  • Coaches Win Practice, Players Win Games
    Coaches Win Practice, Players Win Games Embracing the Princeton Offense in the NBA’s Small Ball Era David Kenah It’s no secret to anyone that watched the NBA playoffs this year – the league continues to embrace a new style of play. Almost every team in the playoffs went small at some point in their respective playoff series. While small ball used to be commonly known as having a traditional center playing alongside a stretch 4-man, or pick & pop player, it has continued to evolve into the idea of simply playing four traditional smalls around one traditional center. The thought process behind this style of play is mainly to space the floor and play spread pick & roll basketball. Spread pick & roll is a simple offense that is virtually un-guardable verse some of the best players in the game; Elite guards (see: Stephen Curry) combined in a pick & roll with skilled bigs (see: Draymond Green) and 3 other offensive players spaced behind the 3-point line ready to shoot or attack a closeout. It’s come to dominate the game of basketball at the pro level. While this strategy can result in great success for the most talented teams, it can be tougher to execute effectively with lesser talented teams. NBA defenses are so well trained in pick & roll defense and isolation defense that it’s become much too easy to defend most teams, leading to stagnant possessions and contested jump shots far too often. In this small ball evolution, many teams have overlooked traditional basketball actions within their offense: chin cuts, backdoor cuts, split actions, flare screens, etc.
