PG 101
Most players train skills.
Not decisions.
That’s why it breaks down in games.
Cadeau controlled pace all night
with his decision-making.

It’s clarity.
Players play faster when they understand expectations.

Defense 101
- Being able to score might be able to get you on the court. Being able to defend will KEEP you on the court!

Preparation
- Shooting 100 game speed shots, will always be more valuable than 500 lazy shots. Success follows proper preparation!

Free Throws
- A lot of games are decided at the FT line. Get your reps in at practice, step up to the line, and shoot them with confidence!

Defense
- If you can defend, you'll find a role. If you can't, your coach will find someone that can!
