Xavier Newsletter NEWSLETTER #61 - 2008-09 LARRY BROWN - MAN DEFENSE THOUGHTS 1. When a team runs a 1-4 flat along the baseline at the end of a quarter, half, or game I like switching into a 1-2-2 zone. 2. Get your team in great shape with defensive drills. Put your defense in early as a coach. Let the defense be ahead of the offense. It takes five players playing together to be a great defensive team. They will develop pride in working hard together. This will carry over to offense. Develop chemistry with team defense. 3. If a coach puts his offense in before his defense, the defense plays the play. 4. As a defender, always know who's beside you and who's behind you. 5. When you switch on defense take something away, deny. 6. I never remember losing a game because of constant backdoors or lobs by the opponent. That's why I want to make offensive players "drivers" by pressuring the ball. And, off the ball, I want to take away passes by denying. 7. You can't pressure the ball on the perimeter and then allow it to be easily passed to the post. Front the post when you pressure the ball. 8. In the NBA you can't allow the offense to run their plays. They will kill you. You must disrupt. 9. As a college coach I spent 30 minutes per practice on guarding the dribble. 10. On defense I love to deny one pass away. Don't let the offense change sides with the ball. 11. Why would the defense double team in a late clock situation? You will give up a shot unnecessarily. 12. Work on "shell defense" everyday. Don't get caught up in the offense's alignment, mix it up. 13. 4 on 4 and 3 on 3 defensive drills put more stress on the defensive players, assignments. 14. Vince Carter and Tracy McGrady are great on ball defenders. 15. As a College coach, I wanted to become a great defensive team and an equally great rebounding team. I'll take my chances if we are stopping people defensively. 16. Teach full court shell before half court shell. 17. If you front the post, you also must have great ball pressure.

In preparation for the Olympics, during the recent qualifying tournament in South America, the defensive emphasis on the ball was "no middle". 19. Jason Kidd said that he prefers to "down" the sideline ballscreen as a defender. 20. When you come to help, stop the man, not the ball. Run to his outside shoulder. 21. Little guys should always front the post all the way out with no boundaries. 22. As we scored more points on offense, so did our opponents. 23. When defending elbow ballscreens, no hedge is needed. (Diagram #23) 24. Versus a sideline ballscreen go over the screener and under the hedger. You must have a hard hedge to accomplish this.

X5 has awareness, but isn't required to help. A hedge by X5 will result in an offensive advantage.

The explosive, strong and speedy Griffen made quick impressions on the USC coaching staff and Trojan fans during his freshman season on campus, earning a slew of postseason recognition. Friday, Griffen and his teammates completed another full workout, and after, he stood and talked about the upcoming season. Despite the short breaths, Griffen's mouth moved as quickly as his feet, and his excitement about his sophomore season is bubbling over. "I'm loving it right now," he said. "I'm just feeding off the energy." With the team heading into the final weeks, Griffen said his teammates and he are trying to dig deep and finish strong. "They're just trying to get us ready for the long season by getting us in Richardson Sophomore defensive end Everson shape now. Everyone's pushing through it. It helps us come together as Griffen has been putting in a lot of a team even more," Griffen said. "This is the final push before camp. hard work this summer. We have to get in shape. Well, we're already in shape, but we have to keep working hard and maintain. It's about pushing through." And when the tank feels empty, like it did at the end of Friday's team run, Griffen leans on his fellow Trojans to keep going. "There's so much more competition when everyone's out here. When you're working by yourself, you're not being competitive," he said. "That's what these workouts are all about — always being competitive, always beating the other guy, always making him work harder. "That's what we do here, and that's why we're the best here." To be his best this season, Griffen said, he has to be totally healthy. Griffen's been fighting off a pair of minor injuries this summer, but he doesn't either to be problem. "I've been focused on getting my body back right, focusing on getting my ankle and my shoulder all right," Griffen said. "I want to make sure I'm 100 percent going into camp. I want to make sure there isn't anything where if I knick it, it turns into something. "They were just little things. I just need to get them back into shape and get them stronger." One thing Griffen's not too worried about, though, is his mind. With a year of experience, Griffen's been able to excel this summer. "You know what to look out for. I won't say you not what the coaches are thinking, but you do get into a rhythm and into the habit of what to do," he said. "You learn as you go even more. As a sophomore, my mind's already mentally strong. That's what the freshmen have to focus on. If you get your mind right and stronger, everything will work out." And having veterans like senior Kyle Moore around all over the defense doesn't do any harm, either. "It's leadership. When I'm slacking, he tells me. It really is everybody — (Rey Maualuga), (Brian Cushing), (Clay Matthews), (Fili Moala)," Griffen said. "They'll get on everyone. I'm loving how hard we're working as a team. "When Aug. 30 comes around, Virginia has a handful waiting for it." And as the days peel away and the team heads towards its first game of the season, Griffen is ready to make his sophomore season a special one. "I'm just ready for my time. Once the game rolls around and I get on the field, I do what I do," Griffen said. "I'm just here to help the team. I want the team to do well. If you work hard, then the team will work hard. When it's game time, it's going to show. "Because if everyone is working hard together, there won't be any loose screws." .

  • Coaching Retreat Notes Calapari / Larry Brown 2007 in Tunica Mississippi
    Coaching Retreat Notes Calapari / Larry Brown 2007 In Tunica Mississippi Larry Eustachy: THOUGHTS ON THE PROFESSION: • The hardest part of not having a coaching job is the Unknown. • If you coach long enough, you will: win the league, finish in last place, get a better job, and get fired. • "I forgot where I came from, and wanted to re-live a collegiate lifestyle as a coach." Coaches need to be able to handle success. Has a lot of admiration for Jay Wright and they way he remained the same during his ascension in the coaching profession. COMPONANTS OF HIS COACHING METHODOLOGY: • Use breakdown chart to grade player performance in practice and games. Got the chart from Rick Majerus – his team's are traditionally the best prepared in the game. • Chart example – When a shot goes up: 3,4,5, to O-Boards with "Reckless Abandon" and the 1&2 get back on defense. The staff utilizes game film to calculate scores for each player. • Charting helps to truly hold players accountable for the things you are demanding that they do • The chart doesn't lie. A player with less breakdowns that minutes played has inevitably played very well. • You must teach your players learn to "think while they are playing" and take pride in being held accountable for their responsibilities on the court. • Great teams have the ability to play on any court without any change in performance level (home, road, etc). • Coach Bob Boyd always said that you must find a way to take something from the chalkboard to the floor in order for it to show up in a game.

  • Renormalizing Individual Performance Metrics for Cultural Heritage Management of Sports Records
    Renormalizing individual performance metrics for cultural heritage management of sports records Alexander M. Petersen1 and Orion Penner2 1Management of Complex Systems Department, Ernest and Julio Gallo Management Program, School of Engineering, University of California, Merced, CA 95343 2Chair of Innovation and Intellectual Property Policy, College of Management of Technology, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland. (Dated: April 21, 2020) Individual performance metrics are commonly used to compare players from different eras. However, such cross-era comparison is often biased due to significant changes in success factors underlying player achievement rates (e.g. performance enhancing drugs and modern training regimens). Such historical comparison is more than fodder for casual discussion among sports fans, as it is also an issue of critical importance to the multi- billion dollar professional sport industry and the institutions (e.g. Hall of Fame) charged with preserving sports history and the legacy of outstanding players and achievements. To address this cultural heritage management issue, we report an objective statistical method for renormalizing career achievement metrics, one that is par- ticularly tailored for common seasonal performance metrics, which are often aggregated into summary career metrics – despite the fact that many player careers span different eras. Remarkably, we find that the method applied to comprehensive Major League Baseball and National Basketball Association player data preserves the overall functional form of the distribution of career achievement, both at the season and career level. As such, subsequent re-ranking of the top-50 all-time records in MLB and the NBA using renormalized metrics indicates reordering at the local rank level, as opposed to bulk reordering by era.

  • NBA Draft Lottery Probabilities
    AMERICAN JOURNAL OF UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH VOL. 2, NO. 3 (2003) NBA Draft Lottery Probabilities Chad R. Florke and Mark D. Ecker Department of Mathematics University of Northern Iowa Cedar Falls, Iowa 50614-0506 USA Received: November 6, 2003 Accepted: December 1, 2003 ABSTRACT We examine the evolution of the National Basketball Association’s (NBA’s) Draft Lottery by showing how the changes implemented by the Board of Governors have impacted the probabilities of obtaining top picks in the ensuing draft lottery. We explore how these changes have impacted the team with the worst record and also investigate the conditional probabilities of the fourth worst team receiving the third pick. These calculations are conditioned upon two specified teams receiving the first two selections. We show that the probability of the fourth worst team receiving the third pick can be made unconditionally. We calculate the probabilities for the fourth worst team to move up in the draft to receive either the first, second, or third selections, along with its chance of keeping the fourth pick or even dropping in the draft. We find there is a higher chance for the fourth worst team to drop to the fifth, sixth or seventh position than to stay at the fourth position or move up. I. INTRODUCTION the record of finish of the teams, i.e., the number of games won for each team (which a. National Basketball Association (NBA) may also include playoff wins). For example Draft Lottery History and Evolution in football, the team with the worst record (fewest number of wins during the season) In all major professional team will draft first in each round while the best sports, recruiting amateur players from team (the Super Bowl winner) will draft last college, high school, or overseas is vital to in each round.
