1 of my favorite #TransitionGames to work on transition O/D, decision-making, passing, & more!
Continuous fast break from 2v1 all the way up to 5v5. Some coaches start this game with D1 shooting a FT & O1/O2 as rebounders.

Defensive Identity Questions
— Michael Lynch (@CoachLynch_21) August 11, 2024
1. What is your overarching Mission on Defense?
2. What Teaching Points will you Emphasize?
3. How will hold your players accountable?
Your players will not know what you value on the defensive end unless you lay it out for them daily.
