During one of Kevin Eastman’s presentations, he spoke about game changers, what they were, and there affect on the game.  Here are four game changers that I picked up from Kevin Eastman.  This may seem simple and trivial but these are the little things that make a big difference in the game. 

1.   50/50 Game

  • Long rebounds, loose balls, etc. We need to control 75% of them.

2.   Be the first to the floor.

3.   Charges

  • One per quarter.

4.   Deflections

  • 24 in a 32 minute game.

The more you go after, the more you get.
