Our newest DVD, Scoring Without the Ball is the most advanced player improvement video ever produced. The techniques in this basketball video will increase your basketball IQ, and help you develop a set of skills the vast majority of players do not possess.
The video's longest chapter (24 minutes) is on how to react to your teammate's dribble penetration, an essential skill because the drive is the most common offensive act in basketball today. Included in this chapter is an explanation of the Circle Movement. (In short, if defenses are taught to rotate and help one direction, offensive players should rotate the opposite direction!)
Offense without the ball is an essential skill to becoming a complete player, but almost totally overlooked in basketball today.
Bottom line: Every player and coach who has a grasp on the basics should study Scoring Without the Ball. This basketball video is the most thorough and groundbreaking study on playing without the ball ever conducted. And with pro footage proving the techniques work in real games, it's a fact that you're going to benefit from using the skills in this DVD.

Barry Brodzinski,
Five-Star Basketball Shooting Instructor
Coach Brodzinski has worked with some of the best shooters in the country during his time as shooting instructor at 5-Star. His expertise is on display in this DVD. The art of shooting is viewed from five different angles; getting open, using screens, the jab series, dribble moves and free throws. Each of these represents areas that players must master to become scorers. Getting open is often difficult for most players. Using the V- and L-cuts shown here, players can use skill to get open to receive the ball. Next, Brodzinski demonstrates how to effectively use the down screen, back screen and ball screen. The third area involves creating space by using the Jab Step. Highlights are the Pro Step Jab, the quick shot move, the jab and cross opposite and the Space Maker Move. Using dribble moves is another way to create shots. The cross over, inside-out dribble and the spin move are described and demonstrated. Lastly, a big emphasis is put on foul shooting. To make it realistic, foul-shooting practice must be done under duress while tired. The Combo 24 foul shooting drill combines sprinting with foul shooting. Players learn to concentrate and make important foul shots while exhausted. This DVD will assist players in becoming the best offensive players they can be!
