The morph from 1-3-1 zone to 2-3 zone sometimes acts as runway to shoot the passing lanes

Here’s a perfect example of that

"The Post Pit"

One of my favorite post breakdown drills

Sealing, Catching, Finishing

Box BLOB vs m2m or zone

It’s nice to call a play and with only slight screening tweaks it functions against either man or zone

Circle Motion Offense is 5-out spacing with completely interchangeable positions...

Makes it easy to FIGHT PRESSURE

3 of the methods:
1️⃣ Down screen exchange 🎥
2️⃣ Back cut & fill
3️⃣ Dribble at backdoor

John Wooden’s three rules for players:

1. No profanity

3. Never be late

The baseline stays clear in the 5-High Ghost Offense

Your guards will feast on the reject rip option

The “Basic” ball screen in Cricle Motion

Typically, this is a roll and shake, but I like the ability to pop as well

Could even flare the ball screener from the corner 🤔

An overload is great against a zone…

But ball screening INTO the overload is even better

In the Tandem 2-3 Zone, cushion the high post instead of denying it

This allows for better coverage of the three-point line

And forces teams to confront the mid-possession switch into man-to-man by the defense

The Flex Offense is built on two core actions:

1️⃣ The baseline flex cut
2️⃣ The down screen for the screener

Roll and replace into Euro Ball Screen? I like

Backdoor the Iverson cut

High quality execution/timing

It's hard to quantify the psychological toll of the Press Virginia Defensive System

Trauma inducing

End of quarter concept:

Show zone, go man

Merging The Flex, Skip Opposite, and Zoom action

Gorgeous

Coming off the stagger in "Bear," players have a shot/drive read

In this clip, we read drive

If neither option is there, reverse the ball quickly and run the same action (which is the continuity element of "Bear")
December 11, 2025 at 8:00 PM
Zone sets... 4 of them
December 11, 2025 at 6:00 PM
OK, now that was sneaky

And the pass deserves a second look - delivered on time and on target under heavy ball pressure

5 traditions to grow your 🏀 program’s CULTURE

1\ Victory Song

Every time you win a game your team gets to “sing the song” in the locker room to celebrate

It’s a silly thing, but I’m telling you, everyone looks forward to it

Master this sequence to defeat zones

🏀 Enter short corner
🏀 Dive the high post
🏀 Form a triangle on the back side

Nearly unstoppable

Using a 1-4 Low to enter the Flex, you get this natural duck in counter

The standard entry flashing to the weak side elbow converts the spacing into 4 around 1

If you want to be able to put your opponent on their heels...

Trapping ball screens is something to consider
