When people new to basketball think of this, they'll most likely believe: shooting, defense, and passing. There is some truth to this, but let's take it a step further.
Shooting: It goes further into stance, holding the ball, concentration, using your legs, aiming for the nest, releasing the ball, following through, and polishing it with drills and correcting errors.
Defense: It goes further into zone defense, man defense, team defense, how the opposing team plays, mismatches, how your man is playing, and etc.
Offense: It goes further into triangle offense, mismatches, pick and roll, team offense, distributing the ball, mismatches, zone penetration, and etc.
Passing: It goes further into the spin of the ball, the angle of the ball, the direction of the ball, making eye contact, and etc.
Dribbling: It goes further into the bounce of the ball, the angle of the ball, using your body as protection, fakes, and etc.
The Mind: This is the most important one out of all of these(ask The Answer AKA Allen Iverson). Develop your confidence, your tendencies, your mindset, and etc.
You might be thinking," Wow, basketball is so structured and difficult for a random guy." Trust me, it's very difficult. You could write a thousand page essay on making eye contact, yet in the end, you're just freaking looking at the player. Honestly, I won't go into further detail of all these, except my take of them. There's a bunch of other sites and books that has already gone into way further detail than me.
