Alex Sarama makes a welcome return to the podcast to discuss his fantastic new book 'Transforming Basketball' and to unpack some of the ideas that are within it.

Although Alex is a basketball coach and the book is based on Basketball, it is actually a briliiant read for coaches of any sport, especially team sports. This conversation explores many of these ideas including:

Why '2 ball dribbling' is a complete waste of time
Why coaches are so dependent on blocked practice and drills
When, how and why to use set plays
Some of Alex's brillient practice designs like 'floor is lava', 'mosquito shooting' and 'jungle shooting'.

I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.
