  Speaker 1: We're back with Dan Hurley. Do you con men's basketball
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: coaches show? Mike Chrispino with you, coach, want to talk
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: to you a little bit about prep game prep. You
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: have a couple of days between games. How do you
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: start with the film study or the videotape of previous
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: games and your opponent? Do you have someone breaking it
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: down for you? And then do you say, well, we're
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: going to focus on this when we get together with
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: the team. What is that process like, because obviously it's
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: such an important part of getting ready for every game.
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, so I'd imagine Luke and these guys,
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: you know, Luke Kamani now Mike, you know, are probably
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: consuming you know, seven eight games, you know, and then
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: you know, but the scouts are split now a third
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: of the you know, a third for each so you know,
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: for so for these guys, for the most part, they'll
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: be responsible for a scout and then you know, they'll
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: unless they just have bad luck with the way the
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: schedule falls and conference play, you know, they'll probably have
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: ten days two weeks before their next one, or at
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: least a week. You know. So for me, I'm comfortable
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: watching five, you know, for me, I like to be
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: able to watch five of the games of our opponent,
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: and then I want to see if it's someone in league,
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: I like to watch, uh just all the clips of
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: how they've guarded us defensively in the prior year, just
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: what their game plan was reguarding off ball things or
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: ball screen defense or different different things that they did.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: So for me, it's five games and then and then
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: the way that that team guarded us if we've played
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: them in the past. Because for me, it's different. You
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: know that the you know, I've got every scout, you know,
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: you know, Kamani and Luke and Mike, they've got their
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: scout and then obviously they don't go on vacation in between. Yeah,
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: because their position coaches and they're invested and they're looking
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: to assist whoever has the scout. You know, they're very
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: aware of the opponent as well. But yeah, I mean
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: it's it's when you've got when you play, and then
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: you've got uh, you know, say you play a game,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: you we've got to do our self correcting edit of
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: the game that we just played. And then that next morning,
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: you know, you're basically glued to the tablet you're watching
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: it while you're riding the peloton bike. You're watching it,
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: while you're in the sauna, You're watching it while you're
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: walking around the building. You basically have your iPad like
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: the kids these days, but only I'm not on social
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: media watching TikTok. I'm watching you know, I'm watching game field.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: That's a good idea. You start watching TikTok, you can't stop.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: I I'm guilty of it once in a while myself.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Now when you get in a session with the players,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: that's my next question. Uh, now you were I think
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: you you taught history, didn't you? A Saint Benedict's if
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: I remember right?
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: All right, So you have you have some experience in
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: keeping guys attention in a classroom, which isn't always easy.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Now you got them in a in a film room
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: and you're talking about things. How do you keep guys attention?
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: How do you make sure that it's absorbed what you're
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: talking about and what you're showing them on tape?
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Well, no, what if they don't love the game? I mean,
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: if they're in this for clicks or you know, for
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: the ni L bag. You know there's you know, you
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: could stand on your head while holding your breath. And
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: it's not going to matter if you don't have people
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: that love the game and are truly here to experience
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: championship level success and glory and to become the best
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: player they can be. I mean, it doesn't matter what
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: you're doing up there. So and for you know, I'd say,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: for me, it's like when you're when you teach. You know,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: when you're a high school teacher and a coach, you
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: know how to control a huddle, you know how to
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: control a classroom. You know how to keep people's attention.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: You know how to change the inflection of your voice
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: or or or or the different mannerisms to keep people's
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: tension and and and speak with energy. And obviously I'm
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: not very monotone with the way that I communicate, so uh.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: And then splicing in different clips, either you know, to
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: to you know, humor or or or to make a point,
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: a strong point with a movie clip you know, or
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: or or a picture of a player or a moment
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: in history it you know, sometimes just splash those in
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: to keep them guessing as to what's gonna pop on
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: the screen next. Is it just going to be a
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: basketball clip, or is it going to be the old
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: cartoon of mister Magoo, uh for thirty seconds, because we've
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: got players that are playing looking like they have no awareness.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: They're almost like they can't see it. So yeah, I
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: mean they're now they look at mister Magoo and like,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: look at this cartoon that this old hater is showing us.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: But you know it's uh, you know, it gets the
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: reaction I want keeps them in game.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: Okay, So Butler, the other night, the opening five minutes
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: were kind of ugly. They look like they came in
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: ready to roll, and they played well in the first
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: eight or ten minutes. Tell me about the first tundle
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: what happened there, because I think the crowd was kind
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: of stunned. He fell behind nine to two, eleven four whatever.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: They were running up and down the court doing whatever
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: they wanted to. What did you do to reverse that trend?
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: I mean it was not how you want to start. Yeah,
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: it's not how you want to start the big E season,
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: especially when you put yourself in such a good spot.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: So yeah, just to start the game executing what we wanted,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: getting the lob dunk and then giving up a dunk
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: at the other end on a mad dunk I mean,
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: it just tells you that the group is not ready
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: to play. You know, I'm tough on the players privately
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: from a practice standpoint, but publicly, I'm very protective of
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: the players, and I think sometimes to a fault, I
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: let them play through things because I'm soaking learned about
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: their confidence and not embarrassing them or just hurting their
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: their self belief. So I probably should have gotten three
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: or four of those starters off the court within the
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: first minute or two. The turnovers, the lack of a
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: defensive effort, the lack of the urgency that you need.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: So yeah, that's probably one of my faults as a coach.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: That is you know, is that is that in those
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: type of settings, I'll let a player play too long
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: rather than pull them too early. There's no perfect coach.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Nope, that's for sure. All right, Dan, stick with us.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Got another segment. We're in talking with some big East
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: what's going on. Your alma Mater's off the pretty good start.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: Their Seaton Hall Pirates doing some nice things among others.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: We'll be back more of the Yukon Men's Basketball Coaches Show.
• 6:48
