Basketball’s Mandatory Moves
I first saw Ed Schilling play when I competed against him in a high school varsity basketball game. Even though he did not score much, he controlled the game as the point guard for the Lebanon (Indiana) Tigers. He got all of his teammates the ball where they were most effective with it, hit the big shots, and made his free throws down the stretch as we were fouling in an attempt to catch up.
That was 25 years ago and since then he had a great career as a player at Miami (Ohio), became a head high school coach at age 23, became an assistant at: UMass, the New Jersey Nets, Memphis, and the head coach at Wright State. Now, he focuses on developing individual skills for players of all levels at his Champions Academy Training Facility in Indianapolis. He works with all ages and ability levels, including recent NBA first round draft choices Greg Oden, Mike Conley, George Hill, Courtney Lee, and Eric Gordon.
So, with all of that experience and ability to teach players how to play basketball, he has put together what I feel is one of the best DVDs that I have in my coaching library–Mandatory Moves. In the DVD, Coach Schilling goes shows how he teaches individual moves from various spots on the floor. The DVD is more than just demonstration. He is working with three young high school players and you can see not only what he teaches, but also how he teaches it, and how the players benefit and improve immediately from the teaching points he emphasizes.
This DVD is something that players and coaches from every level will be able to apply immediately to their games to improve themselves, or to develop the individual skills their players need to make plays that will improve whatever offense you run.
