Porter Moser's Skills & Drills Compendium for Sustained Basketball Success

In this video presentation Moser shares his coaching philosophy and how he goes about the task of building up the individual skill levels of his players to collectively improve the team. In this video you will get terrific, program building coaching advice and a myriad of drills to turbo-charge your next practice.

Not only will you get these great drills, but you will also get a proven and effective baseline end-of-game play and plenty of other ideas for strengthening your program’s culture!

‘Reminder’ Drills & Building Your Transition Defense

You get what you emphasize. To begin practice, Coach Moser dives into what he calls ‘reminder drills’ – mandatory things that teams must work on every day to improve. The coach provides details on everything from defense to offense in small group settings before moving into team drill segments. One thing that has been a hallmark of Moser’s team’s offense is its ability to share and move the basketball. That principle is shown in the ‘Raptor Passing drill’ – an excellent and effective drill that works on building an instinctive need for players to make the extra pass (or ‘one-more pass’ as Moser calls it) and incorporates drive-and-kick actions into a continuous drill that gets multiple players involved. 

Moser also goes over a Disadvantage drill that works on transition defensive principles and improves how quickly his players can convert from offense to defense. 

Staying with the theme of transition, Moser shows how he builds his transition defense in a 3-on-3 setting. Players learn the cues and positioning to help them become comfortable playing in the full court. The next drill, called the ‘Funnel Jump Drill’ helps to teach players how to influence the ball toward the sideline and provides them with an understanding of defensive spacing in transition.

Shooting Drills, Special Situations

Again, emphasizing a core principle on offense, Moser provides viewers with two effective shooting drills that also reinforces the concept of making the extra pass. The ‘Baseline Drive, Baseline Drift Shooting Drill’ is a great drill that includes multiple players and allows each player to get shots while simultaneously working on reading the defense during a defensive hand off. Meanwhile, the next drill, the ‘One More’ Shooting Drill gets players competing against each other AND the clock while also emphasizing continuous movement and sharing the basketball.

Moser also goes over several special situations, including how to use a ball screen to get multiple advantages against a 2-3 Zone Defense. Viewers are also treated to a baseline out-of-bounds play in a winding-down clock situation. Lastly, Moser provides valuable coaching points on how to get the most out of practicing special situations through timed scrimmages during practice.

Porter Moser delivers again in this jam-packed on-the-court presentation. Not only do viewers receive great drills that they can immediately use in their next practice, but the knowledge and ideas for building a strong program will help even the most veteran coaches!
