To reiterate one more time, unless you were playing flag football, there is not a good official in the country that would’ve called the first two reaches a foul. ⁦Cal Basketball⁩ ⁦Notre Dame Men's Basketball⁩

Truly all-time atmosphere last night at USA in Lubbock last night. Just an incredible transformation of turning ⁦Texas Tech Basketball⁩ into a “basketball school,” too. Be proud of your team. Kudos to ⁦Houston Men's Hoops 🏀 🐾⁩ & their “culture” on another ⁦Big 12 Conference⁩ title.

⁦Christian Anderson Jr.⁩ was 5-6 115 lb. when Juwan Howard & Michigan Men's Basketball offered him a scholarship. They went out on a limb. As dual citizen, Anderson was deemed too little for USABJNT camp. Regardless of what happens in today’s Gold Medal game, he is tournament MVP contender.

Amazing how the Arizona Basketball @Kpeat10 narrative has changed over the year. To me, he’s in a similar position to former Wildcat Aaron Gordon who shot 42% from the line as a freshman. He turned out OK. (Watch him destroy a lottery pick here 11 months ago.) USABJNT

Coaches: “Playing off 2 feet” allows you time to make good decisions. But “playing off 1 foot,” as well, creates indecision on part of defenders. Watch how Alabama Men’s Basketball labaron philon keeps all three of Michigan Men's Basketball Top 15 NBA Draft picks guessing. Coach Paint

Coaches: I’ve been thinking about this all day and I’m not sure I have a good answer. How do you get your best player of the ball in this situation, especially on a missed free-throw? My NBA friends tell me there’s not enough practice time for these type of situations. Thoughts?

Coaches: “One Dribble Per Second” happened to my team organically when I did not prepare them for this game situation so we practiced it. As ⁦UCLA Men’s Basketball⁩ shows again tonight, it’s nearly foolproof. ⁦Coach Paint⁩

Coaches: The best video on “winning” you will hear. Indiana Basketball Bob Knight filmed this for adidas Basketball in the mid 80’s & it is still timeless—and priceless. 18 minutes long. Enjoy this over the weekend

For those interested in end of ⁦Cal Basketball⁩ ⁦Notre Dame Men's Basketball⁩ game last night, this is the new “continuous motion” rule. You will see in the next video that the Fighting Irish player tries to foul at midcourt & misses. I believe the officials got the play right.

Coaches: An emergency tweet on ⁦Tennessee Basketball⁩ last-second play to beat ⁦Illinois Men's Basketball⁩. A “dribble per second” is fool-proof. Watch the added touch with the Bob McKillop butt screen at the foul line. Vols use this screen in their transition offense.

Coaches: I saw ⁦Kansas Men’s Basketball⁩ put this play in in October for Peterson. I am sure they have run a few times. But it always reminds me: “Don’t run all of your best stuff early in the season.” Save some good stuff for conference play.

Coaches: Remember that this is a “straight path foul.” If the defender is not legal when the ball handler starts his drive, ball handler is allowed a straight path to the basket. (We’re all getting used to this.) Good officiating by Brooks Wells here.

I’ve done easily 75 games in Kansas Men’s Basketball Allen Fieldhouse but last night was a Top 5 atmosphere in there for me. I think many of the UConn Men's Basketball fans I talked to were blown away. At its best, there is no place like it in college basketball.

Call this a block, a charge or “no call,” but not a flop. There’s legitimate contact here but NCAA wants this called so officials have no choice if they want to work in March.

Coaches: The “One Dribble Per Second” rule came about after my poor coaching in a late-game situation. The next day we tested this in practice. It’s relatively fool proof. When your player catches it, there’s no need to locate clock. I smile when I hear it in a TO huddle now.👍🏼🏀

I saw Cedric Coward drop 30 for Washington State Men's Basketball in December before his injury. He’s definitely a 20 to 40 selection in this NBA Draft & has smart agents. If he stays in college, he’s a starter on national championship contender. Started career in D-3.Coach Paint

Coaches: BYU Men's Basketball 6-9 Freshman Egor Demin is my favorite passer in college. His Euro background in pick & roll & his unique size has allowed him to master what I call “Three Levels of PNR.” Few college guards understand “destroying the tag help” like he does. Coach Paint

Coaches: If this gets you two baskets a season, it’s worth the ten minutes it takes to put the play in. And, for the high school coaches, a layup is just as good as a lob dunk. Baylor Men’s Basketball Big 12 Conference

Coaches: Drake Basketball is 11-0. Their offense is a free-wheeling 5 Out style with ball screens & DHO’s. But here’s a sneaky little Stojakovic Cut I like. We see this a lot in 3x3 Basketball | FIBA3x3. Coach Paint
