Ep. 280 In-Season Tips to Elevate Your Team

In this episode Coach Brendan Suhr dives into the essential strategies and philosophies every coach should focus on during the in-season grind. Drawing on decades of experience, he emphasizes the importance of keeping practices fresh and purposeful, sharing a technique he pioneered with Chuck Daly: the controlled scrimmage. This approach helps teams simulate game situations, improve conditioning, and build competitive habits without relying on traditional drills. Coach Suhr also discusses how to integrate situational basketball into practice, ensuring players are prepared for unexpected shifts in game dynamics, like sudden zone defenses or last-second plays. He highlights the necessity of teaching players how to adjust quickly and execute without constant input from the bench—an often-overlooked key to success.
