Purposeful play gets quality shots in crunch time. Imagine a situation such as tie score, ten seconds, advancing the ball, no timeouts.
Tailor the plan to team strengths and exploitable weakness of opponents. Show your club film of model execution.
Have a specific plan to get a quality shot by whom you want, where you want, and when you want. You probably don't want the shot taken "early" giving your opponent another opportunity. Perhaps you favor a drive to setup a foul, a spread ball screen ball screen, or a back door cut against pressure defense. Our team needs an automatic or default action.
Fall back to "great offense is multiple actions." Why not use an "early offense" that has multiple options? If we practice a "default" regularly, we should perform it at a higher level than freelance.
Think of 1-4 high as "horns like" with good spacing and no default help side. Entry to either post sets up cutting, screening, and isolation.
- Give-and-go with the point guard
- Helpside screening
- Back cut from the ball side
- Isolation for the post
