Book Description
Complete Multiple System of Basketball Defense. A basketball guide that teaches the skills you need to lead your team to victory by showing your defensive squad how to stop today's best offensive patterns.

Says Al McGuire, CBS: "Cincinnati is really well coached. (They play the)Amoeba Defense...their defense is their offense."

Says Curry Kirkpatrick of Sports Illustrated: (The Amoeba is a)..."Marvelous junto of a defense..."

Says Philadelphia Inquirer: "Opposing guards bringing up the ball yelled 'man' but the guys along the baseline were shouting 'zone'..." CREATE YOUR OWN DEFENSE USING AMOEBA FUNDAMENTALS Once you've mastered Amoeba principles, you can:

Dust off that old favorite defense and add Amoeba techniques.

Start in any defensive formation - then slide into the Amoeba.

Add Amoeba options to any successful defense to give it new effectiveness.

AMOEBA FUNDAMENTALS CAN BE ADAPTED TO ANY ZONE OR MAN-TO-MAN DEFENSE

5 out of 5 stars Webster--Simple & ingenius   October 11, 2000
 2 out of 4 found this review helpful

It is very rare to see such insight preserved and distributed. I applaud the publisher for keeping Webster's theories and work alive.


4 out of 5 stars Loaded with drills, well illustrated, superior coach's guide   August 12, 1999
 6 out of 6 found this review helpful

This is the best kep secret of coaches around the nation - and in Europe, too. As the first and best guide to combination - zone and man-to-man - defensive systems, the drills alone, if put to use, tend to improve a player's defensive skill. It's a good total system, too. It's complicated at times, but the book covers all the bases. This material really can be used all levels of the game. No padding.
