  • Looking for a job!

    I'm looking for a new basketball job or assignment for this up-coming season 09-10. After one year as a full-time working coach at Sanda Basketball Gymnasium and National Team assignments I'm looking for new challenges both in Sweden and outside of Sweden. I'm interested to hear about any type of suggestions and ideas.

    Go to ‘Contact’ for my contact information or read my resumé under 'David Leman'.

  • Letar nytt jobb!

    Jag letar nytt jobb inom basket för den kommande säsongen 09-10. Efter ett år på Sanda Riksbasketgymnasium och en vår och summar full av landslagsuppdrag med HU18 är jag nu redo för nya utmaningar. Jag befinner mig för närvarande i Stockholm men söker jobb över hela landet och även utomlands.

    Jag är intresserad av att höra på alla olika typer av möjligheter, såväl basketjobb på heltid som möjligheter med att kombinera med annat jobb. Såväl uppdrag med lag på eller nära elitnivå som uppdrag där man vänder sig mer mot skola och inspiration av barn och ungdomar att börja spela basket.

    Till alla er ute i landet och i olika klubbar vill jag bara meddela att det finns möjlighet att komma ut och hålla träningar, föreläsningar/clinics hos era lag och klubbar. Dessutom kommer jag gå utbildarutbildningen nästa helg där jag därefter komma kunna hålla grundkurs och Steg 1 enligt nya utbildningssystemet.

    Ni hittar min kontaktinformation och mitt CV uppe i menyraden under "Contact' respektive 'David Leman'.

A dig in the archive!

I often think about new subjects to write about on my page, but sometimes I glance back and read through what I have published before. Through my blog stats I can see that some of the articles are frequently read so I thought about posting the links to the most popular articles in one post. Enjoy!

Inside is important
Inside is like the most important street in the game of Monopoly, you really want to be in control of it, and you definitely don’t want your opponent be in control!

What basketball skills takes a player to the next level? Part 1: The shot
I believe that this skill is the most important one of the offensive skills a player can master. Maybe the shot is not the most important when you are on a certain level but when trying to reach the next level when physique and speed becomes more significant a player without the skill of shooting is way more easy to break down.

What basketball skills takes a player to the next level? Part 2: The defense
Is this just something coaches say to make players work on their defense because a  lot of coaches like defense? I would say that the main reason defense is important is that a player who moves up has first to adapt to the speed in the practise and the new group and at the same time to stay on the floor.

Modern day basketball
The game is much faster and everyone on a team needs to be able to run and move. As the game has become faster the reaction time and the time for decision-making has decreased. This is why in modern day basketball you very seldom see fakes anymore. There is simply no time to make fakes, either you are open to take the shot or you have to drive to the basket or to find the next pass. The modern players read situations before they occur and react in a flow.
