Play Like Kobe Bryant, by Mike Lee
Monday, June 8th, 2009Throughout the playoffs one thing that has really stood out to me about Kobe is he is never in a rush. Even in transition he is always playing with a controlled attack, attentive and aware of what the defense might try to do to stop him, he is always ready to react with his counter.
In workouts or practice you need to get out of your comfort zone. You need to go so hard that you are going to blackout, but when game time rolls around you need to turn it back a half speed. I would say you want to work out at a 10, but when game time rolls around you don’t ever want to go past 9.5, unless sprinting back on defense or diving for a loose ball. Too many players are always playing at a 10 and let the defense speed them up with pressure.
Two teaching points to keep in mind when you are playing against pressure:
1. Initiate to Separate: If you want to bounce back against pressure or use a pindown you sometimes need to initiate the contact to separate
2. Change Your Pace to Create Space: If you are bringing the ball up against pressure or a player more athletic than you it is crucial that you change up your pace and attack when the defender relaxes. Changing your speed is also critical playing without the basketball. Whether making an L-Cut or coming off a pindown. Watch the NBA Finals or YouTube some Richard Hamilton clips. He is never moving at the same speed, BUT always moving.
Pick and Choose your spots to attack like Kobe. Your moves should be instinctive and a counter to how the defense tries to play you, not predetermined
What Separates Kobe Bryant…Perfect Feet, by Luke Meier
Friday, April 24th, 2009A few nights ago in the Lakers first round playoff series against the Jazz, Reggie Miller made the statement that Kobe Bryant’s footwork is what separates him from all the other players in the league. Michael Jordan was also recognized for his incredible footwork. It’s no surprise that two of the greatest players in basketball history have this common bond. They developed great feet through countless repetition and their second to none work ethics. Great footwork is essential for a fundamentally sound basketball player. Regardless of size, strength, or athleticism, you have the ability to develop great footwork. Like anything else in the game of basketball it takes repetition. Here are a few tips to develop great feet:
1. Learn the correct footwork and rehearse it slowly without a ball. Once, you have the move down, begin to speed it up until you can go full speed while maintaining the correct footwork.
2. Add a ball. Again start slowly, mastering the footwork, and speed it up until you can go full speed.
3. Practice, Practice, Practice! Practice doesn’t make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect. During your workouts make a conscious effort to focus on your feet. At the end of a workout when you are tired, don’t let fatigue make your feet sloppy. Execute each repetition with perfect feet!
