Benoit Lelièvre’s Reviews > NBA Coaches Playbook: Techniques, Tactics, and Teaching Points > Status Update

I'm not enjoying what I thought I would about this book. Very much dug the principles of the fastbreak and the open floor offense, from George Karl.

I was looking forward to Phil Johnson's chapter about screening. It was a little light on information and heavy on play drawing, but I do know every screen type now.

Some really beginner stuff in Stan Van Gundy's chapter. I mean, I know what a fucking jab step is and how it is used in a game. It could've expanded on the off-ball movement too and used some visual references.

I wanted a book about Xs and Os to pass time before regular season, but it's a little more than that. I like it nonetheless because most of my knowledge is self-taught and I'm filling the gaps here.
