General Comments Here is a great rule anytime you are running the Flex and cannot make the guard to guard pass up top, just yell PICK and you will get a ball screen that will break down the defense. This is very simple, but effective. *Eye Contact between the two players up top is very important. Lindsay Gaze 1 While I was playing at our national and international level my club was privileged to host many fine teams from the United States of America and Europe as well as an occasional stop over in Asia to take part in tournaments or exhibition games. During this period I also had the chance to meet outstanding coaches who have influenced my philosophy of the game and coaching methods. One of the most significant pieces of advice was to select a style of play, learn from others who have similar points of view and stick with it. My own coach, Ken Watson, who coached Australia’s first Olympic team in 1956 and again in 1968, introduced a “shuffle” offence after being impressed by Bruce Drake, one of the assistant coaches of the USA 1956 Olympic team. When I took over coaching the Melbourne “Tigers” in 1971 I adopted similar methods, although many refinements have been made as the skills and athleticism of players have developed incredibly since then. The national teams I coached at Olympics and World Championships from 1972 to 1985 used the same methods as my club teams, but in each case the points of emphasis would vary depending on the talent available. During my time as coach of our national team we were always giving away size and height advantage to our main opponents and yet were able to produce leading scorers such as Eddie Palubinskas, Ian Davies and Andrew Gaze. In 1984 the Australian team was dubbed “the undersize over achievers. The Melbourne “Tigers” shuffle offense requires every player to be capable of playing every position and it is not unusual for the taller forwards and centres to be playing the same roles usually reserved for guards. It has been argued that moving the big players away from the basket reduces their rebounding potential and high percentage scoring opportunities, but equally it can create problems for opponents who, in many cases, are unfamiliar with defending on the perimeter. Similarly developing our “guards” to be effective “post up” players provides numerous opportunities to exploit mis-matches. One of the most important reasons why we use a “shuffle” offense is due to the fact that in our national league and internationally we have always given away size and height advantage to our opponents. If we were to play them at their own game we would be doomed to failure. It has only been in recent years that our national team has developed enough big men like Luc Longley, Mark Bradtke, Chris Anstey and a new generation of juniors, like David Anderson, Andrew Bogut and our 2003 World junior champions, that we are starting to get on even terms. When a club, or national team uses the same methods for their offensive structure for many years and you teach your methods at camps and clinics, it is inevitable that opposition coaches will refine their defensive methods and apply different strategies to counter your play. This has always been a learning process and as a result our club has been exposed to just about every variety of defense imaginable. The defensive methods have varied from the standard 2-3 zones to the less conventional box and 1, triangle and 2, alternating from man to man to zone etc. The great benefit of what we do is we are able to use the same basic principles of our offense, with only slight adjustments to timing and cuts, regardless of the defensive methods. Lindsay Gaze 2 BASIC 3 RD OPTION The basic positions for all players are very Dia 1 important. Variation to positions will affect options that should be included to counter defensive over-plays. 1 is the “feeder”. He sets up with the inside 4 1 foot close to the three point line at the free 5 throw line extended. 2. is the “point guard and takes up a position 3 2 directly in line with the basket 3 is the “first cutter” –usually the play making guard capable of posting up His 4 3 starting position is in line with the post and dia2 the basket. 4 is the “second cutter” usually a strong perimeter shooter capable of making a strong drive and jump shot off the dribble. 2 1 5 is the “post man”- a good screener and “post target”: 5 Dia 1. 3 passes to 2 and sets up his opponent for a cut off 5.

  • 2-1-2 Modified Flex
    2-1-2 Modified Flex Introduction The flex offense is utilized in all levels of basketball, and there have been many variations of this offense. The base cuts of the 2-1-2 Modified Flex is the “Flex Cut” and “UCLA” back screen. As with the other flex offenses, players need to be able to make reads on defensive overplays. Also, as a coach, you will have to decide if you want to “head hunt” the defense when you screen or screen an area and have your cutters rub the screen. Either way, the offensive cutter and the screener are going to have to work together in order to get open looks. If the cutter is not going to allow the screener to get set, you are going to run into some timing issues. Being that this is a continuity offense, all 5 players need to be able to play all the positions on the floor. Therefore, your post players are going to have to be able to play on the perimeter and your guards are going to have to be able to in the post. Allowing time for individual development is therefore vital to the success of this offense. In this offense, every time a player catches the ball, he needs to use the Rim Post Action philosophy. On the catch, players should look to shoot or drive (Rim), dump the ball in the post (Post), or make a ball reversal pass (Action). Spacing is also critical in this offense. You will want to spread the defense so that there is more room for cutting and penetration.

UCONN is all about rebounding & defense. Ball Screen Offensive is all about reading and countering the defense. Like playing motion, you read and react to the defense “Turnover, Don’t practice turnovers.” This is a favorite Lickliter comment during workouts. Terminology with the ball=Low and tight, below the knees. WING ON BALL SCREEN SCREENER/BIGS 1. Low and Wide is what they tell the screener. 2. Screeners back toward the paint/opposite sideline instead toward half court. Gives the ball handler a much better “angle” for driving. 3. Left foot is ON the three point line.

  • Man to Man Motion Offense Summary This Play Is Great to Use for Youth Coaches, Because It Is Very Simple to Teach, Yet Effective
    Simple Baskeball Offenses Man to Man Motion Offense Summary This play is great to use for youth coaches, because it is very simple to teach, yet effective. You can also use this as a simple, continuity offense that you will run over and over. The offense starts in a basic 1-3-1 set. It will provide dribble-drive opportunities. Personnel You want Players 4 & 5 to be your post players. You want players 1, 2, & 3 to have good ball handling skills. Instructions 1. Player 1 can pass to either wing, Player 2 or 3. If the player is on the block on the ball side, he will cut to the opposite block to clear out the ball side. In this case, Player 4 goes to the opposite block for Player 1 to make a basket cut. It will also create an opportunity for Player 2 to dribble drive, if he/she sees an advantage. (Figure 1) 2. Player 1 fakes towards the opposite wing, then brushes his man off Player 5 as he cuts to the basket. (Figure 2) 3. When Player 1 reaches the block area, Player 5 flashes to the high post. Player 2 can pass to either Player 1 or Player 5. If Player 5 gets the ball in the high post, he can also dump the ball down to Player 1. If Player 1 can get the defensive player on his outside hip, he can get an easy score. (Figure 3) 4. If player 1 is not open, he/she cuts to the opposite wing, and Player 5 replaces him on the low block.

    Randy Bennett – 2017 Final Four – PICKANDPOP.NET Randy Bennett St. Mary’s 2017 Final Four – Phoenix, Arizona -Two things in the last 30 years have changed the game: 1. Three-point line 2. Use of on-balls (pick & roll) -We were ahead of the game with using the pick & roll as our primary offense. The rage then in the college game was “Dribble Drive Motion” but our guards weren’t athletic enough to just blow by you. They were good, but they needed help to get that penetration. We studied Mike D’Antoni’s Phoenix Suns teams and thought it fit nicely with our personnel. -On-balls are a talent equalizer of sorts. The on-ball gives you the advantage/penetration and everything goes from there. -Why on-balls? 1. Create penetration (leads to layups, 3’s, and free throws) 2. Create mismatches 3. Gets their bigs away from the rim (makes x5 cover more floor / gets him away from rim) 4. You can hide a 5-man that can’t score 5. You can get your 5-man easy baskets (rolls, drop-offs, offensive rebounds) -So much of our scouting gets down to “How are they going to defend our on-balls?” -I’ve heard the D’Antoni thing about slipping the screen early and I’m not saying he’s wrong, but we teach our bigs to set a good, hard screen. If there’s one thing my guys are sick of hearing me talk about, it’s actually setting the screen. You have to make the big help.
