    Ep 1148 Mistakes Made at Practice
    Jul 3 2025
    https://teachhoops.com/ https://teachhoops.com/ Show thinking A common pitfall in basketball practice is the neglect of fundamental skills in favor of more flashy, complex maneuvers. Players often dedicate excessive time to low-percentage shots and intricate dribbling moves that are seldom used in actual games, while failing to master the basics of shooting form, defensive stances, and effective passing. This leads to the development of bad habits, such as improper footwork, poor shot selection, and a weak off-hand. Furthermore, many players practice at a pace that doesn't replicate game speed, leading to a disconnect between their training and in-game performance. The lack of focus on details, like proper spacing, cutting with purpose, and consistent communication, further compounds these issues, resulting in inefficient and often counterproductive practice sessions. Equally detrimental are the mental and attitudinal mistakes that plague many players during practice. A frequent error is the absence of a clear goal or plan for each session, leading to aimless shooting around rather than purposeful skill development. This is often coupled with a poor work ethic, where players go through the motions without intensity or a desire to push past their comfort zones. An unwillingness to be coached, demonstrating poor body language, and a tendency to blame others for mistakes create a negative training environment and stifle personal growth. Ultimately, the most significant mistake is a failure to understand that disciplined, focused, and fundamentally sound practice is the true key to unlocking a player's full potential on the court.
