Most players don’t need 20+ fancy finishes—they need to learn how to read defensive problems and let the right solutions emerge. In this episode, Mike Carlson and Mark Cascio break down the biggest mistakes coaches make when teaching finishing at the rim, how to train real decision-making through live play, and why simplifying your players' choices will dramatically improve their scoring efficiency.
