If you ever have a chance to go on Synergy and binge-watch any team in college basketball for offensive research purposes, I highly recommend digging through the Lafayette Leopards and their head coach Fran O'Hanlon. For nearly 30 years, the Leopards under the tutelage of O'Hanlon, ran offenses well ahead of their time. Having been a product of both playing and coaching overseas, O'Hanlon's offenses were always built on strong passing and cutting games and featured a ton of great actions for shooters. This book contains 71 sets total, ranging from his base offense to different off-screen actions and post-ups, as well as his stapled Iverson cut series. In terms of zone offense, the Leopards primarily relied on player movement during his tenure, often matching a front and playing out of it. There are some great sideline and baseline out-of-bounds sets in here as well that can instantly be applied to your team, or kept in your back pocket for late-game situations.

In the last 10 years, the Creighton Bluejays have consistently had some of the best offensive teams in college basketball. They consistently place in the top of every major offensive category and can attack defenses inside-out as well as in pick-and-roll and off-screen games. Aside from excellent post play and perimeter shooting, at the heart of this is their head coach Greg McDermott who has been one of the most diverse and creative offensive minds on any level. Year in and year out, the Bluejays have a diverse playbook with multiple continuities and a vast range of half court sets. This playbook includes the following:

-Transition offense sets

-Continuity & Flow

-Man Offense/After Time Out Plays

-Zone Offense

-Out of Bounds Sets

Out of the 68 sets in this book, there is a wide range of them that can be catered to your personnel this season. 

Rodrigo Pastore and Niners Chemnitz consistently have one of Europe's most diverse playbooks. Since coming to Niners, Pastore has them climbing steadily throughout Basketball Bundesliga, and this year, they are poised to make a run at the German cup. What is impressive about their offense is the simplicity and manipulation of several concepts. This playbook is great for any coach looking to incorporate shuffle offense quick hitters, as well as some basic pro concepts.
