What's Wrong With the 2009-2010 Tar Heels?

This is about my favorite college basketball team other than Illinois. WHAT IS WRONG WITH NORTH CAROLINA TAR HEELS?! They need the Tar Heel version of scared straight version. Michael Jordan, James Worthy, Phil Ford are somewhere speechless. Dean Smith, Larry Brown, George Karl are somewhere crying. Vince Carter, Sean May, Rasheed Wallace are somewhere shaking their heads in shame. Eric Montrose and JR Reid should be on the phone cursing Ed Davis out. Ed Cota should be slapping Larry Drew II around for poor point guard play. I wonder during the commercial breaks on NBA TV last night did Eric Snow give Kenny Smith a hard time about the horrible play of North Carolina this year? The only thing Kenny Smith could say in his defense is talk about the NCAA 2009 Title game in Detroit.

Last night against Florida State in the Dean Dome, plenty of seats were available and then the Tar Heels layed an egg against Florida State. AMAZING! When they play Duke on senior night, I hope they at least make it a game.

The traditional Tar Heel route is the McDonald's All-American game, shine on ESPN and the NCAA tournament, be seeded #1, nothing less than a Final 4 trip, then go lottery. This system has worked from Dean Smith to Roy Williams. The swagger, the heart, the cockiness, the killer UNC instinct has not been there and they also lost to Duke for the first time since 2007.

As Brendon Haywood cries to bed in his new Dallas condo, I hope Harrison Barnes can lead the Tar Heels back to the #1 spot they belong. The NIT is not expected!

Vertical Jumping Program Makes the Difference to Improve Your Vert

Are you looking for a vertical jumping program to increase your vertical leap and become explosive? Do you play basketball, volleyball, football, or track and want to get ahead of your competition with a vertical leap exercise workout program? A vertical jumping program is the best way to improve your overall performance and gain that competitive advantage. Your vertical jump, or "vert", is measured by standing on a flat surface and raising your hand straight up while flat footed, then jumping as high as you can. This difference is your vertical leap, or vertical jump. There are some very specific exercises that when done properly will unlock your maximum vertical leap. I will discuss some of the basic ways to increase your vertical leap, and give you other critical insights.

You always want to start your vertical leap workout by properly warming up. All you really want to do is increase blood flow to the large muscle groups in your legs, calves, and back to avoid damaging these muscles. If not properly warmed up these muscles could tear during your vertical jump exercise program. Some of the most effective low impact stretches are deep knee bend lunges, high knee skips, backwards run, and a carioca side shuffle. Low impact exercises for an explosive vertical leap include jump rope, running stairs or stadium steps, and sprinting on your toes. Try doing sets ten with these exercises to help improve your vertical jump.

Plyometrics, often called "plyos", are also a common way to increase vertical leap. Plyometrics are any exercise where the muscle is stretched before it is immediately contracted. A good example of this is push-ups with a clap in-between each push-up. There are numerous plyometric exercises to increase vertical leap, some are better than others. All of them use your body weight to load the muscle before contraction. The "two foot ankle hop" is done by keeping your feet together and hopping up and down while only using your ankles and calves. Focus on getting as high as possible and exploding off of the ground when you land. "Rim jumps" are done while standing under a basketball hoop. Jump up and down and touch as high as you can (rim or net) while alternating hands. Again, concentrate on getting as high as possible and exploding back up when you hit the ground. The last plyo to consider is "box to box jumps". With these two boxes that can support your weight are placed about three feet apart. Standing on top of one box step off to the ground and immediately jump back up to the opposite box. Turn around and repeat the exercise. Do not jump off the box but simply walk off. When done properly, plyometric exercises should be a vital component of your program to increase your vertical leap.

Weight training is also a vital part of efforts to increase your vertical leap. When done properly you can see dramatic improvements in your vertical jump. Two of the most common weight training exercises for this are the "power leg press" and "dead lifts" With power leg presses you will add weight to a leg press machine until you feel a steady resistance. Put your feet apart and high on the press plate, then bring it down slowly until your knees are even with your chest. Then push the plate out with an explosive movement, and do not go slow. Try to find a weight where you can barely do 3 sets of 8 repetitions. With dead lifts we will work the lower back as well as the legs. Place a bell on the ground and stand over it. Then lower your body down and hold the bar, arching your back and keeping your knees bent. Now raise yourself up using your legs, then lower the bar back down. Find a weight where you can just barely do 3 sets of 6 reps steady but fast.

Six Skills All Stars Master

Have you ever noticed that some ballers seem to shine compared to other ballers? There are some special, dominate Hoopers that just seem to separate themselves from the rest of the Pack. Are You one of them? Do fans come to watch YOU Play? Or do they come to see one of your teammates? I just received an email from one of my special ballers that bought by Go Basketball PRO System and he had a very basic Question? Rali, what are the most Essential Skills All Star Ballers Master?

And here is the answer...

Skill # 1

All star ballers are different then most, Some are small, big, fast, slow, but when I say different, I mean they have mastered what the rest of the ballers have not. This is one of the most crucial steps you MUST take in order to dominate the court. Goal Setting. I know it sounds basic, but believe me, its more effective then you think. Think about it for one second, how are you going to achieve something you do not have a goal for? When you set your goal, you have a Reason for playing, a reason for practicing, a reason for being. You have to know exactly what you want to accomplish, NO if and, or buts.

Skill # 2 Defining a niche!

This is by far the most over looked aspect in basketball. A niche is what you do best, it is the one thing that you do great, the thing that separates you form the baller next to you. The One thing you can provide the team, and what the coach can count on you for. Without a Niche, you have no identity on the court. If you look at all the Kings in the NBA, you will easily discover their Niche.

Steve Nash- passing

Ben Wallace- Rebounding

Dwayne Wade- attacking the basket

Mike Miller- Shooting

Kobe - Scoring

And the list goes on....

Find a Niche and spend as much time Working and Improving It as MUCH as possible.

Skill # 3

Staying as low as possible. Basketball is a sport that should always be played from low to high, not high to Low. The Lower you are, the faster, stronger, more balanced you will be. When you drive past someone on offense, you want to focus on getting your shoulder to where the defenders hips are. That is how low you should be on all you drives. There are certain things that separate the Wannabee Ballers form the All-Star Studs that get all the fame and Publicity. And make no mistake about it, theses are the keys to unlocking your true potential. Here are the other Crucial 3 keys All-Star Ballers Master

Skill # 4 Practicing Less But accomplishing more!

Yes, All-Star ballers leverage their time effectively and get more accomplished in less amount of time. How do you do that? Easy! You incorporate Basketball Circuits into your workouts. Most unsuccessful ballers do the traditional work on 1 or 2 things each practice, like spending 45 minutes to a hour working on their jump shot. And then spending the last 15 minutes on defense or conditioning. It would be far more effective if you had a circuit of exercise ranging anywhere from 4 to 8 different exercises in each circuit. These exercise would be called stations and you would spend a certain amount of time at each station and then rotate to the next station. From what I have found, 30 seconds is plenty of time to spend at each station, and then you would allow your self 15 to 30 seconds of rest in between each station before moving on to the next station. Just pick your top 6 drills that you love to do and incorporate them into a circuit and watch as time fly's by and you get so much more done.

Skill # 5

Mastering the Art of marketing and exposure. There is nothing lucky about it. The Reason why that baller is on T.V. and your not is because he knows how to market himself correctly to get as much exposure as he needs. Look, it's very simple:The best basketball player in the world is nothing unless people, and I mean the right people know of him. How many ballers do you think are out there that have the talent to play in the NBA, but are not there? I know of at least 50 of them. Learn how to market yourself to teams, coaches, schools and organizations as soon and as early as possible and watch how fast an avalanche of Scholarships and Contacts will fill your mailbox.

Skill # 6

Doing what's Uncomfortable. Yep, That is right, doing the uncomfortable. All-Stars ballers have formed the habit of doing things they do not like to do. Let me explain. Everyone is Natural inclination, including All-Stars, is to be lazy and only do things that are comfortable. Here is an example. I do not know about you, but when I played, I use to hate doing things that would improve my defense. Like Defensive slides, holding my defensive stance and other drills that would make my legs feel like logs. But just because I did not want to do them does not mean I would not do it. I try to form the habit of doing all the things I did not want to do, but if I did, it would make me a better person, and a better baller. Everyday think of the one things that you do not want to do, but if you did, it would make your life better, on and off the court. Master these 6 skills and I guarantee you your competition will be sorry.
