"Howard Garfinkel and Will Klein are as well organized in their presentation of drills as they are in their camp. This book is a great contribution to your basketball library." -- Bob Knight "Owning one of the most varied sports libraries in the country, I consider myself an expert on sports books. Nowhere on my shelves is there anything approaching the value of these drills for youngsters and young coaches. It's the best drill book in America." -- George Raveling "With the advent of the three-point shot, there's now a high priority on the skill parts of the game. This book will help the dedicated user become a fundamentally sound player." -- Mike Fratello "A must for all young players and coaches who want to learn the game the way it should be taught." -- Rick Pitino "Five-Star has done a great job helping kids. I admire the way they've emphasized teaching the concepts and maintained the personal touch in dealing with youngsters. This book carries on that great tradition." -- Mike Krzyzewski

Good for teenagers but not for youth.
HArd to read.

• My Son, The Coach, Found It A Winner
15 December, 2009
My son is a coach to a group of high school students who really needed discipline not just yelling and he told me that the drills found in the box kept them focused and improved their game. They were also drills that he did during his high school playing years but had forgotten.
