This may be the most-asked question for both of us. And while there are infinite ways to structure a basketball workout, there is a pretty general structure that we will follow in our sessions. We discuss our different types of sessions, what the first step to any program is, why a ballhandling warmup can double as a dynamic warmup, and much more.

We got University of Maryland PG Anthony Cowan Jr. on the podcast to talk about his journey to becoming one of the top point guards in the nation despite his lack of size.

We're in the midst of something that our generation--or any generation, for that matter--has never seen before. It's implications will stretch far and wide, so much so that the implications in the basketball world will feel minor compared to the lives lost and altered. Either way, the repercussions in the basketball community will be felt everywhere. It's up to YOU to navigate it and make the most of it.

Everyone knows how it feels to have the "hot hand," right? It's something that every hooper has felt. What if I told you that it doesn't exist? That it's a complete myth... That's exactly how we felt when we came across this study by Amos Tversky (and backed by many very smart people) that the hot hand is just a facade based on probability. We try to clear the air on this episode!

Sand workouts are a great tool. No one can argue that. However, as with any training modality, we can't blindly use them without knowing the purpose. Coleman explains why sand workouts may not be fitting for you (or why they may be perfect) and all the cool science you'd ever need to know behind it.

This is a long-standing conversations (and sometimes argument) among coaches, so we had to give our takes on it. We believe that before you can even begin to elevate your game, it's vital to understand where your opportunities are as a hooper. And knowing the skill that coaches value the most is HUGE. Also learn why specialists make so much money, why Kyle Korver doesn't have to do sh*t but shoot, and more!

As we're in the midst of a global pandemic, everything is filled with uncertainty, including the basketball world. We all know how the COVID-19 outbreak has affected this year's NBA season, but we can assure you that the overall impact will transgress just that. Basketball culture will be changed forever. We don't say this to scare you at all! In fact, the majority of these changes will likely be positive. They will be potential silver linings to what we're enduring right now. But, we want you to be aware of and prepared for the future, so that you can use these unforeseen circumstances to your advantage.
