Coach, if you're training your players to shoot a Swiss shot every time, you are training your players to miss short.

I know that might sound crazy, but it's true. And now the data proves it.

After analyzing over 100 million shots, basketball data scientists at NOAA basketball have uncovered the formula of the perfect shot,

helping players on 28 of the 30 NBA teams

improve their accuracy faster than ever before. And now, through our new partnership with

Noah basketball, the same patented shot tracking technology being used by the pros is available to

you in the NOAA backboard for a fraction of the cost. I just got one for my team

to test it out at practice and my guys are thriving with it. Learn more about ordering a NOAA

backboard for your team today at NOAABasketball.com. That's N-O-A-H-Basketball.com.

could do a weekly podcast just on practices. And we try and touch on at least two or three times a

year because how we approach practice and what we think about, what we do, what we adjust, what we change, what we enhance. That really does happen week over week, month over month. And that conversation could probably never end. So let's kind of go up to date. Like where are we at with practice right now? What are some of the best learnings? You're in practice. We just started practice a couple weeks ago. And there's things that we've changed this year. There's things that you've changed. There's things that we're doing better. There's things that we're enhanced. There's still questions we're trying to enhance, trying to make better. Let's just talk practice for a little while. I think coaches probably never get tired of this topic because they're thinking like we're thinking, how do we run better practices,

even if we have one or two

practices a week or if we practice six days a week, we feel like we never have enough time. We feel like
