Andre Miller: The results of personal coaching training cannot be converted on the court. It is better to play 5-on-5 actual battles

September 14 News Recently, former NBA player Andre Miller talked about the views of NBA players generally hiring personal coaches on the show "All The Smoke".

Miller said: "For me, the training results of personal coaches cannot be transformed on the field. Of course, we can see that the players have practiced a lot of moves in private training, which is no problem. But no matter how cool this personal training is, I still believe in the old-school way. It’s better to find a place to play a 5-on-5 game, find a gym to play a few games, and be used to polishing your skills in team confrontation. I will never spend money to ask someone to teach me what moves to do. "

"And in the Development League, if you tell players to 'go to the bottom corner to shoot three-pointers, 'do good defense, 'rush to grab rebounds', they will say you have limited their performance. I have also received calls from management or agents asking them to give their players more ball rights. But seriously, even in the NBA, these players will not get more ball rights. The best situation is to be a role player, otherwise you can only sit at the end of the bench to applaud. If you want to stand out and get an opportunity, the only way is to play with all your strength."

Since 2022, Miller has been the head coach of the Grand Rapids Gold Team of the Nuggets G League team.
