Hi Coach,
What does it take to become a great coach?
To me, the answer is pretty simple.
You must be a great communicator and you must be a student of the game.
You must study the methods and schemes of other great coaches.
Sometimes you simply "steal" their ideas and other times their ideas stimulate your imagination and you create something that works even better.
This is how the game evolves and great coaches develop.
If it is your goal to become a great coach, I recommend that you take a deep dive into the strategies of Brad Stevens.
We have assembled a collection of playbooks featuring Coach Stevens systems. We have included playbooks
from his successful runs a Butler and the Boston Celtics.
His positionless
offensive system is highly effective and and has become one of the fastest-growing trends in the game.
In addition, his very creative ATO's are some of the most effective in the game and have been copied by coaches at every level.
This bundle of playbooks has been one of our very best sellers and includes the following resources following resources:
Boston Celtics Offense: Pace, Space, and Pick-n-Pop
We might have gone overboard here.
143 pages, broken out into 14 distinct sections.
You can learn his extremely uptempo offensive game plan, effective against the NBA’s modern defensive paradigm (ICE).
Butler Bulldogs: “Brad Stevens Years”
I’m a huge fan of actual game breakdowns. In my opinion, this approach is the only way to analyze how things work in the “real world”
We've got 130 pages breaking down 7 complete collegiate games where Stevens lead the Butler Bulldogs against a tough range of opponents. Duke, VCU, Florida, Wisconsin…etc.
You’ll discover the very roots of the system the Celtics have in place today…
