  • The Shuffle Offense
    24_018_022 30-05-2007 13:10 Pagina 18 FIBA EUROPE COACHES - OFFENSE THE SHUFFLE OFFENSE by Lindsay Gaze After an excellent career as a profes- sional player (he played at three edition of the Olympic Games and at two FIBA World Championships in the '60s), Lindsay Gaze has coached the Australian national team in four consecutive edi- tions of the Olympic Games (1972, 1976, 1980 and 1984) and of three FIBA World Championships (1974, 1978 and 1982). In 1985, he became head coach of the Melbourne Tigers, where he stayed until 2005, winning two Australian title and three titles of "Coach of the Year". I had the chance to meet outstanding coaches, who have influenced my philoso- phy of the game and coaching methods. One of the most significant pieces of ad- vice was to select a style of play, learn from others, who have similar points of view and stick with it. When I took over coaching the Mel- bourne Tigers I adopted similar methods, although many refinements have been made as the skills and athleticism of play- ers have developed incredibly since then. The national teams I coached used the same methods as my club teams, but in each case the points of emphasis would vary depending on the talent available. The Melbourne Tigers shuffle offense re- quires every player to be capable of play- ing every position and it is not unusual for the power forwards and centers to be playing the same roles usually reserved for guards. It has been argued that moving the big players away from the basket re- duces their rebounding potential and high percentage scoring opportunities, but equally it can create problems for oppo- nents, who, in many cases, is unfamiliar with defending on the perimeter.

  • Lindsay Gaze 1 While I Was Playing at Our National and International Level
    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.
