Coach Howard should not get any dislikes. His content provides the type of information every basketball player need to get better. Even though it's only 27, he doesn't deserve that disrespect
Jhon Apple People see notifications and then dislike. But I don't think coach Howard cares about the dislikes, he cares about helping us out. He's a coach. Keep it up coach Howard
Since I'm 5'9 and 13 years old, it's been hard for me to get on the next level of talent. But ever since I found your channel, my friends have been saying that I could be the best shooting guard in the school. My handles are the one of the best in school. And my defense is vicious.I've become a mini Russell Westbrook ( I can't shoot very well.)My mid-range shot is wet though.And I'm very efficient with my layups and I can finish with my left hand. I've watched your videos on shooting and they've helped. All I have to do is find a comfortable shot. If you haven't already done it, then can you make a video on how to get your hops up? I can already touch the rim but I can't dunk. Thanks Coach! -Malakai
The Homie Yosh you'll grow, I was that when I was your age maybe smaller and I'm 16 and 6'1. Michael Jordan was 5'10 in his sophomore year and grew to 6'6 so don't worry about height, it will come just worry on becoming better, eating healthy and sleeping you will grow
Simple stuff that you can take 1-2 hours of your time doing. I did this on a consistent basis and my dribbling became 100x better. No need to pay $$$ for professional trainers.
Howard Elite Basketball hey Howard i started playing basketbal recently and i have to dat that my handles aren't that great. But that's not the problem, the problem is that my balls always slips out of my hand when i'm dribbling. And it doesn't slips out of my hands from the beginning, but like after the fourt rep. Oh yeah and i also dribble with an old ball the grip is a little bit of. Do you have a solution for this or an explanation why this is happening? (people from the comment section are also free to answer this😀) Could it be possible that it has something to do with my hands? Greetings from Belgium
Coach thank you so much last year as a freshman I played bench just about the whole year because I could not handle the ball as well then when I started watching your videos I started getting better now I'm starting JV is a sophomore
Find a person, pass back and forth, pass for assists, pass for layups, etc. If you don't have anyone to pass to, pass into a wall using bounce passes and normal passes, chest and overhead.
This has made me a heck of a lot stronger and better dribbler. All All thanks to you man. Being 6'2, I play post and down low. now that I've gotten better at my dribbling, I can show coach that I can also play guard. Thanks man.
I didn't make my basketball team this year so im going to show coach who is boss.I almost made it but was not there.Thank you for telling me these so I can practice!
Something else to help you have more control of the ball is to deflate it a bit more than it should be. This is so you push your arm harder when you dribble and it is harder to grip the ball. You can deflate the ball and bit and add two bags and practice dribbling like that often. As soon as you play a serious game with a air-filled ball with a good leather/rubber/etc grip, you will NOT lose control of the ball whatsoever ever. Before you play the game with the new bouncy (grippy) ball your not used to, you should dribble that ball and get used to it as your arms and body are used to pushing harder, you can move your arms more swiftly and quickly past your defenders.Take it from Kyrie. Nah but forreal, This is the best way to improve your dribbling instead of just remembering to pound the ball hard because in order to dribble with the deflated ball, you literally HAVE to bounce the ball hard to be able to even move with the ball because of how deflated the ball is, without enough power the ball will stop bouncing and you will have to pick it up, and restart. This is also better because you can bring this ball thats deflated and the two bags on it with you and your friends to all practice their dribbling just by playing a 1v1/2v2/3v3 etc. This is also better because you can just play normally and casually as you usually do-just with a deflated-bagged ball. Thank me in a month when you dribble at least two times better!
Thanks a bunch, I did this for a week and even though I'm 6'1'' on my middle school basketball team i scored 12 more points just from dribbling and I play center! I usually don't get the ball out of the paint but our point guard traveled and I knew I had to step it up. When I got the ball I usually just pass to a guard but this game I was dribbling like a guard and finishing at the rim. Love your channel btw, keep doing what you do, it helps.
I recommend Spalding. They are a really good brand. I particularly recommend the Spalding tf-500 as it is a great all round ball and is not too expensive. I just got myself one and it is just amazing.
This is my favorite video of yours. I think it will develop strong arm, and skilled ball control. I watched this with my newbie 8 year old basketball player. Go #25!!!
This may be a little late but, I blew my knee out of socket and lost every bit of game I had I eventually got most of it back but I've been doing this workout everyday for about a week now and now I have my handles back to where they were when I had my scholarships the first time. Thank you for this video it helped out a lot coach I appreciate it
Defense: Know when your man is faking and when he's actually driving. Try not to react to his dribble moves. If he does pass you up, just call for help D. I'm assuming you're a guard or something.
hey Coach Howard! Next year Is the big year. I'll finally be able to try out for basketball. Basketball is my dream these videos are so amazing and helpful I just wanted to say thanks.
WOW!!!! Dang, thank you so much, finally some actual help. I've been needing to improve my dribbling and shooting. I watched your shooting videos and they helped A TON. THANK YOU
Great video to keep it simple and concise I recently moved to Brazil and I started coaching the kids i look at your videos to refresh my techniques especially for the little guys I always coached 12 to 16 and now I'm starting with the 6 to 10 so very instructive for little guys appreciate your videos it very much
Thanks coach for the basketball fundamentals how to dribble the basketball please post more basketball fundamentals on how to become a better shooter and a better dribbler thanks
Try dribbling moves with your eyes closed. You then have to do it by feel alone. You don't need to see the ball to dribble it. Also, avoid dribbling the ball too lightly, that is when you lose control of it. You need to keep your eyes up on the defender to "read" when you should do next: shoot, fake a shot, drive, fake a drive right and go left, etc.
This is truly the best way I watched a guy actually dribbling the ball for hours to get good at it but I could do these practices anywhere even I’m my house
You should make a video of what sticks out to basketball coaches during tryouts. I know you made a video on how to make the basketball team. But make one that tells what's coaches look for in general
@howardelitebasket I love your videos. It's simple and practical. However, it would be helpful if you have a summary of the drills or principles after every video. That way It can be quickly reviewed and practiced.
thank you coach howard i can tell and my coaches can tell i'm improving thanks again for the tips just a suggestion i think you should make a video about passing
My high school coach was giving us these heavy balls for all drills! This was helping cuz after the heavy ball we were playing with normal balls and it was feeling easier... It was strange... It was like we were playing foam balls or something... But shooting was a problem cuz we were over throwing balls
Best coach going easy to u derstand really effective. Man just started basketball like 2 months ago and man this really helped. Thanks coach I appreciate ur videos
Hey and thanks so much for making this video it was really helpful, can you do a video on all the rules you need to know in a basketball game and how to make the team ( tryout guide)? Thank you so much for the videos!
Thank you so much for this video! It was my New Years resolution to become a better ball handler, and this is a great start for me. Also, could you do a video on workouts for staying in fit? Thanks again!!!
This guy is a genius and a innovator, really inspiring me to become a great basketball player in my high school team
I mean Caoch, not guy 🏀⛹
Brian Duarte I'm in 8th grade and working on becoming a better player too !
Coach*
Brian Duarte kyrie Irving started this plastic bag dribbling fyi
MRIONLYMATTER I was just about t to say That😂
Coach Howard should not get any dislikes. His content provides the type of information every basketball player need to get better. Even though it's only 27, he doesn't deserve that disrespect
Jhon Apple it's literally people who have accounts just the click the dislike button as much as they can. Nothing u can do about it
Jhon Apple People see notifications and then dislike. But I don't think coach Howard cares about the dislikes, he cares about helping us out. He's a coach. Keep it up coach Howard
Jhon Apple I don't get those people... there is always a dislike. If you don't like the vid, leave
I know right
Jhon Apple juice and I u ydudflu 4$57
Kyrie used to do the basketball in the plastic bag thing when he was little.
Sikh_Killcams5 that's were it started
Started with Baron Davis actually, or rather, he was known for it before Kyrie.
Sikh_Killcams5 Kyrie is a boss at cross overs.
yeah

Hey man I'm really trying to become a better passer. Can you make a video on becoming a better passer.
Kuroko?
+Levi Ackerman LOL that's what I thought
just pass the ball it is easy the more you pass the better your iq will get.
c4rtoonf4n4t1c just look on your surroundings. and practice your passes on walls. It helped me be a better passer
Find a person, pass back and forth, pass for assists, pass for layups, etc.
If you don't have anyone to pass to, pass into a wall using bounce passes and normal passes, chest and overhead.
This gone make everyone better who just watched this
This is probably the best lesson ive seen on youtube, subbed.
Thanks bro appreciate it. Keep grinding

XXX when I dribble I like to have something to look at in front of me to watch to keep my eyes off the ball
Try dribbling moves with your eyes closed. You then have to do it by feel alone. You don't need to see the ball to dribble it. Also, avoid dribbling the ball too lightly, that is when you lose control of it.
