Most junior basketball resources hand coaches more plays and more drills. This book starts somewhere else: with the decisions players make every possession, and with the environment a coach designs so those decisions can be learned.

It is written for weekend coaches who want players to think, not just react, and who believe development and competition belong together. Read it online, or download it to keep.
