Right now I'm torn between two approaches before local league games. Should I focus on isolating specific skills—like ball handling drills or shooting form—and gradually build up to full scrimmages? Or is jumping into controlled game situations at full speed more effective for in-game prep? I get that scrimmages simulate the chaos, but too much without structure might reinforce bad habits. How do you strike that balance? Any drills you swear by to bridge the gap between practice and competition?
Pre-competition training: more skill drills or more scrimmages?

Hmm, scrimmages are great for game feel but yeah, bad habits can sneak in if you don’t control the chaos. Maybe try high-intensity drills with reps at game speed first—like 3-point shooting under a timer—and then sprinkle in short scrimmages where you enforce one specific rule (e.g. no dribbling past half court). That way you get the intensity without letting sloppy plays become “normal.”
