MORE VALUABLE INFORMATION

Looks like Boston Celtics assistant coach Kevin Eastman not only won a championship with the Celtics this past year but now he has a blog. I think this is great news.  We need more guys who are willing to share their information and help raise awareness to playing the right way.

In his latest entry, he writes about the importance of Discipline.

Discipline takes on many forms depending on the player: from Ray Allenarriving at the game site 3 hours before tip off so he can go through his shooting preparations before anyone else on either team is in there (and I will tell you this was the case every night because I was right there with him), to making a minimum of 100 shots before each game so that he develops not only good form on his shot but also the workout discipline needed on a daily basis to become an improved shooter (we estimated that he made almost 12,000 shots total before all of the games combined last year — and 12,000 shots if done with fundamental form can improve your shot, to Kevin Garnett working on some part of his game just about every one of those 287 days (he is a very big believer in fundamentals and repetition). And this doesn’t even take into account a Paul Pierce working on the treadmill many days whether we are practicing or not.

PLAY THE RIGHT WAY!
