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. Note: it is important that 3 does not cut until the pass is in motion to, or has been received by the feeder. 1 may feed 3 if open on the cut (early) or in the low post, or in the corner. If no pass to 3, 5 screens second cutter 4 to Dia 3 3 prevent 4’s man from fighting over the top. 2 sets effective double screen and aims to prevent 4’s defender to slide through underneath . 4 has opportunity to receive pass for a jump shot around the free throw line, or to set up a 2 4 1 high post target. 5 Dia 2 If feeder passes the ball to 3 in the corner, 4, slides down to low post position for possible pass and subsequent scoring options. Dia 4 Note : when ever a pass is made to a high post or low post position the player in the 2 spot and the weak-side wing make cuts for scoring options as in dia 3 If the feeder does not make a penetrating pass 2 4 3 the players adjust to the basic positions on the right side of the floor and the same options can 1 be repeated with 1 becoming the new 3 man 5 (first cutter) 3 becomes the new 4 man (second cutter) 4 becomes the post and 2 becomes the feeder. 5 becomes the 2 man dia 4 Lindsay Gaze 3

FIRST OPTION

Players set up in the same positions as for a regular third option shuffle cut. 3 has the Dia 5 choice of passing to 2, which will signal a third option, but may choose to pass to 4, which signals a first option. Dia. 1 Note: In all cases the post will pivot on the 4 1 foot closest to the direction of the first pass 5 and will screen with his back to the cutter.

Dia 5 3 cuts using the screen set by 5 and 3 2 looks to receive a return pass from 4. and possible scoring option. If no pass to 3, 5 sets inside screen for 4 who looks to make penetrating drive and possible Dia 6 jump shot around free throw line, or screen 1 and roll pass to 5. 2 3

Dia 6 If 4 does not shoot or pass to 5 he passes to 3 who has come off double screen 4 5 set by 2 and 1. 3 may take short jump shot or look to 5 who comes off screen set by 2.

Note 2 should stay on double screen until pass is in motion to 3 and then he crosses lane to set screen for 5. 5 must wait for Dia 7 1 screen to arrive before making a cut otherwise opposing defensive players can 2 5 “zone” the inside area and make good 3 scoring options more difficult. While 2 is setting screen for 5, 1 presents a low post 4 target moving out just far enough from the 2 key to force the defense to respect him. If 1 steps out too far the defense may choose to ignore him and concentrate on clogging the middle to defend 5. Dia 7 3 may pass to 5 in low post or 1, who Dia 8 1 may have a short jump shot, as his man tends to help the post defender. However 1 2 5 may feed post as well. 3 may also feed 2 5 coming off screen set by 4. 3 Dia 8 If 3 does not feed anyone he balances 4 the ball to the basic position and may choose to run a third option, or pass to 1 which will signal another first option on right side.. Lindsay Gaze 4

REVERSE

Dia. 9. When the feeder is overplayed he may choose to run a back door cut. Note: this is the reason 3 should not be cutting until the pass is on the way to the feeder. We do not want 3 and 1 to be cutting to the same area of the court at the same time. 4 5 1 If the back door cut is not on, then 2 looks back to 3. This signals 3 to now make his cut (or look for kick back options – 3 2 described later) 2 then concentrates on the 4 man’s defensive opponent and commences hard drive off post screen set by 5. 2 aims to Dia 10 give 4 a hand off pass and continues his cut 2 around screen set by 1. After 4 receives 1 hand off he may have jump shot option or a 3 pass back to 2.

Dia.10. If no shot or pass to 2 then 4 passes 4 5 to 3 who comes off screen set by 1. Note all of this action is similar to a regular 2 first option except the play is started with a drive to the 4 man instead of a pass and 3 is coming off a single screen instead of a 2 double screen. After 4 has made his drive 5 5 1 rolls to low post area on the left and waits 3 for screen set by 1

Dia 11 If 3 does not have shot he looks for 4 5 coming off screen by 1, or a pass to 2 in medium low post area, or re-sets the offense to run any of the options from the right side. . Dia12 Dia 12. Variation. 3 may run a curl cut off 1 2 for possible jump shot, or continue to set 3 screen for 5. 1 steps back after screening 3 5 1 and if he receives pass from 4 will feed 5 or take possible jump shot, 4

Lindsay Gaze 5

REVERSE – VARIATIONS

Dia 13. If 4 is being over played 2 should Dia13 not force the hand off. 4 may just hold his 1 position temporarily allowing 2 to continue his drive to about the level of the hash marks 3 along the key way. 2 may have a jump shot 4 or he may look to 4 now after 4 has cut 5 around screen set by 5. 2 Dia 14 . If 2 does not have shot or pass to 4 he looks to 5 who has held his ground after 2’s drive. 5 makes a one bounce drive for possible jump shot, but more likely to pass to3 coming off screen set by 1. Note an Dia14 4 important rule for 3 is to always wait on the 1 screen until the ball gets to the middle of the 2 3 free throw line. This might be by way of a drive from 4 or from 5. The timing is critical, as there is no point 3 getting free if 5 the pass is not yet available.

Dia 15. Alternatively if 4 is being over played, he may choose to make a back door cut for possible pass from 2. If 2 does not make the pass to 4 on the back door cut he continues his drive for jump shot options or Dia15 the same continuity as described above. 3 1 Note the options described here are useful when aiming to establish early jump shot opportunities or post up options for either 4 5 guard. 2

Lindsay Gaze 6

KICK BACKS

Dia. 16. When the first cutter’s (3’s) defense Dia16 “cheats” to clog the keyway, 3 may elect to call for a “kickback” for potential shot aided by a screen set by 5. 5’s defense may try to help prevent, or block the shot and therefore 5 rolls to the basket on ALL kickback 4 5 1 options

3 2 Dia. 17 . If 3 does not shoot or pass to 5 he hands off to 4 and thus effectively generates another variation of a first option. 4 drives Dia17 5 off screen set by 3 and if no shot or pass 1 back to 3 on the roll off he passes to 1 2 stepping out off screen set by 2. 5 always continues his roll to the low post on the right side. If 1 does not have shot he looks to 3 4 3 coming off screen set by 2 or looks to five in medium low post position.

Dia. 18. If no scoring options taken 1 Dia18 5 balances to new three spot on right side and prepares to run a regular third option or first option. 3 2 1

Dia. 19 . The same rules apply if a kick back 4 is run off a first option. 5 MUST roll on the pass back to 3. 3 may choose to feed 5 or to hand off to 4 or take a one bounce drive to Dia19 the middle of the key and pass to 1. After 4 passes to 3 he waits just a moment to assess 3’s decision. If 3 drives to the middle, then 4 cuts to the baseline and waits for screen set by 2 4 5 1

Lindsay Gaze 7

INVERSION

Dia 20. When both forwards are being over played guards look to post 5, who steps out Dia20 to top of keyway (or as far as necessary to release the pressure). Guards and forwards invert.

Sometimes cheap scoring options on a 4 5 1 handoff or bounce pass, or late back-door cut on feeds from 5 are available. The guard who makes the first pass is the designated back-door cutter. (We don’t want both 3 2 guards to clutter the low post area) Dia21 Dia. 21 . If no “sucker” plays, the rule is 3 “whichever side the post passes the ball dictates the option. If he passes to the right side it will be a third option with 4 as the 2 first cutter and 3 as the second cutter. If 5 passes to the left side it will generate a first option with 4 as the cutter ant 3 as the 4 1 driver. 5

Note : Because 3 is now in a much lower position than normal for the second cutter of Dia22 a third option, the options vary slightly. 3 is told to wait low for the double screen set by 5 4 5 and 1. 3 looks for jump shot opportunity and if no pass balances to new 2 spot. 1 Usually because of the attention given to 3, 2 5 becomes the next target as he will curl 3 back inside after 3 cuts off his screen and presents a good option inside. 1 will balance to new feeder spot on left side. Dia23

Dia.22. If 2 does not pass to anyone he 3 2 balances to run another regular third or first option. 5

Dia 23 If 5 passes to left side it will lead to a first option. 4 cuts off screen set by 5 and 5 4 5 1 will then screen 3 for screen and roll options or regular continuation if necessary.

What has been shown here is the basic foundation for the Melbourne Tigers Shuffle Offense. There are many other options included in our structure to deal with different defences, particularly pressure defences. Also transition options that will allow us to exploit specific players and balance quickly into out half court game if necessary. The adjustment to the structure is minimal for zone defences, although the timing of cuts and decisions for dribble penetration are important.

We try to remind our players, it is not so much the structure, but how it is executed and why priorities are given to certain elements that will govern success. Trying to include too many options can lead to confusion and poor execution, while not having enough variety will invite strong defensive pressure and unless players are well prepared the structure will quickly break down.

Our methods require all players to have skills in every aspect of the game and it is almost impossible to “hide” inferior talent. It is not easy to teach and all players must be committed to the team structure and the team outcome. However the satisfaction the players get when everyone contributes to team success is much more rewarding and team morale usually remains high. The Shuffle I first came across the Shuffle offense when I picked Shuffle” up a book “Multiple Offense and Defense written by North Carolina’s Dean Smith, which also included a The main critisicsm of the Shuffle is that it is too section by Bob Spear on the Shuffle. mechanical, or as an excuse to stall and keep the ball from high scoring, strong rebounding and fast break- I have found since using it that it enhances and ing teams, or because the coach has a team of misfits, improves individual fundamentals as, everyone plays and lack team discipline. each and every position on the court.

Using with a stronger team against a weaker side i have One thing about the Shuffle is that in my experience found that the stronger teams destroys the Weaker. you have to practice it for several week before deploying it in a game, but it is well worth it I would be naive to say that the Shuffle is the any way and demand that every coach should use it, but I have found it to work very successfully at all levels from 12 year olds to senior basketball. I also have seen it be extremely effective against bigger sides as invariably Ihave been unlucky in not having sides with genuine size, although My Oxford University side was blessed with several Giants during the successful 1998-99 British Universities Championship season.

Since I first started unsung the Shuffle I have added three other options to the Shuffle that Dean Smith and Bob Spear outline, namely Greece which is a corner shot play which I came across, when I was involved in the European Youth Olympic Games at Bath during 1996 where the Greece Under 17 side scored a large number of baskets using this simple but effective play whilst playing a motion type offense.

I was fortunate to view the Princeton Offense, and this was enhanced by working with one of their for- mer leading scorers recently, Kim Allen, and thought that their Dribble weave backdoor play would fit in nicely with the whole of my Shuffle System.

The Shuffle is not nor has it ever been immune to crit- icism ever since Bruce Drake at the Oklahoma University utilised this basic cut during the 1950’s, which subsequently became known as the Drake The main goal of any offense is to score, this prime fact has to be the first and foremost in the minds of every player and coach. Everytime a player receives possession of the ball in any given situation on any offense, he should square up to the basket in a triple threat position.

◆ Can I shoot ◆ Can I drive to the hoop ◆ Can I pass to someone who can score

Inherently built into the Shuffle offense is the ability for keeping the defense honest, which will in turn open the door for many scoring opportunities.

I firmly believe that to understand the Shuffle is to understand the court positions, which is a basic over- load on either side of the court, as play flows contin- uously from one side of the court to the other.

For the simplification, of learning the shuffle I have numbered each position although this numbering should be dispensed with in favour of the name of each position which in turn describes the movement of the player. The meat of the Shuffle is the Basic Cut, although this is only one of several components it is all to easy to rely on the basic cut to the detriment of the Shuffle Offense and subsequently get bogged down and fail to accomplish the goal of the offense which is to score.

Diagram 2 Point Point Man is the playmaker of any team, the general on the court, and in the Shuffle he is the dictator who decides when and what options are to be made and taken.

The Point man should always be in his box at the top of the key to a metre or so higher. If he is to receive a ball from the first cutter he may have to release higher. If the point is receiving th ball it is important that he swings the ball quickly to the feeder, the best type of pass being a two handed overhead pass.

Diagram 3 Feeder This position is the key to the whole of the basic cut, he should line up in the low post next to the Buffer Marks on the side of the key.

To prepare to receive the ball he should first fake as if looking for the back door pass, he should then release dynamically to the wing area (foul line extended) to receive the ball from the point.

Having received the ball he should square up to the basket, as loads of scoring opportunities now start to appear. the first ones here are

◆ shot from the feeder ◆ drive to the basket 1 v 1

there is a third involving the feeder, which sees a scoring opportunity presented if the defender is overplaying the feeder denying him the pass he changes direction driving hard to the basket looking for a backdoor pass and uncontested layup. Diagram 4 First Cutter As the feeder receives the ball so the first cutter comes off the post man’s screen, as he does so he should be ready to do one of three things.

◆ First Rebound the feeders shot ◆ 2nd score off the feeders pass ◆ 3rd to facilitate the continuity of the offense

His first role is that of a rebounder in case the feeder takes an outside shot, secondly if the feeder has not made a move to the hoop the first cutter should expect the ball for a layup move. If He does not receive the ball he should continue through to the low post/corner and become the second cutter.

Diagram 4 2nd Cutter The second cutter lines up in the low post area or corner, as the first cutter makes his move off the post man, the second cutter releases up to the wing area level with the Post man

Having seen the first cutter go through and not receive the ball, the second cutter utilises the post man in the same manner as the first cutter did rubbing his man off the post as he makes a move to the hoop.

If he does not receive the ball he posts up on the opposite elbow to that of the post man, on the feeders side of the court.

Again the second cutter has three main responsibili- ties

◆ First Rebound the 1st cutters shot ◆ 2nd score off the feeders pass ◆3rd to facilitate the continuity of the offense Post Man

The Post man is basically a picking machine who sets up at the elbow of the key on the opposite side to the feeder and the same side as the first and second cutters. His job as a picking machine is to head hunt the 1st and 2nd cutters defensive man.

After he has set the first screen for the first cutter he must immediately think about setting a screen for the second cutter.

These two quick screens not only set up two opportunities to score, but also provide the continuity of the basic cut.

The Point

After the post man has made the second of his two screens, he must be alert and immediately think about a screen on his defensive man by the point.

This provides the post man with an excellent scoring opportunity from the foul line. if the Post does not receive the ball he “L” cuts to the foul line which is one of the most difficult moves to defend against.

The Post becomes the point man and provides the continuity of the basic cut offense.

The point having set the screen on the post rolls to the hoop looking for an inside pass from the feeder. If the point man does not receive the ball he steps out of the lane on the opposite side of the ball to set up in th elbow post area now becoming the second cutter

This completes the Basic Cut movement, and it is important that players realise where and when the scoring opportunities arise so that is becomes second nature, instinctive. The Split

Having learned the basic cut it is important to see the Split as an integral part of the Shuffle.

The Split offers a complete offense in itself and becomes potent when played with and mixed with the Basic Cut.

The key to the movement of the Split starts with the the pass from the point or first cutter to the post man.

After the post man receives the ball the first cutter head hunts the second cutter to set a legal screen. The second cutter fakes to go inside coming off the first cutters screen to receive the ball from the post man for a 10-15ft jump shot.

The first cutter having set the pick rolls to the hoop looking for the ball from the post inside under the hoop

On the other side of the court the point man and feeder interchange or the point sets a pick for the feeder to receive the ball at the top of the key for a long range shot or to provide continuity of the offense by swinging the ball to the wing and the new feeder

The point man having set the pick rolls to the basket looking for a skip pass under the basket, if he doesn't receive the ball he becomes the new feeder.

The post man after he receives the ball must pivot away from the passer toward the feeder looking for a backdoor opportunity presented to the feeder. The Post Man if the back door isn't on then follows through and then looks for the pass to the second cutter coming off the first cutters screen

If the post has an opportunity to drive to the hoop then he does so.

The second cutter with no shot option looks to pass the ball to the point and now becomes the first cutter in the basic cut, unless he passes the ball back to the post in which case he head hunts the new second cutters defensive man and so continue the split

The Split provides a load of positive opportunities and high scoring percentage shots. Greece

With the ball in the First Cutter Position, who happens to be a good perimeter shooter, we can run a play that will give him a shot in the corner whilst penetrating both scoring opportunities for others and also provide continuity and balance ont he Shuffle offence

With no passing opportunities for the first cutter to pass to the point or post or inside to the second cutter posting up in the low post.

The Second Cutter pops into the corner and receives a pass from the second cutter who cuts hard to the hoop looking for a give and go.

As the first cutter cuts to the hoop, the post man steps out to receive the ball in the wing area vacated by the first cutter.

The Second Cutter having passed the ball to the post man goes and head hunts the first cutters defensive man who has having reached the hoop does a “U”turn and comes off the second cutters pick into the corner to receive the ball and take the outside shot over the screen provided by the first cutter.

Two other options are the pass to the picker rolling to the hoop from the post man, or the pass to the picker rolling to the basket from the First Cutter having received the ball having come off the the pick. Princeton

As a variation, if none of the intro passes are available options become open. to the point man, namely passes to the feeder, Post and first cutter. backdoor by feeder drive to the hoop by dribble he can effect the princeton type move which i named shot off the screen made by the ballhandler after viewing Princetons offensive patterns. T h i s any of the feeds for split, corner shot, or basic cut involves the dribble towards the second cutter. just before he reaches the second cutter he comes to a to a two footed jump stop and hands the ball with the outside hand to the first cutter who dribbles across the court in the direction of the feeder who looks initial- ly to go back door (Princeton Backdoor) or replicates the receiving of the pass that the first cutter now with the ball did when he received it from the point This dribble weave continues until the following

Swing

If the pass options of Split, Basic Cut are not available, then the Point man can dribble in the direction of the feeder giving a hand signal to clear out.

This is the signal for the feeder, First and second cutters to rotate around the post who stays where he is.

So the point man becomes the feeder with the options the feeder has open to him, the first cutter becomes point, the second replaces first Cutter and feeder becomes second cutter.
