Winning little battles is what wins the games… this is well said by Steve Kerr

“How many battles, little battles can you win? Box out, loose ball. He won a million battles tonight. That’s what wins games.”

A big difference between volleyball and basketball is that every "possession" scores. If you take a play off physically or mentally, you lose the point.
Every play has a 'serve-receive battle'.
Many plays have an attack/block or attack/dig battle.
The exceptional teams win points. The Newton Norths and Westboroughs don't give away many points. Once the Middlesex League wasn't so strong, so there might be five or six highly competitive matches. Now the regular season brings more than half the matches as highly competitive. You can't rely on the "generosity of strangers" to give you points.
Succeed with aggression, consistency, and mental toughness.
