- Watch the opponent, not your player. Their movement tells you where the ball or the gap is going to be.
- Use the whole field, court or track. Players who hug one side become predictable.
- Small, steady inputs. Over-steering, over-swinging and over-jumping are the most common mistakes in every sports game.
- Play a full season or tournament rather than single matches; the progression makes each match matter more.
- Because this is a Basketball game, release at the top of the jump.
