Why write a book on coaching basketball? I was a head basketball coach for thirty-six years, evenly divided between high school and junior college circles. I also served for ten seasons as a volunteer/assistant coach for three different coaching friends. Since retirement, I have had the desire to write a book on coaching the sport. I spent a career "Xing" and "O-ing."

Toni Morrison, Nobel Prize-winning author, was quoted as, "If there is a book that you want to read, and it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it." With that quote in mind, I decided to direct my literary attention toward the beginning inexperienced, the novice, the apprentice, the rookie. I have attempted to fulfill that dream and, hopefully, to make some small contribution to a big game.
