-quarter court pressure to confuse your opponents. You will learn how to efficiently convert back into 1-3-1 and 2-3 zone defenses out of a 1-2-2 press. Also man principles to guard against ball screens while in a zone defense.

Jim Boeheim will talk about his 2-3 Match-up Zone Defense which outlines the responsibilities, rotations, and reads for each player. You will learn the proper defensive slides against both odd and even front zone offenses. He will discuss key concepts such as scouting, trapping, communication, bump-down situations, and controlling penetration. You will also see how they defend baseline running, protect the 3-point line, release cutters, protect the high post area, and transition defense back in to the 2-3 match-up zone.
