Players also cant conceptualize the amount of time they have the ball in their hands in a game. They think its exponentially more than it actually is. The ball is glorified and rightfully so but what are we doing with the other 95% Do be ELITE REQUIRES impacting the game without the basketball.

"🚨 Tim Duncan - Short Roll 🚨 The Spurs were one of the first teams to consistently PUNISH aggressive PnR coverages. This led to teams switching/playing positionless at a really high rate. They were also one of the first teams since the 80s to win consistently without playing a heliocentric style (during the peak of the heliocentric era). Pops innovation without the advanced analytics of todays game was truly remarkable. There is power in touching the basketball. - Popovich"

"🚨 If you INITIATE your OFFENSE through: Floppy try a RIP screen. DHO try a 'Get'. Back cut try a wide pin. Wide pin try a zoom. Low entry try a guard on the low block. Spread PNR try the guard setting the screen/big handling (inverted PNR). 'Away action' try a flare screen/slip. Take any offense and invert the initial action (like 'forwards out' Princeton). This teaches read and react spacing templates and is extremely tough to guard. Simply cue for the counters can be thumbs and thumbs down. Fun way to coach fun way to play engages the creative part of the brain and forces learning through"

"Pick and roll is evolving. Historically we've seen a lot of pre screen motion such as the 'ram' into ball screen or 'stack' templates typically to hunt matchups or to get the ball handler down hill quickly. But in [----] the aim of most ball screens at higher levels is to the manipulate the tagger post crack. This is due to aggressive and passive ball screen coverages such as triple switching blitzing and drop that aim to force the analytically favorable mid range shots for the defense. THIS IS USUALLY DONE IN [--] WAYS: - Vertical manipulation of the tagger through actions like 'Spain or Finland'"

"Defensive Language to add 👇🏼 DEAD HELP is late quiet and stiff. ACTIVE HELP is early loud and agile. QUIET TEAMS are bad teams. The PALMS OF YOUR HANDS create an illusion of shrinking the floor. LOCK LOW if you're not a shot blocker on the offensive rebound. Single gaps are meant to be OCCUPIED or STUNTED at. CHANGE OF PACE is equally as important as a defender. STRAIGHT LINE PASSES are the most indicative eye test of a poor defense. MID RANGE + MOVING IN MUD = W's Stopping the offense 3x in a row 7x is the most POWERFUL STAT A DEFENSE CAN HARNESS.

Players also cant conceptualize the amount of time they have the ball in their hands in a game. They think its exponentially more than it actually is. The ball is glorified and rightfully so but what are we doing with the other 95% Do be ELITE REQUIRES impacting the game without the basketball.

"Jon Scheyer and games based approach to development. Most coaches have THEORETICALLY attempted to do this for years. But coaches like Jordan Ott Kenny Atkinson Erik Spoelstra Daigneault etc. are paving the way at the professional level. In [----] I stumbled upon the @BBallImmersion podcast. It opened Pandoras Box for me. I think every coach needs to go through a few paradigms shifts throughout their career to dial in what they are and what they want to be as coach. @hoopherald"

"From an ANALYTICS perspective shooting out of the post is actually very inefficient. BUT Passing out of the post is one of the most efficient actions in half court basketball.

"Zeljko Obradovic is WIDELY regarded as one of if not the greatest offensive mind ever. Greg Popovich is directly quoted as saying I steal ALOT of plays from him. So many staples in todays game were being ran by Obradovic [--] + years ago. He teaches very conceptually within a structured system.

"Both Purdue and Alabama are very analytically based programs. But both win the PPP in VERY different ways. Bama was + [--] in total [--] points made; Nate Oats is arguably the best in the country in terms of shot quality. BUT Purdue has the ultimate double edged sword- Oboard % + Braden Smith in PnR. Much of their rebounding success comes from the opposition blitzing or shocking Smith. The short drop gives them an organic [--] on [--] advantage where the low man has to disengage from their big. They had just over 3x the offensive boards last night than Alabama did with [--]. If you dont put two on the"

"Tommy Lloyd is the best coach the average fan has never heard of. From the Mark Few pipeline (and offensive architect for the Zags) his ingenuity around the ball screen continuity is incredible. Most of my personal systems are derived from what he runs. EOG offense - Spread with a shallow cut into a zoom action. Beautiful tag removal 👇🏼 @MarchMadnessMBB"

"CLAP BACKS = Scoring in transition off of a MAKE. This is a Rick Carlisle special. Clap backs are extremely deflating for the opposition. If you can combine 7-8 clap backs with 4-5 kills (3 stops in a row) you will be nearly impossible to beat that night.

"At the youth level dribble drive offense is one of the best ways to teach kids the game. It emphasizes spacing push/pull relationship off of penetration and creating double and triple gaps. Naturally this teaches read and react vs a script. I think its easy to fall in love with sets because they often work well at that age but lost in translation is simply playing the game. DDM is used at every level for example Kentucky and the principles transcend every system they will encounter in the future. 🎥 @EricFawcett_ https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2017727990164308198"

"Sticky Words Sunday THE SAME ACTION WITH MULTIPLE SOLUTIONS MULTIPLE ACTIONS WITH ONE SOLUTION. Sets are dependant on COVERAGES. As a general rule concepts come before sets in terms of development and overall game play. This simply means that if you cant make a decision based on the coverage the action will typically only work once or twice. Conversely as coaches using sets that weve seen online/from other teams are only effective if we know the coverage and coverage solutions they should be implemented against. For example- Real Madrid uses a Horns flare and a Horns flare twist to counter"

"Heavy ball screen teams (Bs continuity Spread Pistol etc.) need to have an EMPTY REJECT counter to keep the defense from loading/blowing up the screen. Charlotte and Charles Lee do this incredibly at the NBA level. Bill Self does this incredibly well by FLIPPING ball screens at the D1 level. Our iteration out of pistol is to empty the strong side with a FLOPPY TOUCH and then into a reject depending on the POA defenders hips. Weakside ideally replaces/flares to remove the tag.
