- In this video, you will learn about a simple but highly effective motion offense action that will get you more points, the ZOOM ACTION. The Zoom action creates large gaps for the dribble drive and creates indecision for the defense, which are keys to a successful offense.
The Zoom Action has become very popular in the NBA and college levels, but its easy to teach and use at even the Youth level. Basketball Teams such as Northern Iowa and Loyola Chicago run motion offense centered around this specific action.

As a coach in Switzerland, I really enjoy inputs on the game in this kind of professional way to achieve targets in basketball games
So funny i'm also coaching in switzerland(st.gallen). Where are you coaching?
Great stuff! I can implement this into our Read and React offense.
Will implement this in my playbook this year
Going to incorporate this for the team I’m coaching atm. Will be interesting how it will create opportunities, aiming to keep it simple to let the players development grow and make correct reads and decisions before diving into more niche situations !
Great video! It inspired me to create a zoom action-based motion offense, with principles & rules. The PDF is also a huge help.
Have you created pdf yet?:)
You mind sharing the motion offense you created I would love to see and possibly use it.
Love the Horns version, put a good 3-point shooter at the opposite Elbow. 👌
OMG how haven’t I known about your channel earlier??? Tks so much for this insightful video. But the link in the description cannot be found, can you check it? Tk u so much again ❤
Maybe it's because I coach highschool not college so i'm missing something but it seems like a lot of these are just leading to contested shots being finished by great scorers beating their defenders. It does get the defence moving and lots of chances for bigs to seal or roll.
We are releasing a product with a high school coach tomorrow on the zoom offense. He won a state championship prior to installing it. And after he installed it, his offensive numbers actually even got better! He shows you an offensive variation that he uses with his middle school and JV teams as well. That way, you can build up to more freedom and advanced options. We're really excited about it! If you're interested, let us know. If not, no worries whatsoever.
@@BreakthroughBBall Im interested send the link please
I run it at the lower levels and I use a diamond formation with a backcut and 4-5 loop screen to start it so there’s other options and better spacing
@@BreakthroughBBallHi. I am interested in this
So around mid 2015 we began running this exact action with my AAU Squad and we called it “End Around”. The new concept really helped up create easy buckets. I had a few bigs that could boogie w the ball so that helped create match up nightmares for teams. Good stuff.
What do you think about this…instead of handing the ball off, the player curling around continues to curl right to the basket looking for the pass at the rim. Would that work?
@@murray8378 It’s not a bad idea. I’ve seen many variations.
@@murray8378yes it would!
This offense was popularized in Europe like two maybe three years ago I think, I was running this for the first time last year... It works, but it's best to stick to one set until the players are just able to play without being told what to do, then move on to the next set.
Also, I really like the Horns set we crushed a few teams with that set when the players made the right decision/reads...
Which are the most critical reads 1 before receiving the hand off or 2 after the handoff? Please elaborate on anything else you feel is important. Thanks
@@joelfaulk they're both equally important in IMO... how I ran it was simple,
-the corner player would backdoor on the over play forcing the defender to stay honest. The corner and elbow has to check the defense.
-if the defense switches on the first or second screen then we tried to slip the switch.. this worked sometimes but would cause confusion on offense for my team, it was more if a teaching tool in practice.
-if the chasing defender jumps to the the ball, the receiving player (corner player) slips to the basket, sometimes it worked sometimes it didn't ..
-if the on ball defender jumps to the ball he might be out of position so we can go to the basket try to draw the foul...
-if the DHO is complete we usually anticipated the double and wanted to create an advantage, if not the reads are pretty much the same in a PNR. I usually stuck my best shooter on the strong side help.
This was my way but we had high character guys that helped other players understand without bickering over responsibilities.
@@joelfaulk my players have a lot of freedom on offense I don't really teach them complex plays that too much for me, I like principles, they're simple and easy to understand..

Early Offense Dribble Handoff on the OPPOSITE SIDE of the court before going into this "action" at the opposite wing to implement wing-to-wing ball movement before the shot attempt.
Curious as to how you would drill this so that players know how to read defenses.
It’s the exact same action you get off of the Triangle when the ball goes to the top or the back door cut
Wasn't this called Pistol action a few years ago?
I recall Belmont running this action a lot for Rick Byrd.
Hi Brian,
Yes, this is similar to the Pistol action. You will find that some call it the Zoom Pistol or Pistol Zoom. Some things may be different but for the most part they are relatively the same.
@@BreakthroughBBall I thought Zoom was the same action, but off-ball. This is what I know as Pistol.
Cool video nonetheless.
What is the difference between Zoom action and Pistol?
I’m just not seeing how this adds much value to a simple handoff. I guess it can be argued any tiny advantage helps. It does have a cool name!
Would this work well against zone defense/s? Would you modify it in any way for zone?
Hi Christopher, it really depends on which kind of zone D your playing. If it would be a 2-3 Zone, you would use the main picks and move way from top of 3 point zone. Wing guys pick and roll down on wings gaps while playmaker find high post Spot in the middle of free throw line as a middle share out post. Then other wing will take over PG spot. Now baseline centers cross and pick each other to turn to the other side. Now you receive an option of a quick guard attacking the board midside or get a pass towards movement. Good chance to offense rebound and second point chances crushing the board and build up pressure to go full court defense on a opponements inbound after score.
@@brandonbetti4213 is there any write u can dm me a drawing out of the play u explain thanks so much for explaining !
I use a very basic form of this offense v man. V zone we play a zone offense and change it up depending on the zone. You may already know this. But these are two videos i like.

That's a pistol set. Not sure why everything needs to have 21 (pun intended) different names.
Yeah. When I first came across the Zoom action, I thought the same thing. And this has been a common response or question we’ve received. However, there are subtle differences. Here is how the website Coach’s Clipboard described the Pistol action:
“The point guard may dribble at a wing player and use the wing player's screen, or make a dribble hand-off to the wing. Or the point guard may pass to the wing, and follow the pass to the wing (with several options thereafter - ball-screen, return dribble hand-off, clear-out, etc). The post player usually sets flare-screens or ball-screens for O1 or O2. Of course you can run this on the left side as well with O1 and O3.”
