Joe Crispin joins the JAMODI Podcast for Episode 324 for a deep conversation on coaching philosophy, player development, playing fast, shooting with confidence, and creating an environment where players learn how to play instead of simply learning plays.

Coach Crispin explains why his “system” starts with the players in the locker room. Rather than forcing every team into the same style, he believes coaches should understand who they have and teach that group how to play together at its highest level. joe-matt

Joe and Matt discuss using constraints to develop decision-makers, creating an aggressive mentality on both ends of the floor, the value of the shot clock, analytics and shot selection, developing confident shooters, and why coaches have to live out the freedom they tell their players they have.

Joe also shares a bigger perspective on coaching. Basketball should connect players to each other and to the community they represent. He reflects on how his own perspective has evolved from being consumed with winning to understanding the relationships, joy, and growth that can come through the game. joe-matt

In this episode:

• Building an authentic coaching philosophy

• Teaching players how to play together

• Playing fast without playing recklessly

• Developing aggressive players

• Shooting with conviction

• Giving players freedom—and actually meaning it

• Using constraints in practice

• Why Joe believes in the shot clock

• Shot selection and analytics

• Development vs. performance

• Building around the players you have

• Coaching through losses

• Connecting basketball to something bigger than winning

Joe's message to coaches is simple but challenging: know what you believe, teach it clearly, and have the conviction to live with it.

How do you actually develop better shooters—not just players who shoot well in drills?

NBA shooting coach Dave Love returns to the JAMODI Podcast for his second appearance to dive deep into shooting development, skill acquisition, and how coaches can build practices that transfer to games.

Dave breaks shooters into four different levels—weak, below average, above average, and elite—and explains why each should be trained differently. He introduces the concept of periodization for shooting, discusses movement coordination and skill adaptability, and explains why making 9 out of 10 shots in a drill may actually mean the drill isn't challenging enough.

We also break down one of my own high school shooting workouts, with Dave offering practical ways to improve it.

In this episode:

🏀 The four levels of shooters 🎯 Why every shooter shouldn't train the same way 🧠 Periodization for shooting development 🔵 Movement coordination vs. skill adaptability 🟢 Building game-representative shooting workouts 📈 The challenge-point principle ⚖️ Why balance matters in shooting development ❌ Why making more shots in practice isn't always better 🏀 Moving beyond stationary spot shooting 🔥 Creating practice that actually transfers to games 🎯 How high school coaches can individualize shooting development 💡 Why every drill needs a specific purpose 🏆 Developing shooters patiently over time

Dave also shares a powerful idea that runs throughout the conversation: developing a shooter requires persistent patience. Coaches aren't simply teaching players to shoot better—they're developing skills and habits that take time to change.
