Offensive Objectives
Our
individual and team offensive rules are successful when each player
concentrates on each possession on taking care of the ball,
execution, and unselfish team play. We look to fast break at
every opportunity and always take the high percentage shot. We determine
the outcome of the game. We must believe in the system, our coaches, and
our teammates. Some points to remember:
o
Breakdown the defense by pushing
the ball, hitting the first open man, cuts, screens, drives and
communication.
o
Get the ball in the paint –
dribble penetration & passes.
o
Utilize transition, post play,
drive, cutters and offensive rebounds.
o
Shot discipline.
o
We take the shots we want; not
what the defense wants. We take rhythm shots. We emphasize lay-ups,
straight line drives and uncontested jump shots.
o
Board coverage
o
Crash the glass – 4 crash, 1
back.
o
Our goal is to make more free
throws than our opponents attempt.

Offensive Principles
o
ATTACK
the defense, whether in half-court or full-court situations. Get to the
foul line.

ROLE DEFINITION:
Know who you are. Handle ball with sureness. Hit the first open man.
Jump stops and easy passes. We take great shots.

Eyes on Rim, Post, Action. Be a threat to score.
o
MOVE WITHOUT THE BALL.
Be hard to guard…read defender and create scoring opportunities for
teammates. Move with a purpose. Maintain proper spacing.
o
POST MUST:
Show hands, show numbers, call for ball.

When SCREENING, head-hunt the
defender, set the screen and communicate all screens.
o
Post players are always looking
to seal (show your numbers) their defensive man.

Always know the TIME AND SCORE.

DRIBBLE
with your head up and see the court. Protect the ball. Don’t waste
your dribble. DRIBBLE ONLY WITH A PURPOSE.
o
Make the SAFE and EASY pass.
Don't force passes
o
Remember to always acknowledge
the passer after you score.
o
Make the JUMP STOP your weapon.

BALL SCREENS
are always an option. Pick & roll screener always goes to the basket.

ANTICPATE
and REBOUND all shots.

The shot-fake and backboard are
your friends – use them.
