You work with the team. You come to practices and help them in practice. Your in charge of making sure all the balls and equipment are put away at the end of practice. You also have to be there at all the games and sometimes they make you in charge of refreshing the teammates or keeping track of the scores. Usually they have a parent or someone else keep stats but I'm not totally sure. And don't worry on what to do, the coaches will fill you in on everything you have to do.

I can understand Sports, but I'm confused as to why this is in Basketball.

A macro manager manages at the correct level. i.e. the big picture. A micro manager is just a supervisor who meddles.

well, you call/write/text the players.  you try and sell your program to them, explaining why your team is good, why they will fit in.  you sell what you have, if you aren't such a great team, you sell a shot at early playing time, if you're really good, you sell the idea of being a part of a title contender and contributing to a winning program

the positions are:\n\ncenter, usually the biggest guy gets alot of rebounds,blocks and takes the tip, stays under hoop(think of shaquille oneal)\n\npower forward, similar to center, except usually better at ball handling, more agile, stands down close to the basket but also can be far enough as 10 ft along the baseline usually\n\nsmall forward, usually a semi big guy but can also shoot well most all round player on the court, stays on perimeter of 3 pt line and usually cuts toward basket\n\nshoot guard, small player who scores alot and shoots threes, stays at top of 3 pt line and cuts towards the sides for a three\n\npoint guard, who dribbles the ball upcourt and gets alot of assists, can be good at scoring and threes but main purpose is to call plays and pass, also at top of 3 pt line but dribbles all around until people get open\n\nin many college teams there are 3 guards and 2 forwards, but not very often in the NBA, also there are 12 men on a NBA roster, sometimes the guards can be called the 1 and 2 guards, the 1 is point and 2 is shooting\n\na swingman, such as kobe bryant or tracy mcgrady can play either small forward or shooting guard

Five players from each team may be on the court at one time. Teams can have up to seven substitutes. Substitutions are unlimited but can only be done when play is stopped. Teams also have a coach, who oversees the development and strategies of the team, and other team personnel such as assistant coaches, managers, statisticians, doctors and trainers.

Point Guard: The shotcaller of the offense, he suppost to make his way down the court and set up the play. He is basically the Floor General, he sets up his teammates with the quick dishoff, and try to set them up for some good looks. Usually, the PG is the leader of the team.\n\nShooting Guard: Another player that usually stays on the wing on defense, man to man mostly too, but usually on 2-3 defense where the Shooting Guard and the Point Guard stays on the wings. He is mainly the number one option on Fast Breaks, just like the Small Forward is another option as well. He is the guy that can make impacts to your squad. Kobe Bryant, Ray Allen, Dwyane Wade, and Allen Iverson are all Shooting Guards that do this..they make big impacts in a way other positions can, but can't. They sometimes make the outcome of the game more worthy, and can be a leader just as much as the Point Guard too. However, they rarely bring up the ball, or set up the play like Point Guards.\n\nSmall Forward: Another example of a fast break player that can get up the court, quickly, and make some good angles at penetrating inside on the defense. Mainly a defensive minded player just like the Power Forward, just not as big as a PF. The Small Forward is like the Shooting Guard. Just maybe an inch or two taller. LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Ron Artest, Lamar Odom, Paul Pierce, Bruce Bowen, James Posey, and Antoine Walker are some examples of Small Forwards in today's game.\n\nPower Forward - Main key to his game is to stay down low most of the time, set up picks, take the ball and use force to get to the basket and not charge at the defensive player. Some are finese, and some of the best players in today's game are Power Forwards. It takes strength to be a forward, you have to use a good balance of finese and power  like said. They grab rebounds strong and swings their elbows out at defenders to clear them away to make some space on the defensive boards, and give it off to the Point Guard to make a run at a fast break attempt or just slowly but momentumly take the ball up the court. Some examples are Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Udonnis Haslem, Tim Thomas, Rasheed Wallace, and Boris Diaw.\n\nCenter - Their main purpose is not usually the offensive side, but can easily be effective by using them as an option on offense, they are similar to Power Forwards because they also set up picks and grab clear of rebounds. They should be much stronger than Power Forwards at using body space to clear a path, but they don't really need to, they should have enough body on them to break off the defender and give the ball off to the Point Guard. They are effective to give the ball down low, and kick it out to a wing player (i.e the guards) for a quick 3,also works off the screen, or drawing in defensive players while backing down, looking like he is going to attack the basket strong.\n\nSeems like the other answers did not give enough in-depth, so I am glad to help. I've watched basketball through so many years, the Magic Johnson era, then the MJ era. People call me "The NBA Guru." And i've been a writer for so long now.

Sometimes during warmup or training the managers step in and show the players what they want them to do.

Its a theory but you still have a goal of getting a group of individuals to play together as a cohesive group.  That's what his job is, to get all his players on the same page working for the same goal. It may sound easy but when your talking about ( usually) millionaire men in their 20's and 30's with egos that have been fed since they were in junior high it is difficult to get them to put aside their own personal good and focus on whats good for the team. That is the skill that the coach has, its not teaching at that level its more directing and delegating.  You would think that since they are grown adults that they wouldn't need supervision or a "Coach" in the context that you put it but at that level the things the Coach does is so much more.  He can watch the game from a view point of how is the team doing where as an individual player is more focused on how he or she is doing also they usually have more experience in the sport than the players they are coaching and from that experience they can guide them into situations and prepare them for situations that they have never experienced. Also history has shown great coaches can get more out of players than regular coaches.  A great coach can push a player to be better than he is.

coaches look for consistent players. im sure you've heard this a lot, but it is important that you keep your game steady. (ex. i have jamal crawford on my fantasy team who hits up to 35 points a game, but is very inconsistent, and thats why i dropped him). also, as much as they might look for height, they focus on skill more\n\nalso, they also look for other tiny things such as: not giving them attitude, giving them attention when they talk, trying your best, listening.. etc\n\nbtw thanks for your advice, and i have some more advice to give to you regarding ur other question. when you get the ball, get in a comfortable position and relax, like take a deep breath and remind yourself that you dont need to rush. next, since you are a good shooter, try this move: make a large step forward into ur opponent with ur right leg (if u are right handed) and pretend to drive, then back up and drain that sucka. becareful not to step too far though, otherwise ull be slow in pulling back up.

Depends on what the project is, but generally a project manager is in charge of the job (database roll out for example).  They make sure that the timelines and deliverables are met.  They schedule and chair meetings.  They plan and possibly do the budgets.
