I'm back to coaching since pre-pandemic and I have been struggling to get my players to understand this concept. This just kicked my basketball brain back into alignment. Thanks.
@@sheldonbeiler1028 Since 8 rules is a lot to focus on, I'd focus on a group of them at a time then gradually add them together. It is important they understand the concepts of cut after screen and following the ball.
Always helpful to teach youngsters to jump towards ball on defense .run a 4 0n 4 shell 2 guard front 2 wings freethrow extended. Rotate ball around horn. Teach pistol positions. Every pass, jump towards ball.weakside help ALL THE WAY into paint. From there teach dribble penetration and help recovery..I found this drill quickest for kids to pick up
Yo I’m right there. I go from being THE COACH to being just a coach. I’ve been out of touch. But I’m here searching for it at all aspects of the game again
I like everything except the drive left move left. I would say drive left move right and look for 5 coming backside. Then if nothing is there, 3 can continue to the left corner and 5 pop back to the right corner. Drive left move left is a lot of extra running for 3 to go back to the right corner and also 1 position coming all the way around to the top wing to fill in and also running into 3 when they're both cutting to the same block!?
I’m currently coaching a team of 6-7 year olds and our biggest struggle is offensive flow. I want to implement something like this without making it over complicated. I already started with a base triangle formation. Do you have any videos that show a hybrid triangle/motion offense? Thanks
Quick question. With the drive left move left vice versa. Does the cutter and the driver ever get in a situation where they run into eachother, where the cutter impedes the driving lane of the driver?
That can happen if the cutter doesn't clear the driving lane in time. If the cutter was originally in the corner but can't move left fast enough, they can A.) take a step forward to the short corner, or B.) wait until the driver goes by & run behind the driver.
Only think I don't like about the 5 out is it takes my bigger guys away from the basket for post play and rebounds. How do you remedy that with the 5 out principle??
@@danhill150 I'm not following where the taller kid will go. Are you saying the drill sends 4 to the boards and one goes to the backcourt to guard the fast break/get a kick-out from the offensive rebound?
@@reachdaapex I send one back to defend transition. It's worked for us (haven't needed the traditional 2 yet). In the past we've ran a lot of 2-3, so one of my guards was always my "get back," this year we can do more man, so we've been working on one of the top spots getting back regardless who it is.
They have mastered it, yes, and I don't believe there is anyone even close. If you haven't seen this video, it's a fantastic introduction to these concepts at a very advanced stage. Fun basketball for sure! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T2T4bJh165g.html
while helping to build shooting form and confidence from close, and mid-range, and further. Focus on them making layups. including how to get offensive rebounds for short range putbacks. Make sure they at least know how to pass and catch, and do simple jumpstops and pivoting.
If no threat from perimeter shots, a tighter zone defense easily clogs cuts and traps those trying to penerate. If can shoot, need 2+ pass ball movement to spread defense.
