Tip of the Month!
This month's tip is about DEFENSE!!! This is a simple tip but very few players use it in a game at the lower levels. When you are defending a man who has the basketball, don't look at the ball when you are trying to determine which way he is going to go. Look at your man's belly button. He can show you a lot of fakes and fancy moves with the basketball, but when he gets ready to move somewhere, his waist has to turn in that direction for his legs to go in that same direction. So the next time you are covering someone with some smooth moves with the basketball, look at his belly button not the ball. And remember, all that fancy dribbling counts for how many points? Oh, that's right NONE!!!!!
