I picked it up on a lark (Amazon recommended it to me), read first chapter on Kindle for free, ended u buying it and read it in a few days. I was expecting a poorly conceived hastily assembled type work, the kind coaches have ghost-written for them after they win the super bowl or something. This work was a lot more interesting, surprisingly introspective. Ravin's story itself is a nice yarn - how he inconceivably ends up where he does, there are probably dozens or hundreds of individuals that are more qualified on paper to do what he does, yet the best players want him for training. I think the reasons why shine through in the book -- Ravin seems much more conscientious of player privacy, more focused knowing the players at a deep level, respecting and seeing boundaries others would likely march right across; understanding the NBA and all of its cronies for what they are. It's a good self improvement book too if you want it to be that. As for basketball itself, the most interesting thing is asking why the best of the best even get a personal trainer in the first place, as there are literally dozens of assistant coaches ready to try to do what Ravin does if such is looked at in simplistic terms - work on moves, fundamentals, etc. But obviously there's a lot more to what these training sessions mean to the players than just fundamentals; and there's something said for having the training sessions by somebody who's 100% in your camp, not the coach's camp. I think this just shows that getting back to basics (hardwood, sweat, jump rope), is kind of like getting into one's core of what makes one tick, and can recharge batteries, cause one to think differently about situations -- seems like Ravin is half trainer, half shrink for his players, unlocking hidden motivations. Found it really interesting. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Wonderful Blueprint for the Flexible Dreamer *by T***S on Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2020* Great book - truly inspiring, interesting and heart warming.Here's the 2 cent notes:-Fantastic and perfect book for anyone with an interest in any form of coaching or teaching-Fun book for any basketball fan-Awesome book for anyone looking to chase or follow a dreamI loved this book.It's rare to find those that have chased a dream and have been able to adapt and contort with that dream as it elusively evolves as life goes on -- it's very hard to explain and Idan Ravin does a remarkable job explaining it.Everything else I have to say here is pretty much personal mumbo jumbo - the book is cheap enough to take a chance on and the story is really good and inspiring that it's TOTALLY worth it -- you're curious enough that you're reading reviews - just buy the book.If you've ever seen "Dead Poet's Society" - (if not do so immedietly) - this book captures that feel of obsession and passion being channeled and sought after -- the big difference is that here it's done ... responsibly AND with faith AND trust in truth.It's a great book and a type of loose blueprint to follow as you look at what and where you want to be ### ⭐⭐⭐ Just "ok" vignettes of a trainer's work with famous ballers *by R***Y on Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2020* So if you want this trainer's insights into his feelings and approaches to training athletes--it is an ok read. But you really have zero in terms of actual drills described or any secret methods. About all you get is that he makes these guys run.I do like the insight into some of the players (almost all positive commentary, of course, by the trainer). And I think this is an ideal book (drum roll) other trainers! That's right. If you aspire to train high level athletes: this is for you.But for a player it has little practical value. I actually think hearing about Ravin's own athletic bio was most interesting and useful.Also, if you are big NBA fan you get some honest comments from a trainer about some of the darkness of the league in terms of how they view outside trainers.But there are no hoops secrets. I would actually buy his book of drills or training methods (and this is not that--at all). --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/99795363-the-hoops-whisperer-on-the-court-and-inside-the-heads](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/99795363-the-hoops-whisperer-on-the-court-and-inside-the-heads) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-14*
