5 out of 5 stars So good, we had to buy!!!   September 11, 2007
The point guard college was recommended by my daughter's high school basketball coach. At hundreds of dollars for one week of camp, I decided to read the founder's book and see if the camp would be worth the cost. After getting the book from the library, I realized that we NEED to OWN this book and also will be putting her in the point guard college. Division 1 colleges----look out for this midwest farm girl!!!


5 out of 5 stars The best basketball book ever written   January 8, 2006

A must read and re-read for any hoopster. Devenzio was not only an incredible player and coach, but a very wise man. I had the privilege of knowing him and hope that his legend lives on. All of his other books are wonderful as well. If you want the live version, you should attend Point Guard College: www.pointguardcollege.com

Many of the items in the book are secret weapons, unknown to most players. Most of the items will give a player an advantage against other players. Excellent book.


5 out of 5 stars Best basketball instructional book ever   December 9, 2004
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I bought this book back in the early 80s when I was a wannabe player, and kept it through the years. Now my daughter is a middle school player & loves the book. It is simply the best basketball instructional book I have ever seen. It is truly sad that Dick Devenzio died so young.


5 out of 5 stars God is in the details!   November 19, 2002

Just as legendary UCLA basketball coach John Wooden described himself simply as a "teacher", so should Dick Devenzio. Over the last ten to fifteen years, the game of basketball has changed a great deal and not for the better. Yes, players today are bigger, stronger, quicker and more athletic then their counterparts of yesteryear but therein lies the problem. Today's players depend too heavily on their athleticism and consequently have never learned (or been taught!) the skills or developed the basketball I.Q. needed to reach their full potential. Devenzio's book is a powerfull vaccine against this disease whch has been looming around the hardwood for far too long. If you are a player or a coach at any level, this is a must read. A+
