Assistant Coaches

Cool. I forgot that Bilas had been an assistant to K for two(?) years. But, this camp is for players and coaches, so who's coaching the coaches?

Anyway... someone or some people in other threads characterized certain decisions or non-decisions from our staff as "coaching malpractice." There are elements to the game that, once recognized, absolutely should be emulated, and not doing so sorta constitutes 'malpractice' to me. One such thing:

Watch Tyrese Haliburton. Any time he receives a pass after a made basket, his body is either parallel to the sidelines, or he's already facing his team's basket upcourt and on the move. So, that he has the earliest possible vision of where everyone is and where they're moving. I need to find a video of this—i remember someone making specific mention of it a year or so ago. This kind of thing ought to be the standard. There are lots of similar examples of how an individual player, through maybe an idiosyncratic habit or method, makes his team better.

Ooh, here's a whole webpage about Haliburton, with vids:

Like you said that should be the standard but someone is always the best at something, he is the best at visualizing the fast break or next possession.

A good rule for players is they should always receive an outlet with their heels facing the sidelines. They can see in front and back and the outlet pass won’t get picked off. If the defense tries to cut and steal the pass, you either cut towards the ball or the passer throws over the top. Devo was terrible catching the ball with his back to where he was going. He would turn right into the defensive player or likely get called for a travel. He wasn’t the only one, but he did it often.
 
do we pay for him to attend ? can't believe it's free. program is pitched for

Any word on new assistant coach hires?

Did we have 1 or 2 slots open on staff according to Wildhack's presser (I can't remember.)

Jay Bilas holding a coaching clinic with 2 years of assistant coaching experience is an all time duke move.
I got a copy of the day one agenda:

8am-10am- Why announcers know better than coaches

10am-10:15 Break

10:15am-12pm Why players are better off at Duke

12pm-1pm Cocktails, Lots of Cocktails

1pm-3pm Guest Speakers who actually coached for a while

3pm-3:15pm Break/Cocktails

3:15pm-4:15pm Coach K documentary (ESPN productions; Commercials partially edited)

4:15pm-5pm Former Duke Coaches Round Table

5pm-??? Dinner and more Cocktails

For some reason there isn't a day 2 agenda.

you left off the sessions about teaching kids to take a charge, and why slapping the floor on defense is just a cool thing to do
