Zoom action: sets, options & counters (video & PDF. 120+ sets)

Description

The "zoom" action, a down screen directly followed by a hand-off - also known as "Chicago" action -, has become very popular amongst coaches all over the world. Designed to give momentum to an offensive player and create scoring options, it can be run to start a set, as a bridge between the beginning and the final action, or even as the target action. And of course, it can be used for misdirection too. Discover many of these options in this course, which includes more than 120 clips of high level teams from all around the world plus a downloadable PDF playbook including the 50 most interesting sets!

ZOOM action (HandOff or Dribble HandOff) is global basketball trend. it changes defensive 'rules' and is hard to guard. Coach Kalogeropoulos made a huge collection of ZOOM systems from NBA, NCAA and European basketball in this excellent video course.

Tons of creative actions, counters, and innovations from teams across the globe with the zoom action. Clear cut footage that isn't 'choppy' or 'lagging'. Easy to view and clear to read PDF included. Amazing content
