Could you almost take a blocker/mover approach to this and have your 4 and 5 be permanent pin down screeners? Then your 1, 2, and 3 are constantly running the dribble handoff? Also, your weak side screener could flare screen for the weak side guard to the corner as the handoff side is attacking down hill off the handoff screen, Creating a hammer action and potential three on the weak side. I haven’t watched the whole video yet so you may talk about this later on but just wanted to get your thoughts. You think something like that would have a good flow to it with there being two designated screeners?
yes, technically, you could. Interesting thought. I like to rotate kids in all positions and not give them specific roles. If I had more time in a gym, I might consider that option.
@ Thanks for replying. Putting in the Blocker/Mover offense from Tony Bennett helped an underdog team I was coaching make it to the state championship. Ever since then I have been sold. Taking your blitz offense and adapting it to a b/m system seemed like a great compliment to my base b/m offense. Just wanted to get your opinion so thank you!
Wondered the same thing. I could adjust it to have the bigs wait for the weakside guard to come around and execute a second dribble handoff and roll. Or have a better ball-handler start in the corner spot. I sort of like the 4 out-1 in version of Mark Pope's BYU offense where he has bigs either lifting for zoom action, or staying on the block after rolling in his continuous offense. I have 3 good ball handlers and 2 weak ball-handling taller kids this year in 8th/9th grade girls, so was thinking of ways to do this effectively with them. I'll definitely use the "I got top" communication.
If your players attack off the DHO to the basket but get stopped and kick to the corner, how do you tell them to get back into the continuous zoom action?
1. If the kick out occurs, I encourage drive right away (or shoot depending on if that person is a shooter) 2. The passer, after the pass is made to the corner, can do a rim cut and fill opposite of the pass - just like you would teach in a 5-out motion offense. Everyone else rotate. 3. On that rotation, we are teaching to be heavy on weakside to create a triple gap between wing and corner (where the ball is). As the corner person drives, we fill in behind, attack the boards. One person calls out - I got top and they stay at the top of the key for a kick out or transition defense (I send 4 to the boards). Hope that helps.
