Quit Dancing With The Ball

There's a sign in the Boston Celtic's locker room
which says:

'No Dancing with the Ball'

Meaning don't just dribble the ball endlessly with
a defender on you when you are NOT going
anywhere. You need to have a purpose and a plan
or you're going to get in trouble and create a lot of
turnovers.

As a shooter too it's just as important to have
purpose and intent and not just be drifting through
a game winging it. Yes, you will improvise. That's
one of the beauties of the game of basketball, but
you're going to want to improvise off the basics of
your offense. You need to study your team's
offense and make sure you know how to contribute.

If you don't know what to do from there take the
advice of Coach Patrick Chylinski in his e-report
on how to average 20 points per game:

One of the best ways to become a better scorer is
to watch great players play the game, and then
copy what they do well. Pay attention to what
great college and NBA players do on the offensive
end of the court, and try to do those same things
when you play.

For example, watch how good players move
without the basketball. Watch how they set up
and use screens from their teammates. Watch
the decisions they make in terms of shot
selection and the actual types of shots they take,
and in what situations.

Study their moves on the court and parts of their
game that make them great, and you'll improve
your game. That's one great way to shoot with
more purpose and intent.

Shoot For The Stars,

P.S. If you're ready to amp up your scoring you
want to learn from guys who have been there.
Patrick Chylinski has been a top scorer at every
level including pro ball where he averaged almost
30 ppg in Europe. His 'Average 20 Points A
Game: How To Become A Big-Time Scorer" is
chocked full of practical steps you can take to
mold yourself into an offensive juggernaut.

There's still time in your season to make a big
difference, but don't delay too long. Luckily you
can have this valuable information in your hot
little hands in minutes if you are ready.
