Dan Hurley is arguably the best coach in college basketball right now. In this coaching clinic, Hurley shares the team defensive principles for his two-time national championship UConn Huskies team.
When I first starting hearing coaches talk about conceptual offense, I remember thinking, “Yeah, but how do you get the players to know what to do next?” The answer lies in teaching players to understand and execute “triggers” within the offense.
Here’s how to do just that…
(more…)In Dean Oliver’s book, Basketball on Paper, he identified what he called “The Four Factors for Basketball success.” These four key factors significantly impact a team’s ability to win games: shooting, rebounding, turnovers, and free throws.
(more…)Years ago, Kelvin Sampson decided that in order for his team to take the next step, they needed to create an identity. The result was the establishment of the “Core Four” – pick and roll defense, post trapping, transition defense, and offensive spacing.

The offseason is here, which means it’s time to roll that VertiMax back out of the storage closet and get to work!
Already, some have contacted me this spring about ideas for VertiMax workouts to improve players’ vertical jump. If you haven’t already, I’d encourage you to download the VertiMax training app. On it, you’ll find both free and paid content. In the free content is a virtual clinic describing and demonstrating how I use the VertiMax to improve physical skills and basketball skills in the off-season months.

In the meantime, here’s a workout to get you started improving the vertical jump of your players…
(more…)If you’ve followed me for a while, you know I love using sets with consecutive actions. Not only are they hard to guard, but you almost always end up with more than one scoring opportunity. For those of you who are 5-Out coaches, here are a couple 5-Out options designed with those consecutive actions…
(more…)Have you ever studied to see what back-to-back drives does to the flow and effectiveness of your offense? If you haven’t, check this out…
Attacking gaps with the dribble is foundational in most conceptual offenses. However, like anything else, you can have too much of a good thing. Radius Athletics’ Randy Sherman and A Quick Timeout Podcast’s Tony Miller break down the impact of double drives within your offense.
(more…)In your offense, what are the other 3 (or 4) perimeter players doing on a drive to the basket? Standing still? Cutting? Circle movement?
A simple way to improve your conceptual offense is to coordinate the movements of players as the ball is moved via dribble or pass. Two of those simple movements are included in the concepts of headlights and taillights.
(more…)Recently, I shared 3 small-sided games (SSGs) we use with our players to accelerate their improvement on the defensive end. This time, we’ll look at the offensive side of the ball.
(more…)Want your team playing with better pace? Looking to up your PPP (points per possession) this coming season?
Radius Athletics’ Randy Sherman and A Quick Timeout Podcast’s Tony Miller explain how playing like the pros can increase your pace of play on the offensive end.
(more…)Do you have a separate out-of-bounds playbook for man-to-man defense and zone defenses? Don’t waste the time and frustration teaching your players a whole new set of plays for each defensive scheme! Coach Ido Singer explains how to take your existing OOBs plays and tweak things to score against zone defenses.
(more…)More and more coaches are making 3-on-3 a staple of their basketball practices, and for good reason. Increased reps, more space to experiment, fewer factors to pay attention to for coaches (which can lead to improved feedback), and ability to focus on specific parts of your offensive and defensive systems are just a few of the reasons to incorporate these small-sided games (SSGs) into your regular routines.
(more…)During this past season, it seemed like every college and NBA team had their variation on Spain action. Some teams kept it simple with a middle ball screen followed by the typical back screen. Others flow into Spain out of transition. Here are a couple ideas for your team from the Dallas Mavericks and Kentucky Wildcats.
(more…)Experimenting with a new ball screen defense in addition to your primary strategy could have huge benefits for your team.
What is your team’s primary method for defending a ball screen? I asked that question via Twitter poll.
(more…)With the off-season here, small group workouts become even more important to the development of your players’ individual skills. Instead of exclusively practicing stand-still shooting or random off-the-dribble shooting, why not use the summer months to improve both your team shooting and your offensive system as a whole?
(more…)Bob McKillops’ Davidson Wildcats consistently rank in the top 30 in offensive efficiency at the Division I level. Based on player movement, screening and decision making, the Wildcats’ motion offense puts constant pressure on defenses.
(more…)5-Out Offense is all the rage these days. With today’s players’ skills and an overall emphasis on spacing, ball movement and player movement, 5-Out Offense provides opportunities for every player on the court to contribute on the offensive end.
Here are two adjustments to make as defenses evolve to take away actions within your normal 5-Out Offense.
(more…)What happens with the four other players on offense when the ball is passed into the post? Do you avoid throwing the ball into the post altogether? Post feeds are a great way to invert your offense and run actions on the perimeter to open up players for scoring opportunities.
(more…)Player Evaluation Form
So, what’s the plan for your team this offseason? Surely it’s more than, “get better,” right?
Ultimately, the improvement of your team lies in the off-season improvement of your individual players. But the plan has to be more specific than just “get better.” Players need to know what skills are needed for them, and your team, to have success this coming season. That all starts with a well thought-out player evaluation plan.
(more…)Old timers, like myself, would tell you, “You don’t need a play call to back door somebody. When your defender turns his head or overplays the passing lane, back cut.” Even in today’s game, that’s a read every player should be taught to make. However, with many teams today moving away from denial, in-the-passing-lane defensive systems and to gap systems, it can be harder to get “back door” opportunities in the natural flow of your offense… which is why you’re seeing teams use set plays to create burn cuts (i.e., “back doors”).
(more…)For years, Duke’s Mike Krzyzewski has used a variety of sets to maximize the skill sets of his stars. This year has been no different. And while much of the 2021-22 season saw the Blue Devils primarily playing out of basic concepts (i.e., ball screens, drive and kicks, etc.) in the half court, Krzyzewski has leaned on his Horns playbook in the first four games on this year’s NCAA Tournament. Let’s go inside the XsOs.

A tendency toward action bias can at times lead basketball coaches and players astray, undermining short and long term progress.
Coaches are hard workers. One does not ascend the coaching ladder of success without long hours and commitment to the job. There is even a term assigned to this phenomenon – grinding.
But is all of this “grinding” necessary? Or does much of it come from a tendency humans have towards action bias? Coaches and players alike can succumb to the pitfalls of a cognitive bias called action bias, but being aware of them may help.

Optimism Bias can lead to unrealistic expectations, disappointment and emotional turmoil for coaches who do not guard against it.
There are numerous cognitive biases – or mistakes in reasoning – humans are susceptible to. Coaches can and do fall prey to these biases as well. One such bias is the optimism bias and failure to guard against it can lead to unrealistic expectations and disappointment.

Cognitive Bias In Coaching: Thoughts on avoiding the pitfalls of Outcome Bias for basketball coaches, teams and players.
“But Coach, I made it…”
The above phrase is one that many coaches have heard before. The lessons of shot selection are often lost on players after a favorable outcome follows a subpar decision. This is one example of a common cognitive bias called Outcome Bias.

Coaches: Is Choice-Supportive Bias plaguing your ability to make good decisions and move on from bad ones? Here’s how to spot and defeat it.
As coaches, we have all made decisions that we have come to regret. During preseason planning you may be excited about an offense, defense or lineup you have selected. You spend early season practices preparing your team to carry out the strategies you chose.
(more…)Earlier this season I listened to Eric Mussleman speak to his team on the importance of contesting shots. He referenced the 2015-16 NBA season to explain why the distance of your closeout on a shot makes all the difference. He said that defensive FG% was lower as shots were contested closer. You can hear him talk to his team in the YouTube video at the end of this post.

While attending the NABC Coaches Convention a few years back, I was intrigued when I saw the session titled, “The Analytical Edge: Underutilized Strategies to Increase Win Percentage,” presented by Frank Dehel of Dribble Handoff.
(more…)There is incredible value in running sets with multiple actions, and the options are nearly endless – here’s a few to get you started.
For those who read the companion blog post on plays with consecutive actions, you may have already begun tweaking your playbook to include a few more of these types of sets. Before you get too far into finalizing things, here’s one more suggestion…
(more…)String together consecutive actions to creates advantages by forcing the defense to make back-to-back quick decisions.
During my second year as a college assistant coach, we had a Division I point guard transfer into our small program. His skill in the pick and roll was quickly apparent, not just to our staff, but also to our opponents. In just the first few games, the typical high ball screen became less and less effective as teams would adjust their defense to force our ball handler to give up the basketball.
