This review is from: Encyclopedia of Defensive Basketball Drills (Hardcover)

Given to me by a women's college coach,this is the best book I've seen that breaks defensive skills into not only specific drills BUT tells which defense needs this skill and which does not. I am amazed at the insight some of the drills portray. I thank him for writing this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Book for Every Coach, January 10, 2002

This review is from: Encyclopedia of Defensive Basketball Drills (Hardcover)

This book is a must for all basketball coaches, no matter what kind of defense they use. Coach Paye addresses all the defenses in seperate areas of the book. This book includes drills that will strengthen not only individual defensive play, but team play as well. What seperates this book from the rest is Coach Paye does not leave out even the smallest of details. This is true of every book Coach Paye has written.
