Real ‘Fundamentals’ of Success
on the Basketball Court?”

Announcing the basketball speed techniques guaranteed to slingshot
your players past any team still wasting all their time ‘perfecting’
bounce passes and the pick and roll


Click here to hear more about
Basketball Speed

Your basketball players are spending too much time on the wrong fundamentals.

I know, I know – they need to know how to set a picture perfect pick and roll, screen, or trap.

But what good do these skills do them if they don’t have the speed and quickness to keep an offensive player from slashing to the basket, defend a fast break or help on a missed defensive assignment?

The key to success on the basketball court goes beyond simple X’s and O’s, chest passes and boxing out.

Today’s game is quicker, faster and more explosive. We can all talk about how the game ‘used to be’ so much better, more refined, more whatever.

But success today depends as much on athletic skill as it does on traditional ‘fundamentals.’

Good or bad, right or wrong, if you want to win games you have to evolve with the times. And that means showing your players how to quickly get into the positions that result in scoring points or preventing them from being scored.

These skills must be as natural to your players as taking a lay up.

Because basketball is a game of reaction and countering your opponent. Athletes with basketball skill can be successful, but athletes with skill and great footwork speed are going to win every time.

Every coach talks about basketball fundamentals, but somehow the fundamentals of on-court speed and movement are overlooked, if not entirely ignored.

The bottom line....If you can't move, you can't win!

You need a resource that will help every athlete. And unlike those other programs on training for basketball, Lee Taft’s Basketball Speed will show you such true fundamental skills as:

How to handle a pump fake on a close out, then defend the penetration move.
How to blanket a ball handler on the drive and pull back move.
The absolute best way to defend a fast breaking point guard in a one-on-one setting.
Why the ‘pivot’ may be getting your players beat on defense.
Why the ‘regular’ way of teaching the defensive stance is slowing your athletes down

You see Basketball Speed will give you the ability to analyze your players’ movement skills and make any necessary adjustments on the spot.

More importantly you’ll be able to adapt the movements to each individual athlete. If an athlete is struggling with lateral deceleration, then you will have a proven teaching tool to build a rock solid foundation for your athlete.

If your athletes are great movers on the court, then you can use the techniques in Basketball Speed to fine tune any issue that arises.

Here is Lee Taft’s Basketball Speed Program:
