Vance Walberg Quotes:

“When I was starting my career, I went and watched a lot of different coaches . . I did that for 15-20 years . . and it was probably the best thing I’ve ever done.”

“Every time you shoot you want three points . . so if I’m taking it to the rack I want to go hard, I want to initiate contact, I want to try to get the and-1 or I’m going to drive, kick out and get the open three.”

“On our scouting report we always check does 5 . . look to take charges? If they do, we know our 5 man is going to get a lot of lobs.”

“That’s what I like about dribble drive – it’s teaching them how to play, it’s not teaching them how to run plays.”

“When you get somebody a triple gap, the advantage is yours . . when you open up a triple gap you make an average player a good player, a good player a great player and a great player unstoppable.”

“What I want my players to understand, is if you catch it standing I expect you to shoot . . I want go-and-catch action not catch-and-go action.”

“The only time I want you to dribble is when you think you can beat your guy. If you can’t, you pass, you cut.”

“The advantage of a 4-out offense is that you have a single post so that you’ve got one side you can really attack . . the advantage of a 3-out offense is that you have bigger gaps.”

“Offensive rebounding for us is real critical. We have a set way that we go to the offensive boards depending on where the ball’s shot – if it’s shot strong side or if it’s shot weakside.”

“When you shoot shots that are close in . . I think height has a lot more to do with the rebound . . but I think when you shoot threes . . it’s a longer shot, longer rebound, I think heart and hustle has a lot more to do with the rebound than height.”

“If you can really drive it, you’ve got to learn how to be able to hit that open three.”

“If you can really shoot it and you can’t drive it . . there’s two options you have: one, obviously is you want to learn how to drive . . but I think good shooters have to learn how to cut.”

“People want instant success with it . . each year, you’re going to see how much better your players are going to get.”

“You like threes, you love lay-ups . . I really want to make sure . . if you’ve got 20 threes up, I expect 40-45 into the rack. . . I think one of the biggest things you’ve got to make sure happens is that you win that free throw battle.”
