I am attempting to cover everything you might need in a pinch: Missing a free throw on purpose, Foul or not to preserve a 3 point lead, When to put a player back in the game with fouls--there are 130 in all. If there is anything you would like to see in the book, please let me know what it is by replying to this e-mail. I will add as many suggestions as I can--either by taking some of mine out to stick with the 130 Ideas theme or add a new section. I will respond to every suggestion, before the book is completed. ******************************************* QUOTE OF THE DAY ******************************************* Good coaching may be defined as the development of character, personality and habits of players, plus the teaching of fundamentals and team play.
