    Hi

  17. thanks for asking. my status: http://dreallday.com/?p=3714

  18. Hey Dre!
    I am a 13 year old inspiring basketball player…I was just wondering were you play professional bball? Like do you play in the NBA or something? or is it like a D LEAUGE NBA team ?

  19. this website you’re on right now? Read it.

  20. What’s up my man.. I just came across your videos and I must say, one baller to another, you got it brotha.. You most def have the skills to be in the NBA.. Keep up the hard work and it will all pay off.. But of course, you already know that.. I have been trying to perfect this move an ex college ball player gets me with all the time.. He has a deadly jumper so I must respect his jumpshot but he also has great handles so I gotta respect that too. He knows I respect his jumper a little more than his drive because I have a bigger upper body than he does so its hard for him to drive on me. So he does this slight-of-hand move that appears like he is about to shoot the ball. It gets me off my feet about 40% of the time. Its like he is dribbling with one hand, then brings the other hand towards the basketball like he is about to shoot it but doesn’t. Instead, he keeps his dribble and goes towards the basket.. Can you make a video of that move..? Thanks and once again good luck..

  21. what up Will. got ur email, it’s coming in due time!

  22. Rachel Jan 5th 2010

  36. What’s your take on sportphsychology are you in to it? I thaught I would share this with you: What better my game the most with the least amount of effort was a book called the mental edge you probably get it at amazon. Just by reading it, and I am not kiding you, I improved my FT shooting in doubledigits, my decision making and thus my assist/turnover ratios and fg percentage, basically everything. It is all mental, so check out this or any similar book on sport phsychology.

    I read the book during injury, as I wanted to improve my game during the time off, I first heard about how sports physchology could improve your game after reading two Iverson biographies, in which it was mentioned that Iverson was introduced to certain mental techniques to improve his game already during HS, by his HS coach.

  37. thanks for the info! yes i know of haifa, and their camp from last summer.maybe one day ill play for that team, maybe not. but thank you either way!

  38. just wondered if you have seen the film coach carter? wat u think of it?

  39. i have. dont remember much about it… im not a movie person.

  40. The Standout Feb 9th 2010

    Dre, I’m 6’1 and I usually play center or powerfoward but i play shooting guard and small foward too. but am I too short to play shooting guard in college? because I am not a point guard. Or will I have to be a point guard if I want to play college ball?

  41. that will be up to you & ur college coach. iverson is smaller than you & play the 2.

  42. The Standout Feb 10th 2010

    true thanks brah! but did u pay a fee to try-out for the d league? and do people actually get picked when they try-out or was it all a scam to take peoples money an dreams away?

  43. the DLeague is the official farm system on the NBA; there are no scams. go to the DLeague website if u need more info

  44. The Standout Feb 10th 2010

    when u tryed out for the dleague did u play against current dleague players? or did u play random basketball hopefuls like urself?

  45. the camp is for players who want to be in the League, but have never been.

  46. The Standout Feb 11th 2010

    nice. how much did u pay to try-out?

  47. anything else u wanna know about the DLeague, go to their website.

  48. are you exited to go in the nba because your going to be rich and all?

  49. TanTan Feb 13th 2010

  59. hey. im on my schools basketball team. now the past 2 years. i averaged 15 a game. and this year. my coach doesnt play me whats so ever, i can play ball really well. i am good. but i dont get my chance to show i can play, except for about 2 minutes a game. while in. the lack of playing time makes it hard to get my confidence and ability to play up so it makes me look like i cant play. but i can. i dont know what to do.

  65. Sergey Mar 7th 2010

    Hi i`m from Russia!(sorry maybe some gramma mistakes up ahead)
    I was playing basketball at school,.The coach was bad he didn`t even teach us how to shoot right. So i had too rely on my own instincts.No one even showed us how its done,how pro`s play. I was best in my class.Was playing some ”school vs school” games wining most of a time.
    But then i found my self in bad company.Started to use alcohol and shi* ,smoked that damn tobacco .After that my young mind could not make right decisions. I think that was the reson why i `ve got my self into a car crash and broke my spine.Then surgey.Doctor`s where amazed that i can move my feet. Then i`ve started my recovery.I was scary skiny after the hospital…
    Two and a half years have past. Now i`m 21 years old.
    I live alone by my self , working hard every day
    to get stronger,so i can not to worry about my back.
    Don`t know why i`m writing this here… just wanna share i guess.
    By the way whats your favorite book? The last one i`ve rad was Miles Davis autobiografi.
    I think you are great player, wish you best of luck!

  66. hey thanks for the comment! thanks for the compliment also. my fav book: http://dreallday.com/?p=2059

  67. Martin Mar 9th 2010

    juss wanna say thanks for all the work you’ve put into your videos bro. I just finishedmy last highschool
    season and im now working hard towards tryouts for college teams. you really inspires me to want to work harder to reach my goal. Ur like the big brother i never had all the workouts, and motivation you’ve given out. ive never seen anyone that puts as much time into playing ball as i do. again thanks for everything man

    Martin

  68. hey thanks for the kind words. i appreciate it. keep me posted on ur progress!

  69. hey dre i got a problem i live in belgium outside i got a b bal goal but i rains here verty often and i cant play in the mud
    love joure site
    joris

  70. you dont have a problem. find a solution or quit

  71. I don’t think I’ve ever met someone who has used basketball to help others this much, not even NBA players. You seem a lot more valuable to me and any one else who plays pro. I live in ft Lauderdale, we play at nova southeastern university. I have a question: How long did it take you to master the art of dribbling the way you have? Where does your work ethic come from? I am a point guard and def wished I had the ball handling skills you have. I’ve managed to play efficiently with a 5’5 115 frame, and no left hand skills at all. I want to take my game up to another level: I envision myself with your ball handling skills, and Nate Robinson’s hops. Great Job on your website.

  72. Andre Sharp Mar 23rd 2010

    Dre, I respect you….but, there may be only one Dre Baldwin, but I’m the senior Dreallday! LOL! All the best!

  73. LOL thanks!

  74. what up dre.i’m 24 and i’m from slovenia.first of all dude i like your confidence cuz the first time i saw you i was hatin on you like this guy is too damn cocky it makes me sick but after watchin your vids i was like,he’s just tryin to make it and he’s workin his ass of and doesn’ give a damn about what the haters and retards are sayin.another thing,i’m comin back from an knee injury that has been bothering me for about 5 years so i couldn’ play 100% and each year the pain got worse so i couldn’ train and i just played pick up games twice a week and everybody was askin me like wtf happened to you, you were one of the best when you were 17-18.about 2 years ago i stoped playing ball,cuz after hearin every day my friends and family tellin me it’s to late for you,you are too old to come back(i was 22 LOL) and cuz ofthe pain in my knee.i wasn’t strong enough mentally so i just snapped and gave up..anyway on the 1st of january i started watchin your vids and had a surgery shortly after that.what i wanna say is dude you inspired me to keep my basketball dreams alive.i know it’s going to be a long hard way back cuz of the rehab and shit but it is totally worth it.i just wanna say dre thank you for opening my eyes and inspiring me and others.dude i really hope you make it.DRE ALL DAY

Lastly kind of off topic haha but what shoes do you find most durable and comfortable ?

  79. OrlandoRuss8 Mar 27th 2010

  80. Travis Mar 27th 2010

    Hey Dre I’m 14 and I play for my jr high basketball team. We just won zone championship and for next year my coach says I should work on my upper body strength. I’m 5’5 and play point/shooting guard. Do you have any specific workouts that could help me? Thanks

  81. Julius Mar 28th 2010

  85. yo man you can play some ball can i get some advice for breaking my man down and first step explosion? thxs!

  86. Ive been watching your videos and my skills have improven but Im still heavy do you have any tips or specicfic excersizes for me to lose weight and get lighter?

  87. BENSON Mar 31st 2010

    Hi dre…

    i’m having a problem on my play style. i usually to be physical who elbows to the opponent and bumping my shoulders to their chest to get myself free from defenders like lebron do. i also do euro steps, spin moves shoulder fakes and a lot more. of course this is basketball. trading elbows trading baskets and trading attitudes. but when i do the bumping that i’ve said earlier, most of the time, i freed my self from the defenders. the problem is that even though im free to finish in the basket, i can’t shoot the ball, sometimes it misses. my hands are accurate because i’m always practicing to shoot, lay-up and anything to improve my acccuracy because i’m an athlete here in the Philippines,here in our school. maybe it’s in my mental attitude that i’m thinking that this ball will not go in. and sometimes I go rattling and sometimes there is an easy way to lay it in but I always go to the wrong and difficult way. i’m having a lack of offensive awareness. can you suggest me a drill to make me a much better player???

  88. cardio.

  89. the drill you need is practice making shots.

  90. what kind of cardio? should I do it before I practice on the basketball court ? should I stretch before or after the cardio? how much cardio should I do(how many times a week and how much time every time I do it)?

  91. BENSON Mar 31st 2010

    thanks dre I’ll try that drills… i hope you will continuously help guys like me who lacks confidence or anything… i hope you fulfill yourself in helping us. you know what fulfillment feels into your nerves like someone thanks you because they became a much better player. At least your efforts in making videos are not wasted because you know someone learned from your tutorials and words you have said. thanks dre. I’ll try your suggestion.

  92. yo,dre ya workouts r hot,I mean they work but I need some more tips,ight. need more excersises 2 dunk ,4real.

  93. should i do cardio be before I practice on the basketball court?

  94. if you want to.

  95. no prob and thank you.

  96. you should speak to a trainer at a gym with those questions; not exactly my expertise area.

  97. Malcolm 09 Apr 2nd 2010

    hey man, ur game is just awesome. ur place is in da nba i hope to see u playing soon

  98. Hi ! I am a beginner for basketball.

    Nice guy!

    My name is Sean.

    Sorry. My Englisg is very poor.
    Thanks your response

  99. OrlandoRuss8 Apr 3rd 2010

    Hey brah, I have a question… I tryed all types of research I think its just my body…. But I cant seem to put on weight in a possitive way I did before but it was all fat, I think I was up to about 230 lbs…I had a really lazy offseason. and Im 6’3″…. now im down to 175 because last summer I worked out every single day to burn that weight…. My only problem now is gaining weight…. I am pretty thin but I eat like a fuckin horse… I seriously need to build up my weight so I could beast fools in the paint get some and1s… I am trying to run ball for a IBL or ABA team locally I just want to get to a good heathy weight so I could handle my own… I am fairly strong but 175 is like paper in these big time leagues… And could you give me a shout out in your next vid..?

  100. thanks you!!

  101. if you’re having weight issues you should speak to a trainer or nutritionist at your gym about your body. and i surely will- whats your name and where are u from?

  102. Jeremy Apr 6th 2010

    heyy, i respect you bro, i know guys in the nba and D-league and dont have what you have, yeah, life doesnt always go the way you like, but i see all the work you put in and how you do not quit for anything. i respect that Dre.in my opinion you are a great player, and dont let any nigga bring you down, i live in IN and my name is jeremy, and im 15 and i play varsity at warren central high school, top 10 ranked schools in the country, and i learn so much from you,you the reason Y i average 20ppg and 13rpg and im a freshman and oh im 6ft 6 to. but you got lots of heart, and i was wonderingg if i could buy some clothes from your website, like dreallday.com shirts or something like that, im behind you 110% goodluck bro, and can you please get back at me with this one!?

  103. hey Jeremy thanks i appreciate the love! and you can get a short here: http://dreallday.com/?page_id=20

  104. Hey Dre,
    First off thank you for all your videos, they have given me a lot of ball handling drills that I do on a daily basis that I haven’t done before playing only power forward and center my whole career. I wanted to know if you feel that getting a agent is the best thing to do coming from a DII University striving to play pro ball overseas. Also, I wanted your opinion on an issue that I have been having for a while. I am not a cocky player but I do have a lot of confidence in myself and my abilities and my issue is how do I improve my game playing against players that aren’t very good but are the only competition around? I don’t like slacking off or not playing hard but I also don’t like busting people’s asses who aren’t that good! I’m not trying to sound like a dick but I don’t want to play down to other peoples levels but I also don’t want to not play at all like I have been doing because I want to improve my game, not just my skills! I’d rather take the chance of losing every game playing against great players then to win games knowing the competition wasn’t very good. Please let me know what you think and thanks again for all the useful videos and your help!

  105. slamwoo93fu Apr 7th 2010

    could you post a vid on how to finish strong i’m working on it and i do good but i can’t get to that level i need to be,i wanna say that i respect your game and hope you’ll be in the nba ass soon as possible…peace ^^

  106. hey thanks for checking out my site. for th most part having an agent cant hurt; they dont get paid until you do so you have nothing to lose. just know that your getting a contract is your responsibility, not theirs. control your destiny. if only weak players are around, then you should go find the good players; they’re out there somewhere.

  107. Visit the website, you should commmission this artist to do a painting of you, he specializes in sports…..

  108. can you make videos on NBA players and their signature moves and show the technique of doing it. for example show a video of Kobe Bryant doing a move and explain the little things of it

  109. do u know any crossovers that i can use people say i use the same moves everytime ( i know the d-william crossover, the killer crosser, the double crossover, the in n out crossover, and the crossover n behind the back)

  110. Nike has already done this, called ‘Signature Moves.’ it is on YouTube

  111. if u have all those moves ur in good shape. the number of moves doesnt matter; what matters is how effective u are as a player, whether with 1 move or 100.

  112. doesnt jumping forward after a jumpshot overpower it?

  113. try it and see.

  114. roberto martinez Apr 15th 2010

    hey dre do you think it is possible to play community college bball if i didn’t play in high school

  115. man you tell me!

  116. thnx dre i did ur drills n my handles got way better. i cross like so many people now its not even funny

  117. Matt Bosin Apr 18th 2010

    Hey, I really want to give you props for being the best you can be. You’ve inspired me to give all I can into my recreational basketball playing, and you seem like a cool guy. I hope I can see you play in the pros someday, ’cause I can really see you breaking into that level.

  118. good to hear!!

  119. thanks a lot i appreciate the support! stay tuned

  120. Ok, I’d like to start off by saying I’m a grade 10 student in a small canadian town. Our players seem to have quite..a height spike In comparison to the states. I’m going into SR ball, sitting at 6 foot and I’m expected to play 2-4. I’ve been playing basketball since my ninth year and can’t excel at the position I’m in. I’m a shooter, and want to make a canadian University team; and try to work my way into a euro-league team. Now, with this said I’m not a GREAT player but I’m a hard worker. I do have talent but I don’t believe if I’m given the opportunities to do damage in the position I’m placed in.

    Now, I can’t fulfill the role I’m needed to on my team, and I’m one of our taller players. I have to be in this situation to play here, and I dont know what I should do. Do you believe I should try to place myself in a better situation, or adapt to the one I’m in ? I’m a smaller guy, and often seen in the weight room trying to gain weight to get something on these other players. I’m dedicated and want to make something happen bad, but I don’t know how.

    Also; There’s a lot of mixed information on the internet but what main muscle groups should I work on to extend my jump shot ?

    Another issue is; being in highschool means there’s not many catch and shoot opportunities for me. As someone who can take contact, but has a good touch how should I get a shot up, without being a “ball hog ” ?

    My appologies, you seem to be an intelligent basketball player and I really need an educated answer to some issues I’m having. ~Thanks

  121. hey David thanks for coming to my site. as far as ur current situation: that is YOUR decision! no one else should be making it for you, it is your life/career. you will figure it out. may not hapen overnight.
    as for the jumpshot question: all of them. you need every muscle for basketball.
    as your coach in which situations he want you to take shots. do what he says and that will increase your playing time/ opportunities.
    neither life nor bball is so easy for another person to just tel you what to do. you have to live and learn on your own, and make decisions for yourself. because you are the one who has to live with the choice and decisions.

    hope that helps!!

    what up dre. 22 years old from cali. well i played basketball since i was little, played for schools and aau teams but for some reason i talked my self into playin football in college cus i told my self it would be easier to make it. but i was young and now i wish i would of played ball cus it made me realize how much i loved it now that i didnt have it. i always made myself depressed when i watch the school b ball team play and i would always hoop them and im like i know i can play with these dudes. so for 2 years i was thinking i couldnt play ball cus i my college clock had started to play sports cus i played football at the same school. i eventually found out in february that i could play ball then in march i ended up pinching a nerve in my back and i been out since… so i just been goin to practices even though i can only sit and wach . but i feeling like im getting a second chance i don’t want to take it for granted and i wanted to find out ways i could make my self better so i typed in ball handling on youtube and your videos popped up. i watch them as much as i can so when im healthy i can get right to the gym. just checked out the site yesterday and what you doin is so sick i congratulate you on your success and trying to help others succeed on and off the court whether or not its b ball… so i just want to say thanks for doin this you seem like a cool dude so i would like to keep in touch through my whole process of gettin back on the court and ill be asking questions and things about work outs and other things. keep working hard man im GOING to see you on espn soon.

  123. dre how many shots you get up a day?

  124. as many as i want.

  125. what up Sean, thanks for sharing. i appreciate you following my YouTube/website. best of success to you!

  126. as many as you want ?? cmon man im tryna see how many shots does a pro get up a day i try to get at least 100 makes a day ball handling drills weights plyos etc etc .. you got a lot of great videos and drills but im tryna figure out how to put it together like wat does your weekly schedule look like?

  127. u gotta figure out for urself how u r gonna work. what works for me will not necessarily work for you. work hard and push yourself every day– you will get better. the number of shots/ hours etc is not as important as it is made out to be in my opinion. And everything i want to share about my workouts are in my vids. the rest is up to you

  128. adam hosseini Apr 23rd 2010

    man, out of all the workouts i have seen u push ur self to the limit. that really inspires me. it shows that if i want to be a nba player i have to work as hard as u do. thanks

    Hey dre, love your site and vids, theyve helped me so much and are so inspiring and keep me working (kinda think im the one keeping us from the big U.K. in the top three in the chart!) I know I can and will make it, but accessibility is the hardest thing for me. Its not hard for me to work hard, and I do whatever I can whether its weights pressups at home or running when not in the gym (not often) But i was just wondering, how do you keep up the funds to continue to get into the gym, have shoes and correct clothing etc. Im not saying i dont understand it, but I just wanna know like what your day job is (apart from basketball o course!)

  159. Johnny Tran May 13th 2010

    sup dre. just wana start off by saying you have by far the most helpful and most complete collection of basketball tutorial vids online period. props, appreciate them.

    why did you choose Air Alert out of all the others out there? Did they sponsor you or give it to you for free, or was it recommended to you by a friend/coach, etc.? did you research or try other methods before finding air alert was best for you?

    ive been lookin into things like FastTwitch, jumpsoles, air alert , etc. and just want your opinion on whats best to start with and ill go from there. obviously everybody responds differently but it never hurts to start with a good program. dont even worry about puttin in work, i got that handled

    lastly, do programs like air alert ever end or are they a lifetime commitment? can you maintain your results just by training/lifting with your normal routine and playin ball, or will you start to lose those extra inches of vertical as soon as you stop doing air alert?

  160. hello Johnny and thank you! DVD coming in the future.
    I chose AA because it was the simplest-looking program i saw and required no equipment to complete. i didnt ask anyone for advice on it, i just did it on my own. this was in the 90s, before i even had a computer/ internet (magazine ad).
    after completing and jumping program, you’ll maintain just by playing your sport regularly. you dont need to do it again to stay jumping higher.

  161. thanks for the response dre, that was very helpful. ill be starting AA next week.
    lookin forward to that dvd too. love your no frills, no bullsh*t approach

  162. thanks a lot!

  163. hey i’ve got a big question. i m currently in New Zealand and i’ve been living here for about 4years. i have started basketball when i was in primary in korea but i wasnt that good. and i came here attending highschool and i started to actually try, you know like join in the teams play after school etc. now i am yr 11 in highschool, i dnt know whether it is the same in US but i got 2 years and few months to attend highschool. i m quite short for my year, 165cm ish but im still growing i think. like typical asian parents, my parents want me to try studing and go to harvord or something but i havent decided it yet.i loooooove basketball, i play every day in school, after school, go to YMCA basketball, joined school team.i also watch stuffs in youtube, NBA stuff, stuffs that you put on, and try to follow some of the tips that those gives me.
    i do air alert 3 to improve my jump, during school days i pracitice 7 to 9 at night. but i am not sure whether this would work. do you thing there is any possibility for me to go to US and successfully join NBA? or should i quit now and start studing…. please reply

  164. what up. what you do with your life is your decision, not mine! if you think you can make it is the only opinion that matter because u are the one who has to live with it. what i think doesn’t matter because i am not you.
    an anything is possible.

  165. sup dre. just started my AA3 workout today got a couple quick questions.

    in your AA3 step-by-step video you did 5 exercises: leapups, calf raises, stepups, thrust ups, and burnouts. in my version of AA3, there’s also an exercise called “squat hops” that wasn’t included in your tutorial. did you leave that exercise out on purpose?
    there’s a lot of recycled opinions out there that AA3 is bad for your knees or some shit, so im wondering if you intentionally left it out for that reason or if its something else.

    lastly, frequency. the AA3 has a specific chart on how many/when to do the program, but you said you can do it as much as you want. when you were doing it, was more always better? or did overtraining eventually set in?

    p.s. for all of you who are too lazy to take the time to search thru the 300 videos, here is dre’s step-by-step AA3 tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtJkMBdgiMc

    watch it. its extremely helpful, especially if your stepups feel awkward

  166. what up.

    thanks for watching the vid. there are no squat hops in the vid b/c they are only done one day per week; the day i recorded the vid wasn’t that one day so no squat hops.

    whether something hurts your knees or not is relative; ie, what hurts me may or may not hurt you. only way to know is to do it, or choose not to.

    i never said AA can be done as much as u want. there is a drill i posted that can be donw daily, which is not part of the AA program (you may have been confused because i used AA in the vid title). AA has a schedule which should be followed.

  167. my bad, i went thru a ton of your vids before i finally found the AA tutorial and must have gotten mixed up along the way.

    not particularly worried about knee problems; just gonna keep doing what im doing and if it hurts ill just stop. i was mostly curious if there was a correlation between knee pain rumors and you leaving out the squat hops in the video, but i get it now.

    thanks dre

  168. are u ganna post more ball handling videos that are longer

  169. I love your videos Dre. You show mad love for the game and unselfishness by showing those who want to be a part of the game.
    I was about to quit basketball after a injury but I noticed how bad I felt. I miss the intensity of the game, laughing with the people in the park, and the excitement of the people watching. I am going to redeem myself this summer. Thank you for the inspiration Dre Baldwin.

  170. im more than happy to help, and thanks for sharing!

  171. Hey man, i’ve watched most of your videos on shooting but everytime i shoot i can’t seem to find a style that suits me :/ the balls always leaning and stuff and i feel like im always palming the ball to shoot. some ppl told me to shoot from the fingertips or something but it ain’t working :/ and i feel really awkward when i shoot. ticks me off cuz everytime i play in a pick up game, they just go zone on me ;( got any advice? thanks man

  172. Hey dre, im a player all the way from Alaska. I really like your play style. I think your’e going to be a great player in the NBA once you get in.

  173. thanks very much!!

  174. peter Jun 2nd 2010

    hey dre wassup! in the past months ive been working up my game to beat my brother one on one cause he just got better and got high hops and all this muscles.. and what im gonna ask you is what is the best move to do when he defends like my arm away from me? and how can i stop a fade away jump shot..thats all..thanks!..btw great videos! very effective! keep it up!..hope to see you on NBA!!..and when that happens please ankle break rajon rondo..lol. well have a good day!

  175. hey thanks for the comment! if u need moves go here:
    http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=357E03161D555F0D

    and a well-executed fade away jumper cannot be blocked. besides that u need to practice more. thanks!

  176. yo Dre, do you think I will ever dunk?
    these are my attempts
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHpRieO5K3Y
    the rim in the video is kinda low though,
    however I have improved to hanging to a 10ft rim and touching my head on the net. could you give me tips please?

    ps,
    I’m Peter’s brother LOL

  177. i dont need to watch ur vid. if YOU think ull dunk u will, simple as that. i have 200+ vids worth of tips posted but here’s a good one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33Ox5S9YuLA&feature=PlayList&p=6271095BA788D7A7&playnext_from=PL&index=0

    and i dont know a Peter.

  178. Ramon Jun 5th 2010

    hey dre, first of all great job with your vids, they’re really making an impact. Do you think you could make a vid on taking charges. My team primarily plays a zone defense and with people driving to the hoop so much it would be great to be able to take a lot of charges

  179. peter Jun 5th 2010

    LAKERS or CELTICS?

  180. hey and thanks! ill make a vid on taking charges when i find a person willing to be the charge-taker as i run him over 10 times in a row for YouTube. lol

  181. im 6ft1 but i can shoot the ball well i want to play shooting guard but because of my height im not sure if i should play point guard.

    any advice?

  182. play whatever position u want.

  183. Hey dre, right now my starting five will proly be the best in our city when were seniors because we always win in AAU. And were all tall. I was wondering how much you work on your ball handling everyday and what do you do so that we can start doing this to be the best. We all have the desire to win a high school championship

  184. work on it as much as you can.

  185. How did you get discovered.like how did ppl start hearingabout you

  186. word of mouth.

  187. gabriel Jun 21st 2010

  189. can u put up a vid about what to do and where to be when u don’t hav the ball? for example when to make good cuts.

    also can u put 1 up for driving in?
    like how much space you need to drive in, or what to do to create that space needed to drive.
    thx

  190. U asked for this already, i may do it and i may not. dont post this question again. in the mean time watch all of these

    http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=357E03161D555F0D

  191. Dre, I watched john wall train with someone that looks like you,
    I gotta ask you this. was that you? he looks exactly like you

  192. na not me.

  193. jwu247 Jun 27th 2010

    - Do you nap during the day? If so, how long?
    - Do you eat fast food, like McDs? =D
    - What do you do in your free time? Party? Video games?
    - What age did you really know when you wanted to go pro?

    I have the dedication, the passion, and a pretty sick ass shot, if I say so myself. But, the only thing that’s stopping me from pursuing a career in the NBA is what if in the end I don’t make it, and all the hard work and time was wasted? What’s your advice?

    “My belief is stronger than you doubt.” – DWade

  195. u need to watch more of my vids in which all of these questions have been answered.

  196. if you think u wont make it, you’re correct.

  207. Justin Wu Jul 1st 2010

    I always see this guy at my court. All I’ve been doing is practicing my fade away shots for two days straight so far, and the guy asks me, “Are you training for a team?” lol and I told him no. If I wouldve told him I was training to go pro, he wouldve thought I was fucking crazy.

  208. nice story.

  209. jwubelieves Jul 2nd 2010

    Kobe’s “666 workout” consists of running, bball, cardio, then lifting for 6 hours a day 6 days a week, as you probably know. So I was wondering what’s your typical workout day consist of? Please tell me so I can form my own similar, but less advanced workout. Thnx Dre. Keep me motivated!!! And you don’t have to tell me how many hours you spend….if you don’t want to.

  210. i have 300+ vids posted; use anything u wanna use from there.

  211. peter Jul 3rd 2010

  216. thanks, glad u like it

  217. Immanuel Jul 6th 2010

    Dear Dre Baldwin,

    I’ve been looking at your videos and blogs for a long time, and i can see you understand what make a player good and what separates them from everyone els, but were i live i have to go out in the sun and shoot, dribble, run, and play by myself. I always see little results. The point is that all this hard work i put in is not making me better. Can you help me understand how hard you really need to work to be the best on your team. im sorry if im not explaining it right but the question is. What level of hard work or trainning do you need to get better than the players on my team. thank you for your help.

  218. TAZZZ Jul 7th 2010

    Hey, I was wondering if you can do a vid on shooting over a taller opponent. Thanks , Great site.

  219. hello. i grew up playing in the sun as well so that should not hold u back. i have over 300 vids posted that provide an example of the work i do. that’s the best thing i can tell you about working.

  220. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vB22Bhpsy94

    if u cant get a jumpshot off u should either drive or pass.

  221. ed leigh Jul 8th 2010

    i dont know where ot post the questions so ill just post them on here. 1 . How do you go about playing in europe 2. have you ever lost faith in yourself 3. If you have an injury should you play through it if your capable of doing so or just let it heal.

    thanks and keep doing what your doing ill meet you in the nba :P

  222. 1. that is too broad a question. play ball, get seen, get signed. there is no one way to do it.
    2. no. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OylkodMOgJ8
    3. a doctor can tell you best on that one.

  223. Man u da best. Just wanted to no what’s happening with you b ball career right now

  224. Mr. G Jul 9th 2010

  228. Ryan Lawrence Jul 9th 2010

    I just bought a weight bench and i was wonderin if u knew any other workouts i could do with a bench besides the bench press

  229. Yo dre are you trying out for the d leauge again ?

  230. search around online. weight workouts are not my specialty.

  231. we’ll see.

  232. Hello sir

    What was the most effective shooting program you ever had?

    thnx

  233. U said in one of your vids that you most likley will go over seas and play. What team will you play for and will u be a starter ?

  234. you’ll see when it happens.

  235. For you whats the most effective speed and accuracy training you ever did.

  236. everything i do.

  237. jwubelieves Jul 12th 2010

    If it’s raining out and the indoor gyms are closed to summer camps, would you take the day off?

  238. jwubelieves Jul 12th 2010

    Can you make a video of you playing against Wes? lol

  239. i dont know, thats not my situation. make decisions for urself

  240. i have already but YouTube removed it. maybe ill repost in the future

  241. Do they pay a lot to ball overseas meaning do they pay more than the D-League? And my second question be if someone like me wants to get to the NBA, do you know which league the NBA looks at more? (the D-League or overseas leagues)? thanks for your time.

  242. depends on your situation. and NBA scouts scout everywhere in the world.

  243. Dre you ever tried playing with one of those Power Balance hologram bracelets?

    Personally it looks like bullshit or a placebo at best to me, but i was just curious if you had any thoughts on it cuz its poppin up ALL over the gym/courts now so maybe theres a reason afterall

  244. Jason From Taiwan Jul 15th 2010

    Hi , i’m taiwanese .I always drill in dribble just like your video on Youtube.After i watch your conversations on video,i think u probably are a nice guy.
    我常看NBA或是streetbasketball比較兩者之差異
    抑或從中學習球員的技巧 但我通常都自己在練習
    我想我應該多參加實戰 但真正實戰自己練的東西卻又大多無法發揮
    看了你的影片後希望我能夠多琢磨多學習改進

  245. no.

  246. thanks.

  247. Justin Jul 16th 2010

    I have to make a confession. I’ve been working on my game all week, but I just got my ass handed to me 11-2 today. SMFH. Kinda makes me wana give up. I guess I didn’t work hard enough. Wake up call for me.

  248. Justin Jul 16th 2010

    Did you learn all your drills/moves by yourself or did you have professional help? And what age did you start getting professional help if you did? Thnx Dre.
    Ps I won’t give up unless you do.

  249. 98% of my on-court training is completely solo. and if i work with someone, it’s not “help.” i help myself. it’s guidance, learning new things.

  250. gabriel from orlando Jul 16th 2010

    dre these videos are realli helpful but it only helps if you work your ass off on your game too right?btw with your guidance i put up 10 pts 4 rebs and 2assts thoe we lost i wanna thank you alot am gonna keep spreding the word about you to my friends man and am gonna keep working hard ,thanx!

  251. thanks a lot; glad i could help!

  252. shawn michaels Jul 18th 2010

    dre, if i’m dribbling the ball and my defender is in front of me, am i allowed to put my hand in his face with the hand i’m not dribbling with (not touching him, just putting it in front of his eyes like you would if you were guarding someone’s shot)? i’ve seen videos of steve francis doing it when he’s playing street ball. i really like this move because it freezes my defender and keeps him from guarding me too close, but whenever i do it, my defender always gets pissed off and tells me i’m cheating and sometimes starts hacking me. i usually wait until game point to do it just out of courtesy, but i spend the whole game thinking “man, his hands are down and his face is wide open” would you use it the whole game or is that too cheap?

    thank you! great site/videos; they’ve helped me a lot. see you in the NBA, brother!

  253. it’s your game so decide for yourself what you should do. if it works, maybe you will start a new trend in the game.

  254. Im hard to get in a 3-point shot….any tips for me pls??

  255. practice.

  256. Ryan Garcia Jul 23rd 2010

    Yo dre was just wondering what jersey number do you like to have/wear and why? And you should make a shirt like it for sale!

  257. i have no preference.

  258. dre, i watched probably 100 of your youtube vids for the last 2-3 hours. lol, i’m inspired. i’m 14 and i just started playing basketball. do you think i can play college ball one day if i work hard?

  259. how can i beat players that are a lot quicker, stronger, and can jump higher than me? i stick to my bread and butter, which is shooting, but they either block the shot or i cant create space. any tips?

  260. welcome. if you think you can, i do too.

    My workout will be just as effective if I do natural workouts like pushups, dips, etc. instead of using machines at the gym right?

  262. yo watddup dre. i got a question…. in 1 of ur vids u sed if u go hard in your workouts, its impossible to work over an hour and a half. well my workout last 6-7 hours including weight and cardio and conditioning so basically 5 hours of basketball. the reason its so long is because of my shooting part that last 3 hours. i make around 200 3′s and 50 inside the arc jumpers. i feel like its pointless though because my shooting workout isnt intense really at all. will i still get great results by shooting shots at game speed with a lot of reps? if not, is there any intense shooting drills you’d recommend. thanks, im a big fan and i hope you get to the nba! if adam morrison can do it, im sure as hell youd be atleast an allstar. good luck dre

  263. ask a personal trainer.

  264. im not in the business of telling ppl how to work out and/or what to do — you decide for yourself. here’s my Shooting Playlist; http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=2EA5EAFA3D833B2C

  265. can u post a vid of your basketball games for the d league? i wanna see the hard work u show us u put in really screws around with others! U A BEAST

    hey dre, i’m competing for the starting point guard spot against 3 other really good point guards.

    the first one: he’s really fast and can really jump but he doesn’t pass that much and his jumpers kinda sucks. he also practices probably 30 mins a day and those 30 minutes are lazy and he doesn’t work hard

    the second one: he is quick as hell but he is pretty short and has a horrible shooting form but if he gets the shot off, he makes it about 50% of the time. I don’t think he practices more than an hour a day

    the 3rd one: he rarely misses a 3 pointer. he gets a lot of steals but he also cant play good defense. he guards his man tight and he goes for the steal everytime but if he doesn’t get it, he’s at half court while his guy is already at the freethrow line driving. he also rarely gets the ball to the open man and dribbles about 10-15 times before shooting or passing. he’s at the ymca probably everyday for 3-4 hours with his friends but the games might not be competitive, they probably just bullsht cuz thats the kinda guy he is.

    myself: I can sometimes shoot the 3 if i’m confident and my midrange game is really good. I have really good handles and i rarely get turnovers. I am a pass first kind of player unless my team is losing, then i bring the offense and start scoring a lot of points. I drive the ball to make the defense collapse and either kick it out, pass it to the man right on the block since his man collapsed, or if nobody steps over to help out i just get the layup. I also practice playing basketball 6-7 hours a day and then i lift weights for 1 hour a day. I do not accept defeat.

    I just want to know whatt your personal thoughts are. who do you think would be most likely to start as the point guard? these 3 guys are really the only decent point guards at my school and us 4 are the only ones likely to make the team.
    thanks! and sorry 4 the long messge

  274. if u watched my vids and still need more help then look elsewhere.

  275. ask urself a question: who decides what players play and who doesnt play? the coach, right? ask him who will be starting!

    can u give me a quick sample.

  288. xavier Aug 3rd 2010

    when u was a kid practicin n’ working owt, what was ya thinkin? like, was u like “im going to outwork every1 in da worl” or like was u just keepin in mind “imma be in da nba. dis is how;hardwork” i mean waddup dre. wat was ya thinkin

  289. it’s been awhile since i was a kid so i dont remember. either way, it wouldnt matter for you. find what motivates YOU, which may not be what works/ worked for anyone else. make your own path.

  290. Hey Dre, whattup?

    Popping here to say hi ask you which supplements have you been using, since i doubt someone can make such muscle gains on a regular basis just by working out hard.

    Also NBA is quite liberal when it comes to doping and supplementation. So I don’t see the reason why wouldn’t you use them if those are gonna bust your overall performance… Unfortunately Europe is still rather conservative when that issue is discussed.

    Wish you the best of luck on your road to the NBA! Just stay focused, man and remember sky is the limit!

    You’re doing great job in getting these effing lazy kids motivated, you’re already some kind of role model to them. Even if you don’t make it to the NBA, you’ve already done impressive job!!

    Respect man!

    Greetings from Serbia!

    Igor

  291. hey Igor, thanks for the message.
    i do not take any supplements. i have in the past taken protein and creatine occasionally but nothing more. and yes, you can gain significant muscle/ strength “just by working out.” there is no secret formula or magic potion to getting better, or stronger. i can attest to this.
    the NBA is not as stringent as international doping governing bodies or major league baseball when it comes to what goes into an athlete’s body, but that does not mean a player will get away with taking anything recklessly. you can read up on the league’s doping policies if you search the intenet.
    thanks very much for the support. im glad that people are learning from the stuff i share and i appreciate you letting me know!

  292. James Aug 5th 2010

    ty dre thnx to u the freshman basketball coach wants me to be on the team for freshman

  293. hey dre im a 18 year old dude who just started playing ball like three years ago its been a struggle man and i need some advice on whether i should keep playing or practicing really bcuz thats all i been doing i havent played on a team yet i was thinking about playing this but im not sure so i hope you can give me some advice i would really appreciate it thanks

  294. congrats!

  295. advice on what — if you should play bball or not? it’s your life, dude, decide for yourself! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAp-DHE9UkU

  296. hey man, im 15 and 5’11 what would be the most important thing to work on?

  297. sup dre.

    do you have a recommendation for a good performance OUTDOOR bball shoe? the most important thing im looking for is Traction/grip!

    i used to ball primarily indoor so i would just rock some kobe IVs or kobe Vs because I like the lowcut for quickness.
    indoors, they perform absolutely great, but I took my kobe IVs to the outdoor courts the other day and I was slippin and sliding everywhere, and I could feel immense pressure on my ankles, almost to the point of pain.

    i was lookin into hyperfuses if youve ever given them a try, but again my biggest concern is traction!

  298. i have no suggestion for you. if u can play, the shoes wont make a difference.

  299. yakobus (james) made adiyatama Aug 11th 2010

    hey< dre

  304. Dennis Aug 13th 2010

    thank u dude..

  305. My summer:
    1. Waking up in 07.00 AM
    2. Eating breakfast and watching your vids.
    3. Going to the court at 08.00 AM
    *3-4 hours playing*
    4. Home (doing nothing (TV `n shit))
    5. Going to the court with my friends again at the evening..
    What i`m trying to say is – I started to work harder after watching your vids for a while.
    Thanks Dre, and sorry for my bad english..

  306. nice.

  307. Reggie Aug 23rd 2010

    Hi Dre!
    Thank you for all ur great vids!
    They really helped me in a lot of ways and even helped me make the team this year!

    Ur a great ballplayer and rolemodel.

    thank you

    Reggie

  308. thank you and congrats!!

  309. I’m curious about what you would do in my situation, I’m trying to figure out what I should personally do but some exterior advice might be helpful.

    just moved, and I’m right in range for a really good highschool team. seeing as I’m going into grade 11, it’s the break out year where I need to make some kind of improvement and do something big if I intend on playing ball in university. No doubt I’m staying for a victory lap, but just practising on my game and being good might not be enough to cut this team. They’re established, have a core group and are overall one of the better teams in state. Why would they need a new guy ? Is there something you think I can do as a basketball player to “Shine” in this situation, or is practising to the best of my ability all I can do at this point ?

    Thanks, good luck with your own journey.

  310. if you’re good enough, they will have u on their team. speak to the coach. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsrHx09JEBw

  311. Dre you are my freakin idol!!!!! I wanna ball and show others how to ball just like you. You see when I first started playin ball I was TERRIBLE!!!!!! but I learned from you that keepin a posotive attitude and seting your mind right you can become a better player in any sport and I just wanna say your the ish and I really wanna be like you even though my goal is to be in the NBA but I wouldnt mind balling up just how you do.Keep doin ya thing dre ball all day 24/7 365!!!

  312. Justin Aug 24th 2010

    Watup Dre,

    I guess this is a lack of belief/confidence in myself and yes, I have seen your vid on confidence many times. I don’t want to live on false hope faking, thinking that I’ll play pro ball one day. But, then again it is my dream to play pro ball. So, do you have any advice on how to overcome the fear of failure? Thnx and I swear I cant wait to see you in action in the NBA.

  313. Justin Aug 24th 2010

    Oh yeah and one more thing, you should change your last name to Dre Balln’. lol just a thought

  314. good site~~
