All-New Hoops U. Book Review |
|
![]() |
I just added a review for the book, The Perfect Jump Shot by Scott Jaimet. This is a great book to guide through shooting and teaching the jump shot. The Perfect Jump Shot by Scott Jaimet is actually quite the concept for a book! How many books, video's, or clinics have you seen about shooting a basketball where they actually talked about the jump shot? The only thing I can recall about learning the jump shot is having been told to release it just as you reach your high point. True, but there really is a lot more to the jump shot than that; and there is a lot more to it than a normal, or set shot. Coach Jaimet, in The Perfect Jump Shot, breaks it down and teaches it a simple and understandable way. |

Special Play of the Day! |

This play originally appeared in the March 1974 edition of "The Coaching Clinic", a monthly publication published by Prentice-Hall, Inc. It was submitted by my dad, Jim Alfonso, back when he was a freshman boys coach. "Coaching basketball at the freshman level in high school poses some unique challenges. In our program at Antigo (Wisconsin) High School, we bring together boys from nine different eighth-grade teams in the district. Our primary goals are twofold: prepare each boy for junior varsity and varsity competition, and instill a winning habit." |
