Welcome to the NBA Coaches Playbook, developed by the National Basketball Coaches Association (NBCA) in conjunction with the NBA. In the pages that follow, you will have access to the knowledge of many of the best and brightest basketball coaching minds in the world.
Our NBA coaches and those at the top level of the sport internationally are the great teachers and strategists of the game and are the key components in facilitating the extraordinary individual and team performances we witness throughout the season.
NBA Coaches Playbook is a treasure trove of basketball instruction and insight and is sure to be a frequently referenced manual on every coachs bookshelf.
Each person who contributed time and effort to this book deserves our gratitude. The NBCA should also be acknowledged for donating its share of the proceeds to NBA Coaches Care, a ticket purchase program for disadvantaged youth, operated in cooperation with the Boys and Girls Clubs of America.
I encourage you to take advantage of this great opportunity to tap into the experience and wisdom presented in such a clear and useful manner. I can assure you that at various points of the NBA seasons ahead, you will be glad you did.
David J. Stern
NBA Commissioner
Basketball has been a big part of my life. Coaching the sport for 33 seasons at the high school, college, and professional levels; conducting clinics all over the world; and serving as a color analyst on TV broadcasts since 1982 have fueled my enthusiasm for the game through the years.
When Im conducting a clinic or doing a telecast, I try to share that passion and appreciation of basketball. Its not simply a matter of one group of talented athletes playing a game against another. Rather, its a wonderfully strategic game that requires exceptional discipline, competitiveness, skill, spatial awareness, quickness, tactical understanding, and strategic execution by one cohesive quintet of players to outperform the opposition.
When I present the game, whether to a group of coaches in a high school gym or on the air in front of millions of viewers, I never underestimate the knowledge of the audience. Instead, I try to challenge their basketball IQ with some of the knowledge Ive gained about the game since first playing it as a youngster in Elizabeth, New Jersey.
People learn from being challenged. And thats exactly what will happen if you read and think about the material in NBA Coaches Playbook. This outstanding basketball resource contains a wealth of insight and instruction about the game that any serious coach, player, and even fan will find both fascinating and instructive.
Im especially impressed that each of the coaches who contribute to this book presents his basketball knowledge on that part of the game for which he is considered the expert. I also find it extraordinary that the coaches, due to their diverse backgrounds and various ages, provide an insightful, well-rounded perspective on the game.
Those of you who coach or play the sport will find a treasure of technical and tactical teaching elements from the pros that will add immeasurably to your approach to the game. I encourage you to accept the challenge to learn the concepts and actions presented in the following pages so that you may improve your coaching and playing skills. This is a rare opportunitythe equivalent of 21 world-class basketball clinic sessionsto advance your understanding of the game and make you and your team more effective the next time you step on the court.
Hubie Brown
Two-time NBA Coach of the Year (1978, 2004)
Basketball Hall of Fame member (2005)
Even though I am from a soccer-mad country, I have always been fascinated by basketball in the United States, a remote paradise for a basketball fan located on the other side of the ocean. I started to correspond with several college coaches. These generous coaches included Bob Zuffelato, former head coach of Boston College and now with the Toronto Raptors as a scout; Chuck Daly, head coach at the University of Pennsylvania, who went on to win two consecutive NBA titles with the Detroit Pistons and was the (only) Dream Team coach, guiding the team to a gold medalwinning performance at the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona; and the mythical Lou Carnesecca, the Hall of Fame coach of St. Johns University.
