The Basketball Podcast: EP43 Hanno Möttölä on Playing Style

RELEASE DATE : 29/05/2019

In this week’s basketball coaching conversation, Finnish basketball coach Hanno Möttölä joins the podcast to share ideas to help your program define its playing style. Möttölä shares ideas from his playing and coaching career, as a leading figure in Finnish basketball, to help us to better understand how to run a basketball program.

Möttölä has been with the Helsinki Basketball Academy’s as an assistant coach since 2012. In that role he assists with player development, player recruitment, NCAA recruiting and many other roles. He also currently serves as an assistant coach for the Finnish men’s A2 team.

As a player, Möttölä became the first Finnish player in the NBA when he played for the Atlanta Hawks, and the first Finn in the Euroleague. He helped lead Utah to the NCAA Final 4 in 1998 playing for Rick Majerus. He was also captain of the national team for 15 years appearing in one World Cup in 2014, and three European Championships (1995, 2011, 2013).

Quotes:

[On skipping fundamentals] “There’s a 3-point line with little kids early on everybody tries to heave a 3-point shot way before they have any kind of capacity to do it and that . . develops bad shooting mechanics.”

“It kind of goes back to skipping fundamentals. There is a danger that a lot of us coaches are in the same boat. We think that teaching tactical things develops great players.”

“You need to be smart to be able to execute a play but . . I think the coaches who play simpler at the junior level and really rely on fundamentals – passing, shooting, moving — . . they tend to produce more players.”

“Our identity was we try to be more aggressive on defense . . than everybody else . . we’re not the biggest, we’re not the most athletic but we can be the most aggressive team on defense.”

“We try to control the ball as early as possible . . we really try to set the tone with the on-ball defender.”

“You deny but you don’t turn your whole back to the ball . . steals don’t come by stealing, they come from positioning . . we want to disrupt the movement of the ball.”

“We hard show on every single player . . when they learn this aggressive style of defense, it’s a lot easier going to whatever program you’re going to next.”

“We have a weakside ‘I’ . . we do it pretty much on the basket line . . we have a very hard ball pressure . . the on-ball defender, that’s his job . . his hands have to take away the bullet pass [to the weakside].”

“It’s incredible, that with active, good hands, on-ball and four guys off that ball, what a difference it makes.”

“If you tell five 15-year olds . . to play zone, what’s the first thing they do? Everybody raises their hands . . then if you man-to-man, everybody has their hands down. So, if we can get man-to-man . . off-ball defenders to use their hands . . the court . . really shrinks in the eye of the ball handler.”

“We rely heavily on ball and player movement, and probably in that order. If there’s an open guy you pass to him . . we try to generate energy . . the more guys that get touches . . the more energy flows between players.”

“We try to play fast, we try to be aggressive . . make or miss we try to cross the half court by passing . . we want to establish a front rim runner every time.”

“One of the . . really good actions we ‘ve been using a lot . . after a post catch he takes a couple of really hard dribbles toward the middle . . and a full speed, downhill handoff with the guard on the top.”

“We don’t surprise anyone anymore . . but it’s hard to prepare for us in a couple of short days.”

“Their first taste of international basketball is with Lithuania . . a world class opponent . . and usually it’s a cruel wake-up call.”

“We believe that there is no reason why we can’t be the best at developing high school age kids in Europe . . we can find excuses but there’s no reason why we can’t be the best.”

“We really try to create positionless players so we can have 1 through 4 running ball screens . . it’s great having positionless players on offense but it might be even more valuable to have a positionless player on defense.”

“We came up with a saying, ‘Every day is a game day.’ If you approach every [practice] as if it’s a game day, I think players are going to enjoy that.”

    You can certainly import your iPhone contacts to Gmail with the methods above. However, syncing iPhone contacts to Google is not the only way to back up your files. You can transfer your iPhone contacts to computer and vice versa at no cost if you need to. Go to Part 2 to learn how to do it easily. If you feel technologically confident enough to sync contacts between Gmail accounts just by using Gmail itself, then go for it. But if you find it too confusing or not worth your time, then you can use software like PieSync instead. By using this service, some information may be shared with YouTube. There are several reasons for contacts to suddenly not show up on WhatsApp. In fact, there are several manifestations of this problem. For example, it could occur on a phone that is working perfectly fine without you having to actually mess up something . https://cashbvlb097532.timeblog.net/44880708/google-account-contacts-not-syncing We know this is Android Central, but it s hard to ignore such a large segment of users (even if they do end up changing sides more often than not). So if you re an iPhone user looking to save your contacts on your Google account, we ve got you covered. This tutorial will show you how to back up your iPhone contacts to your Google account in a jiffy. Please note: Your operator does not offer Device Guides. In case you are looking for a way to transfer iPhone Contacts to Gmail, you will find below 3 different methods to transfer Contacts from iPhone to your Gmail Account. Google Contacts and Gmail have great integration. But getting those contacts on your iPhone can be a bit hard to figure out at first. In this guide we’ll go thru how to access your Google Contacts on your iPhone iOS device.

    Love this! Can you do this to bathroom marble countertops? And tile floors? What kind of DIY skills do you have? Do you enjoy taking on home projects and learning new skills? When you account for the total cost of countertop replacement, you see real advantages in refinishing your countertops. And when you see the range of styles, colors and looks you can give your old countertops, you might want to try refinishing countertops versus replacing them. Oh man, I was slow-mo hyperventilating while you went through your sequence of mistakes. The first is the one that REALLY got me. SO SO SO SO often, I don’t trust myself. I think, “She has more experience, she must know what she’s doing.” During my renovation it has been SO HARD to take a deep breath and ask MYSELF, “What do I want?” Thank you for your cautionary tale, it gives me even more incentive to quieten the doubting voices and allow my inner one to speak out. http://studyroom.co.za/index.php?qa=user&qa_1=bungalow-renovations We did 2 coats of paint in the entire bathroom. This bathroom had the original paint from 1998 and really needed some work. That’s why the first step in any bathroom remodel is planning. Before you buy anything or hire anyone, think about what you want from your new bathroom. What is it about the room that doesn’t work for you now, and how can you fix it? List everything you want your remodeled bath to have, and then sort that list into must-haves and nice-to-haves. Moving on (house buying pun intended), I would hold onto your hats because Sarah of Room for Tuesday has done a bunch of killer bathroom DIYs you are going to love. Below we have two of her awesome bathrooms from two different homes. The before and afters are just too good so get ready. Your DIY bathroom demolition is almost complete. All that remains is to get rid of the bathtub or shower. The good news is that, while this step may require help for the heavy lifting, it’s fairly simple. So get your toolkit ready — you’ll need a lot of them to complete this step.

    The word “poker” is only mentioned once in California’s gambling code, under Penal Code Sec. 337j(e)(1). This law basically states that it is illegal to run any type of “controlled game,” meaning any poker or Pai Gow game, and any other game “played with cards or tiles, or both, and approved by the Division of Gambling Control.” Fortunately, in Penal Code Sec. 337j(e)(2)(D) we learn that “(games) not prohibited and made unlawful by statute or local ordinance” are just fine. And (2)(D) states that “Games played with cards in private homes or residences, in which no person makes money for operating the game, except as a player” are perfectly legal. To start with we’re not talking about “free” or “play money” poker apps or sites like Zynga Poker or even real money video poker sites. We’re specifically referring to the “real money” games offered by the big online poker providers such as 888poker, PokerStars, partypoker and the like. https://didya.life/community/profile/zojpoppy641192/ Tired to search every day for casino bonuses? Tired to see the word “expired” under every promotion? Do you are always looking for new online casinos? We have a solution. Subscribe to our newsletter and receive the latest casino bonuses, codes, exclusive deals, news and reviews directly in your mail. 1 Minimum Deposit Casinos Casino.org is the world’s leading independent online gaming authority, providing trusted online casino news, guides, reviews and information since 1995. Note: You should be aware that not all casinos treat their players fairly. That’s why we recommend reading our casino reviews before registering and using our list of best online casinos when choosing a new site to play at, especially if you intend to deposit your own money into the casino. Most games accept bets starting from $0.10-0.20. Considering you’ve got $1, that is the maximum of 10 spins rounds to play. This sometimes wouldn’t be enough to have at least one winning round. Such experience would hardly seem fun to anyone. Therefore, adding some more funds is a better option.
