NADA: The Antifragile Defense is not a drill book or a specific system. NADA is flexible, a philosophy, a way to view defense in the modern game. The objective is not to memorize strict rules or create a black-and-white system, but to develop intuition and decision-making around a simple philosophy and rules of thumb. NADA aims to defend space and disrupt offenses, reducing big and small advantages to neutral or no advantage, while seeking defensive advantages. NADA develops players and a playing style that thrive in disorder: An antifragile defense.

I conceived of NADA (No Advantage/Defensive Advantage) shortly after publishing SABA: The Antifragile Offense, but the details have evolved and progressed. Truthfully, these ideas have percolated in the recesses of my mind since I first coached AAU and read about Ralph MillerÕs system at Oregon State, but everything coalesced while coaching multiple teams at different competitive levels with different personnel in over 120 games in one season.

Offensive basketball evolved over the last decade, with teams at every level embracing advantages and .5-second offenses, but defensive concepts, drills, and instructions remain stuck in the 20th Century. Coaches have popularized specific presses, ideas (no middle), and systems (pack-line), but the general concepts and skills have changed little. All defenses use the same basic skills Ñ everyone moves laterally, closes out, denies passes, plays help defense, and more Ñ but NADA updates these basics to combat modern offenses.

NADA is more of a philosophy than a system, flexible ideas to implement with a coachÕs own personnel. NADA moves beyond rigid rules and predictability to focus on minimizing advantages. The book outlines the basic philosophy, the rules of thumb to teach the defensive philosophy, and different ways to employ the philosophy in various game states, and includes links to over 40 videos demonstrating the ideas and skills.

NADA: The Antifragile Defense is my 27th book for basketball coaches, and the first to focus specifically on defense. Much as SABA presented a new way to view offensive basketball, NADA presents a new defensive approach to combat 21st Century offenses.

Very good product
Size: Medium, Color: (001) Black / Black / Pitch Gray
I purchased these to wear inside lowcut slip on casual shoes, I don't particularly like to not wear socks in my shoes for hygienic reasons. Prior to purchasing these socks, all I could find were those made of very light beige hosiery type material , and my slip on shoes would slide around a bit. These are light weight and breathable athletic type material, with a very good gripper strip at the heel. One pair of my slip on casual shoes have a particularly lower cut in the toe area, but the shoe is black and I chose the black color and though I see a hint of the sock there, it matches and does not detract from the look of the casual solid black shoe

They stay out! No more sock wads!
Size: Medium, Color: (100) White / White / Mod Gray
Best no show socks ever made!!!!! I've been struggling for 2 years to find ones that actually stay on your foot, even other national brands, and I just became content wearing my sneakers without socks. They ALWAYS slid down into my show & I ended up walking on a wad of sock until I could fix it...or usually just took them off after a couple of tries. Enter Under Armor!!! They a mid weight, but not very thick & still breathable. They work too by actually staying on your foot! Not once have they slid down into my show!! Very comfortable but they could be a little more affordable.
