Featured Quote...
"Fundamentals are the most crucial part of my game in the NBA. Everything I did, everything I achieved, can be traced back to the way I approached the fundamentals and how I applied them to my abilities. They really are the basic building blocks or principles that make everything work. I don’t care what you’re doing or what you’re trying to accomplish — you can’t skip fundamentals if you want to be the best. The minute you get away from fundamentals, the bottom can fall out. You have to monitor your fundamentals constantly because the only thing that never changes will be your attention to them. The fundamentals will never change. It comes down to a very simple saying: There is a right way and a wrong way to do things. You can practice shooting eight hours a day, but if your fundamentals are wrong, then all you become is very good at shooting the wrong way. Get the fundamentals down and the level of everything you do will rise.” Michael Jordan

Dartfish Champion - Texas
LoneStar Basketball Academy has upgraded our Dartfish Trainer software to the TeamPro 5.0 version allowing us to apply extraordinary video replay and analysis techniques to accelerate skill development and performance for the serious athlete. The new Tagging capability supports game video analysis, and facilitates production of custom game-action highlights for follow-on evaluation and review. As a Dartfish Champion for Texas, we seek to pioneer and promote effective application of this new technology in the field of basketball training. Check the Online Video page for some Dartfish basketball training clips.
Pictured here is a custom Dartfish video workstation designed by Rick Allison (founder of LoneStar Basketball Academy). It is basically a "turnkey" system with integrated video projector and large portable on-court video screen. With two gigabyte of RAM memory in the HP Pavilion dv9010us 1.81 GigaHertz laptop, a "live" continuous video delay greater than 45 seconds can be attained. This allows an athlete to view his or her performance automatically following an intensity/endurance drill while the next athlete is performing the drill. A 200 GigaByte Firewire drive and 250 GigaByte USB drive provide ample video storage for capturing training session performance and hosting training reference videos.
Second Shooting Ace Joins 175 Club...
The last week of July (2005) I had the opportunity to work with young Andy Garcia in Laredo at his dad's summer Elite Basketball Academy for select high school and D-I players. Andy's score for the first PureShooter game was a very respectable 129, but the next day he locked in and shot a record-tying 189 matching the previous high score of Ed Palubinskas and becoming only the second PureShooter to join the "175 Club". Like Ed, he missed a perfect game by one 3-point shot...attaining the highest PureShooter record score of 189 points. The only way to get a higher score and still not shoot a perfect game is to only miss one or two free throws. Click here to see his score.
Fundamental Skills...Missing in Action !!
Many young athletes today are so focused on playing in leagues and tournaments every weekend that the athlete essentially has no "off-season" to develop better skills. Some coaches are starting to notice. [more...]
