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.

More cinnamon flavor than vanilla
I really wanted to like this lip balm but, as another person commented, the cinnamon flavor dominates. It does moisturize quite well if you can overlook how spicy the cinnamon tastes. Would have preferred just plain vanilla instead. Not sure I'll keep this.

hot cinnamon
Only had this one day and I do like it but would like to note the cinnamon is more like hot tamale cinnamon not cinnamon roll cinnamon. still does the job but my chapped lips give a good burn for maybe 30 sec :( going to check if they have another flavor option for next order

Best lip balm I’ve found yet
Every lip balm or chapstick I have ever used has always bothered my lips and made them peel. I’ve tried cheap chapsticks to organic chapsticks to vegan and nothing has ever worked. I figured I’d give this a try since I didn’t have much to lose and I am SO glad I did. This is the first lip balm that hasn’t made my lips peel. I LOVE THIS. And the cinnamon vanilla smells divine. This is definitely going to be my go to from now on.

LIP GOO GOOD ENOUGH FOR EDS PATIENTS!!! I have old school type3, the super bad…
First of all… I used to have a desserts catering side hustle and my oatmeal scotchie recipe starts smelling EXACTLY like this combo!!! I am 51 and have tried LITERALLY THOUSANDS of chapstick type lip goos, I have a genetic disorder that prevents me from being able to absorb anything… most to all chapsticks DO NOT WORK but my lips are currently soft… it actually feels amazing to have something on my lips that seems to work!!! Instead on sitting on my lips or skin all weird and greasy til I freak out rub everything off!!! It’s working… NOT SOMETHING I WAS ACTUALLY WILLING TO ADMIT TO… My VEGAN MOTHER talked me into trying this, she’s more absorbent and can use other products, I cannot, however!!! I seriously LOVE THIS GOO!!!

you won’t regret it
absolute life saver on a winter trip to austria, and has become my go-to every day since! even before my trip i was struggling with chapped lips and this healed them and protected them through winter sports better than anything i’ve ever used, and i’m a lip balm snob. smells amazing, feels amazing. 10/10!
