Is it playable?
Is it game relevant?
Is what we are asking this player to do something they will actually have a chance to do more than once in a basketball game?
If not, we're probably wasting their time and our own time.
Unfortunately, most programs and most team coaches get the 80/20 rule backward - they spend a lot of their time working on incredibly complex, irrelevant skills for the player that the player will never have the chance to do in a game.
All the success that we've had with results, being able to guarantee results in game performance for our players, has come from making EVERYTHING game relevant, making everything playable.
We don't do anything that doesn't actually happen in the game and happens frequently enough to be worthwhile getting good at!
