Hey Coach,
​
I have a new playbook that I am putting out: ​ UCONN Huskies Playbook
​
It's everything that Danny Hurley has run with the UCONN Huskies on their way to a National Championship this year.
​
The UCONN Huskies finished 31-8 and ranked third in offense for the season in the Ken Pom rankings.
​
This National Championship Playbook is very deep just like the UCONN Huskies team.


Here are three different ways that UCONN runs their offense
​
Danny Hurley believes that their set plays create their offense and I would have to totally agree. ​ 

We start off with one of UConn’s most used plays for Adama Sanogo in the post.
​
1.  Here is a unique way to get a quick high-low set play. ​ 
​

The play starts with two players crisscrossing each other to opposite sides of the floor.

Sanago sets a slight pin down right for #3 Joey Calcaterra, and then immediately ducks in his man.

The goal of the play is go right inside to their big man; Sanogo off hi-low action with a wrinkle.

It's a very popular play to get the big man the ball in the middle third of the court.


2.  Tons of Stagger Screens

UConn uses a lot of off-ball screening action in their offense, most notably for Jordan Hawkins and Joey Calcaterra.

In their transition offense, they almost always start their possessions with staggered screens.

They use a ton of sets that they get into if the stagger doesn't immediately get them a shot.

3.  Fantastic Ball Movement & Player Movement in their set plays

They love to start out with a staggered screen on one side immediately followed by a staggered screen on the other side.

This is great action!

They disguise their set plays very well.  Most of their stagger series is run off counters.

You will notice that the last two plays look very similar, but with different results.

Here is what you get with this Video Basketball Playbook!

• 124 Basketball Plays that are drawn up for you! 

• 216 Basketball Videos for you! 

• You have anywhere from 1-5 videos clips of the same play from different times during the season.

As of 2024, there has been an unprecedented growth in the popularity of basketball due to talking heads everywhere and on social media!  Seems like everyone has a “take” on something..EVERY SINGLE DAY!!

From the youth leagues, to schools, summer camps, AAU, personal trainers, colleges, WNBA, NBA, FIBA, and players and teams from over 70 different countries, people are simply FASCINATED WITH HOOPS!!

100 FUNNY THINGS WE “hate” ABOUT BASKETBALL is Volume One, chosen from hundreds of short generational things, from “back in the day” to just yesterday! 🤣🏀

Herb Welling and “Crazy George" Schauer have been everywhere and have seen and heard just about everything that is both creative and humorous at the same time!

Whether you are a basketball coach, player, fan, or casual follower of Pop Culture, you will find at least some of our 100 entries hilarious enough to talk about as well!

We didn’t just make this stuff up!

Hahaha!

Enjoy!

I have covered how to implement "No Middle" Defense in the past so it's only fitting that I show you how to attack "No Middle Defense through video clips and Fast Draw Diagrams which you can download.
​
​
The strength of the "No Middle" Defense is its ability to dictate terms, forcing the offense into penetrations that the defense is prepared for in advance.
​
Knowing how the defense will help and how they will rotate actually provides a clearer understanding of exposing the weaknesses in this defense.
​
This knowledge allows the offense to occupy space, tweak driving areas, and play the cuts to make early, long closeouts and force the defense to scramble.
​
​
The offense needs to encourage more penetration from the slots (drives from the slot down the land line or over the middle.
​
The defense wants to forces everyone to the baseline so it's aided by the lack of space. ​ ​ If you move the penetration up higher and grab a piece of the paint. ​ Everything gets a lot easier.
​
​
Here is an idea on how to attack from the slots with two drives over the top!
​

​
​
​
If the slot drive works in attacking two people with the ball, then the ball-hander has more options to pivot in space and find the open person.
​

​
Another way to attack is to put the ball on one side of the floor, all the defense to load up their baseline help and quickly skip the ball to force a closeout.
​
It takes a lot of work to make a "No Middle" defense work and punish their coverage.
​
Teams have to be disciplined in what they do and how they make their cuts & drives.
​
You want to force "multiple" close-outs for the defense to break!
​
Here are some more ways that you can attack the "No Middle" defense:
​
Baseline Attacks
Baseline Skips
Baseline Pull-ups
Backdoors
Clear Corners
DHO's
Fill Behinds
Middle Ball-Screens
Pin-down Screens
Post-ups
Seal the help,
Attack middle anyways
​
and Set Plays....

The UConn Offense 2023-24: A Masterclass in Complexity and Efficiency
​
Danny Hurley took the reins of the UCONN Huskies Basketball program and his vision when beyond just winning. ​ He wanted a TRANSFORMATION!
​
Look at how the 2023-24 season went and the UCONN Huskies transformed into one of the most complex & efficient offenses in college basketball.
​
When Coach Hurley came off his first National Championship in the 2022-23 season, He decided to tear up the playbook over the summer. ​ ​ 
​
A very different move!
​
​
Why the Change?
​
Danny Hurley and Luke Murray knew that they couldn't rest on the 1st National championship.
​
Given scouting and how defensive schemes adapt over a year, they decided to rip it all up. ​ Paranoia will do that.
​
Hurley tore up the old playbook and crafted an even deeper, more intricate offensive glossary—each term denoting a new play, alignment, or layered action. 
​
How they cut, screen, and move gives the UCONN Huskies a definite unprecedented advantage on defenses every time that they hit the floor.
​
How They Changed the Offense for 2023-24
​
Danny Hurley's new offensive scheme featured on an off-ball screen heavy system with advanced European basketball concepts which put UCONN in a rare space.
​
 With sets as intricate as “14 jet zoom pitch twin” (a sequence Hurley uses as an example), UConn layers screen after screen, cut after cut, leaving defenses in reactive chaos. 
​
This constantly multi-layered moving style isn't just hard to defense. ​ It's almost impossible to scout!

​
Take a typical possession: sharpshooter Cam Spencer starts the play with a pass and gets a chin screen, loops around, and sets a back screen for another player. Opponents scramble to keep up, and just when they think they’ve figured out the play, Spencer runs into a stagger screen, opening up a lane for a jumper. Each move builds on the previous one, creating an offense that’s more like a “choose-your-own-adventure” than a set play.
​
​
​
The Results: The Most Efficient Offense in College Basketball
​
What you have is an almost impossible to scout offense....
​
Position- less Movement: Players frequently cut, screen, and move, creating a fluid and versatile flow.
​
Off-Ball Screening as an Art Form: Each screen sets off a chain reaction, creating constant mismatches and opening scoring opportunities.
​
Pace and Precision: ​ UCONN tries to use their patience in the back-court while striking fast in transition, making them in the top 10 in transition and half-court efficiency.
​
​
Intelligent Reads and Countermoves: In practice, UConn dedicates significant time to decision-making against different defensive schemes, especially switching defenses, which they counter with slips, false actions, and relentless off-ball movement.
​
Every component of this offense leads to shot selection that is among the smartest in college basketball.
​
​
UConn's ability to stretch defenses in both transition and set plays has transformed their offense into an unstoppable force.
​
The final proof? 
​
The results in March Madness tell you everything! ​ Double-digit wins across their last 11 NCAA games, as Coach Hurley and his team dismantle defenses, possess by possess. 
​
As Coach Hurley’s reputation grows, so does the likelihood of a UConn dynasty built on offensive mastery.

I like Purdue’s chances…especially after reading this

Hey Coach,

Well, as they say, “changes are afoot” in college coaching circles…

When I read about John Beilein’s decision to leave Michigan and take the Cleveland job, I just shook my head.

It just didn’t make much sense to me…

Why leave a program that’s in the hunt for a national title for one that is…well, going to need some “returning” to say the least?

I will say this though, Matt Painter’s job just got a little easier.

Fact.

With Beilein out of the picture and Purdue now a perennial contender in March, I’m liking the Boilermaker’s chances going forward.

Painter now has 3 Big Ten titles and 5 Sweet 16 Appearances in 11 trips to the NCAA Tournament (including 3 in a row).

I don’t know about you, but I put him in the top 3 active coaches.

With that in mind, I did some digging and got my hands on something…

I have the Purdue Boilermaker’s Playbook for you!

Very timely I thought.

If there’s one thing we can ALL agree on, it is that there are few teams with the ability to get open three-point shots with their set plays with the consistency of Purdue. (Dare I say no one?)

Also fact.

This playbook is divided into 6 sections.

Swivel Series
Horns Series
Weave Series
Special Series
Baseline OB Series
Sideline Series
Straightforward.  No BS.

And I have a SUPER imaginative title to match:

Purdue Boilermakers Offensive Playbook  (hahaha…crazy original, I know.)

Anyway…

You’ll get 92 total pages with everything you’ll need to understand why Painter’s motion offense has consistently been one of the top 5 offenses in college ball in recent years.

Bruce Weber: Developing Your Defense Through Practice Drills

This pressure defense is modeled after the Run and Stun that Ex-Cleveland State coach Kevin Mackey used to take his Vikings to the sweet sixteen in 1986. It uses a ten or more players to wear down their opponents and keep their team fresh. This Full Court Pressure Defense has been one of the best over the last three years of college basketball.

Add to cart

Why Press?
-To cause TO’s and leading to easier baskets
-To wear your opponents down
-To play more players on your roster
-To break opponents’ rhythm
-To eat clock on defense- shortening the time for the offense to get a good shot

These are just some of the reasons you should employ a press defense.

This book examines a variety of press defenses employed by some of the press defenses being used today. In this playbook, you will get breakdowns and drills from:

Shaka Smart- VCU and “HAVOC basketball.”
Mike White- Florida
Rick Pitino- Louisville
Jay Wright- Villanova
Scott Drew- Baylor
Mike Anderson- Arkansas and “Fastest 40” (derived from his mentor Nolan Richardson and “40 Minutes of Hell”)
Bob Huggins- West Virginia and “Press Virginia.”

Buying a new car is great, however getting upgraded tires, a new navigation, better sound system and sunroof make all the difference right? 

You might say the same about a point guard. Having an average point guard will help you win some games, make some players better and even be consistent on a game to game basis. However we want the newer, more exciting and reliable players who have all the attributes. 

Having a great point guard is essential in today's game. A point guard who can read the defense, distribute the ball effectively with a notable basketball IQ is like a brand new car that you can't wait to use. Just like upgrading your car, you can do the same with your point guard. 

There are many ways to develop an average player into a widely recognized force. Incorporating advanced drills can and will enhance a players ability to produce for the team at a high capacity. For a guard position in the league to last, they have to show they can perform above average and consistently in a certain area, while remaining productive in another. They always possess flash, poise, purpose, the stage is never too big or small for them, they never stop striving for greatness, they compete, never get discouraged, they are great playmakers, and they are constantly enhancing their skill set.

Having a reliable guard who can score, dish and serve the ball is bound to take you into the playoffs. At both ends of the floor, they are energetic, dynamic and unselfish in their approach and ultimately have a big impact on any game.

Baylor Head Coach Scott Drew and Assistant Coach Mark Morefield created a master course focusing on advanced guard development training. In this course, they breakdown specific skill building workouts that helped them set the cornerstone of Baylor Basketball. They cover everything from ball screen actions, single and double shots, single and double circuits, transition 3’s plus many more! 

Bruce Pearl and the Auburn Tigers landed in the Final Four due to their 6th best offense in the country according to KenPom adjust efficiency rankings.  The biggest part of of their high powered offense was their transition offense, as well as their three-point shooting in their primary break offense.  If they didn't score in their primary break, Auburn would run a great half-court offense with the 4-out offense and a sensational drive and kick offense.  The Auburn Tigers pushed the ball as much as they could and ran their set plays better than anyone.  Bruce Pearl would run over sixty different set plays with several counters depending on the defense.  They also used the backdoor set plays to get quick scores.   

This Auburn Tigers Offense Playbook will give you several ideas on how you can rev up your fast break and get your team scoring various ways in the half-court.

I am now releasing the Gonzaga Playbook: “Learn Mark Few’s Style of play concerning Secondary Break, Flex Offense, Out of Bounds Plays, and Full Court Press Break”.

It has 73 pages of basketball coaching information.

It has 21 different variations on its secondary break offense which is tremendous.

Their Secondary break flows right into their flex offense. They are 12 different variations on the Flex Offense.

I have included 10 out-of-bounds plays and 7 Full Court Press Break options.

Gonzaga was (27-7) last year and their 13th straight 20-win season.

For the fourth time in his 11 years as head coach of Gonzaga University, he guided the Bulldogs to the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA Tournament in 2009.

Gonzaga’s run of 13 consecutive WCC Tournament championship game appearances is also the second-longest streak of years making a final of a conference tournament among the current conference alignments.

What do you get:

50 Plays
75 Pages of Basketball Coaching information into the Gonzaga Bulldog Program
21 Variations of Secondary Breaks
12  Variations of Flex Offense
10 Out of Bounds Plays
7 Full Court Press Breakers

I really think that you are going to enjoy the X’s and O’s that I have drawn up from watching countless hours of footage and research on the Gonzaga Bulldog Program.  

I believe in working the ball in and out as Mark Few does with his Gonzaga Bulldogs.  Today's pace and space offenses overlook this HUGE key.  Getting the ball into the post is a big part of Coach Few's offenses and you will see why it is a critical skill from one of the country's most successful coaches, Mark Few.

Maybe you don't have a big post player, but  Coach Few will show you how to use the post in transition as an offensive weapon.  This playbook will help you and your players to see post opportunities as they develop in transition and how to put your guards and bigs in the best areas to score.

Things that you will learn:

• How to use the offense off the post to get high scoring shots for any player on the floor.
• How post-play can alter an opponent's game strategy beyond just post defense.
• The most effective ways to punish a defense that pressures or double-teams the post.

You will also see how Coach Few runs multiple set plays and quick hitters to get the ball into the post scoring area close to the rim.  These entries will frustrate any defense.

Mark Few believes in playing inside-out and shows you the kinds of offense that can be run after the ball goes inside.  Coach Few will show you several counters to run on the defense as they react to the ball being in the post.

This playbook is a  detailed look at the essential aspect of the game by Mark Few, one of the game's top coaching minds.

I’m going to keep this short today…

While the basketball world is pretty much focused on the college scene right now, many of us noticed the Utah Jazz ripping off 10 wins in a row recently.

Quin Snyder and the Jazz are pretty well known for their defense but today, we have a bit of a change of pace for you.

We just gain access to the complete nearly 100-page long Utah Jazz playbook! Let’s face it…even if you pull one awesome nugget of information or insight from this playbook, it is 100% worth it!

Having worked under Coach K at Duke and Ettore Messina with CSKA Moscow, you know this stuff is going to be ‘dialed in’!

Got less talent on the floor? Try this playbook ASAP

Unless you’ve been blinded by the Loyola run, you likely caught the Marshall Thundering Herd breaking a 30 year NCAA drought…using – shall we say – slightly less talent than many other teams.

NOTE: The playbook described below has serious “real world” applications for you.

Here’s why:

We’ve all been in this position.

You’re playing a team that is CLEARLY faster and more talented.

You’ve got your work cut out for you…

No one wants to see a blowout…

This is a time where you need to go off-script…because the usual script will get you crushed!

Dan D’Antoni found himself in EXACTLY this position when he took over at Marshall.

But…

By removing the post, clearing out the lane and focusing on high percentage shots only, he has successfully neutralized the talent difference on the court.

Now you can do the same…

Of course, Marshall’s improbable run didn’t happen overnight…it took YEARS to bring about.

Dan took his NBA experience (with brother Mike), and in a just a few short years, marched the Herd back to the NCAA tournament riding what some coaches call a “Chaos Offense”.

And guess what…

It works!

This week’s feature playbook lets you start doing the same thing.

Here you have 78 pages designed to prevent you from getting embarrassed on the court by more dominant teams.

Sound like something you need in your toolbox? I thought so…

See you courtside,

SP

P.S. Let’s face it coach…this is NOT just some cool playbook to grab just because some team is riding high.

This one may very well save your butt.

Enjoy!

[**New Release**] The playbook that helped mold Steph Curry at Davidson

NOTE:  This is the first announcement of a previously unreleased playbook!

(And we all know how fired up I get when this happens…)

There’s a reason Bob McKillop is the winningest coach in Southern Conference history.

There’s a reason he has over 550 career wins and why Davidson will ALWAYS have a target on their back.

I’ll go as far as to say this…

I firmly believe his program may be the best one for you to study.  

Why?

The simplicity of Coach McKillop’s approach is IDEAL for young player development.

If you’re not familiar with everything they do. Here’s the short version:

McKillop drives home “Seven Keys”–

See
Talk
Hit Flesh
Do Details
Finish Everything
Balance
Act
Jay Bilas’s blog over at ESPN has a nice summary you can check out here:

http://www.espn.com/blog/jay-bilas/insider/post/_/id/225

Now you can dive into the complete details of how “simplicity” is brought to life in a brand new playbook.

Over these 98 pages, you’ll discover exactly why McKillop’s system is an ideal fit for you and your players.

Here’s the breakdown of all 8 sections:

Transition & Motion
Davidson Sets
Baseline Out of Bounds
Sideline Out of Bounds
Davidson 5-Out (This alone is worth the price of the entire playbook!)
Davidson Pressbreaker
Davidson Zone Set
Davidson Zone BLOB
Honestly, with this “hot off the presses” playbook in your back pocket, your player’s basketball IQ will take a huge leap UPWARD…

They will become experts at reading defenses and you’ll understand why Coach McKillop prefers a “teaching” approach above just throwing sets out there.

Of course, you may prefer the opinion of Steph Curry over mine...

https://www.nbcsports.com/bayarea/video/coaching-corps-underdog-stephen-curry-finds-believer-bob-mckillop

But in my humble opinion, this playbook represents the strongest system you could plug into your program...bar none.

And today, you can be the first to get your hands on it.

Two of the up & coming young coaches in the game today, 3 Final Fours between them, and players who buy into their teams systems!  VCU not only gets after it for 40:00 on the defensive end, but the offensive sets take advantage of players strengths and put them in a position to score.  The constant ball screening actions make it hard for defenses to switch!  Brad Stevens Butler offense is intricate and really takes advantage of movement and with Rotnei Clark, the team has a reliable shooter just waiting for the defense to sag or help.  This playbook is one of the hottest of the year due to the fact that these coaches know what it takes to get their players to buy into the "team concept" and sacrifice personal glory.  Take a look inside and you won't put it down!  If your program is on the verge of being a top contender, then this playbook is right for you!!

The numbers don’t lie.  Change your defense

Hey Coach,

If you think the coaches at the top of the game have blind faith in their systems, you’d be mistaken.

These guys are committed to winning, not any one dogmatic approach…

Just like you and me, it’s adapt or get overrun!

Here is a textbook case of a coach who acknowledged a problem and took very specific steps to correct it.

Head Coach Brad Underwood was not in a desirable situation…

He inherited a “rebuilding” program…(we all know what that means).

And after two dismal seasons, he was open to change.

His high-pressure defense that has worked so well in JUCO was letting him down.

It was time to adapt or die.

Here’s what he did to turn the Illini program around and build a top 25 team…

Brought in outside help (from the Celtics organization)
Studied Sweet Sixteen teams, Big Ten teams, and more
Analyzed the categories where his team ranked worst
“I looked at where we were at in all those things and knew we had to make some changes. What we were doing, there were some positives for it. But at the end of the day, change needed to happen, and we had to do that.” – Brad Underwood

The result was a complete transformation.

The good kind.

He succeeded in morphing his pressure defense into a more of a pack line defense following the detailed plan in our new playbook.

And now you can put this plan to work for you.

In fact, we’ve dedicated an entire section of this playbook to the breakdown of the pressure defense to more of the pack line defense Underwood implements today.

In total, we’ve put together 122 pages of the plays responsible for pulling a once-proud D1 team out of the dregs and into contention!

Here’s all the proof you need that defenses have and will continue to evolve.

Have you?

If you need a blueprint, this is it.

P.S.  Having this defensive playbook – as used by the guys at the top – is a fantastic opportunity. 

Here’s the link again.  Grab it today!

The Villanova Wildcats have long been known for their immaculate spacing, ball movement and Jay Wright’s affinity for “small ball” and four-guard lineups.  The Wildcats’ offense ranks 11th in the nation in adjusted offensive efficiency and ‘Nova fans hope it can lead the team all the way to the NCAA Final Four

The Late great innovator Steve Jobs once said: “Simplicity is the ultimate Sophistication.” That perfectly details the Wildcats approach on offense and is a large reason why they were able to shock the world to become NCAA Tournament champions over the loaded North Carolina Tarheels in 2016. 

Villanova’s motion-based offense thrives on movement. Villanova coach Jay Wright came up with his version of the motion offense while at Hofstra University when he had problems recruiting quality big men. So, he adapted and used his team’s strength — its guards.

Now at Villanova, Wright wants his players to shoot the ball at will, invoking what he called “playing to your jump shot”

The spacing and balance are easy to see. The Wildcats are almost always beautifully spaced creating a horizontal and vertical stretch of the defense. There are simple rules for spacing and cuts that help Wright’s offense maintain its floor balance throughout the possession.

I am proud to introduce this newest basketball playbook. Boston Celtics 2009-2010 Basketball Playbook: “Learn Doc Rivers Style of Play for the Boston Celtics”. It has their top eight plays, 11 Transition Sets, 39 Half-Court Sets, 9 Sideline Out of Bounds Plays, and 8 Baseline Out of Bounds plays. It is a total of 75 of their best basketball plays combined into one compact playbook.

I really think that you will enjoy this NBA Playbook.  It will have variations on the Pick and Roll Offense that you normally don’t see.  You might see a couple sets that you can incorporate into your set play offense or use them as quick hitters.  75 of the top basketball coaching plays from the Boston Celtics is at your disposal for $15.  I hope that you enjoy.

Chris Beard vs the World [Playbook & Prediction Inside]

Hey Coach,

NOTE:  [This email is for defense-minded coaches only]

To say I’m a fan of Chris Beard and his defensive prowess is an understatement…

I truly believe Coach Beard’s defense can LITERALLY hang with anyone. 

Here’s my mindset in a nutshell:

Texas Tech vs.  ANY Offense

Let me explain…

As you know, the buzz was all around Texas Tech’s defense in the tourney last year.

Super impressive…

Most of you are also aware those performances didn’t just come out of the blue.

Chris Beard has been dominating on D for years, including Little Rock before taking the reins at Texas Tech.

And last season, he managed to do it on the biggest stage there is.

Based on that, here’s my (not so wild) prediction:
The Texas Tech defense will be ranked No. 1 this year…by an amazing margin.  

I mean, “like a boss!” type stuff.

But I wanted to really prove my point, so I got creative and put a new playbook together for you!

It’s simply called:  “Texas Tech Defense vs ANY Offense”

Check out this unique format…

I’ve taken 3 VERY influential games and broken them down for you.

86 pages in total.  

3 major sections.  One for each game.

Texas Tech vs Virginia (of course)

Texas Tech vs TCU 

Little Rock vs Purdue 

Same defense against very different offensive systems.

I think you’re going to LOVE this approach.

Real “D” in real games.

Here’s your shot to get this “hot off the presses” playbook:
“Texas Tech Defense vs Any Offense”

See you courtside,

Scott 

P.S. You won’t find this playbook ANYWHERE else.  

You’re the first to hear about it…Time to level up the D!

Man! I’m looking forward to this season! 

Can you guess where I’ll be parked tonight?

I’ve always been a huge Jayhawks fan (Yes, I prefer to overlook some tournament hiccups over the years).

Anyway…

You gotta love a good ole fashioned HoF level coaching clash!

Am I right?

In this one, I’m giving the nod to Bill Self and Jayhawks over Mike Krzyzewski and Duke.  

(As fun as he is to watch, I just don’t think Tre Jones will be enough to turn this one Duke’s way)

Bill Self is obviously one of the best in the game.  If you examine his “evolution” from his turnaround of the Oral Roberts and then the moves Tulsa made up through his tenure in Kansas, you can help but be impressed. 

It’s almost a given every year isn’t it?  Coach Self has won (or shared) the Big 12 Conference title in 14 out of 16 years he’s been there!

I’m mean seriously…a .957 winning percentage at home?  What the…

Which means today’s email is PERFECT timing!

In an obvious display of bias (and perfect timing)…I’ve put together a Jayhawks playbook and kept the format very traditional.

I elected to bypass the “game breakdown” layout of the previous few playbooks I’ve put out. This one looks like this:

5 sections:

Half Court Man Offense
Half Court Zone Offense
SLOBs
BLOBs
BLOBs vs Zone
103 pages in all. 

Now you can get in inside look at his strong hi-lo motion offense.

Elegant in its simplicity…

I can’t recommend this one enough.  I’m actually not 100% sure why I haven’t done this earlier!

Anywhoo…

You can grab this one effective immediately.

Here’s the link:  Kansas Jayhawks Offensive Playbook

Grab it instantly before the game…it’ll be worth it!

John Beilein has been called the “guru” of the X’s and O’s.

(I tend to share that opinion.)

After 16 years at the helm, he’s arguably one of the best in the business.

One of the cool things about the Playbook business – plus a little technology – is that we can now get his exact playbook into your hands PRIOR to the game Thursday.

Kinda neat…

And if you’re anything like me...

You like having a little extra insight into how Beilein brings it!

Also, once you grab this book you’ll notice one thing right away…

He keeps it about as simple as it gets.

Even though the playbook come in at 127 pages, it is broken down into only 5 sections:
• Half Court Man Offense
• Half Court Zone Offense
• BLOB’s
• SLOB’s
• Drills

It is beautiful in its simplicity.  

I know you’ll enjoy it.  

As long as Michigan stays in the tourney, you can own this playbook here.

[Insider’s View] Texas Tech vs. Virginia: “getting defensive”

-----

Hey Coach,

While the “uninitiated masses” watched last season’s NCAA championship game from the usual “who won-who lost” perspective, we coaches see it from an entirely unique angle.

We see the play calls…

Understand the defenses…

Analyze the situational play…

An “insider’s view” for sure.

But in this particular game, there was one thing that was blatantly obvious to viewers at nearly every level.

Defense won that title!

You didn’t have to be a tactical guru to see that.

I mean, we all knew Bennett v Beard was going to be a good one…but the defensive dominance was front and center.

Consider these stats from KenPom.com:

70% of teams that have reached the Final Four in the past 10 years finished the season ranked in the top 20 in defense.

75% of teams that reached the title game during that stretch and every national champion since at least 2002 were in the top 20.

Last season, national runner-up Texas Tech had the No. 1 defense. National champion Virginia was No. 5.
So, what was the next obvious thing for me to do?

Do the research and have a complete “insider’s view” playbook created—based entirely on this one game!

And here it is…Virginia and Texas Tech together in one book!

116 pages broken out into 4 major sections. 

Both teams.  Offense and Defense.

This stuff is killer…

This playbook presents the “coaches view” of a great game and spells out exactly how defense won the National Championship!

I look at this as your own little “defense master class”…

And this is the first announcement of this book!

From cover to cover, you're going to love this complete breakdown of the Championship Game!

Subj:  The fastest way to kill the offensive rhythm

Hey Coach,

I’ve expressed in previous emails just how out-and-out excited I get when we can present you with a new playbook…

It’s even better when that playbook details the #1 trend in basketball defense.

Well, release the pigeons and sound the trumpets!

Here we go…

Let’s state this right up front:

Old school logic called the switching defense “soft”.  

(It was actually Bobby Knight who led that charge.  He HATED it.)

Yet, here we are.

Why?

Because the game and the players have changed significantly since the days of getting the ball to the low post where a Patrick Ewing or Shaq was waiting...

Honestly, how often do you see that style of play anymore?

That approach has been slowly – but surely – displaced by a game of speed with (arguably) more versatile players.

Switching can kill the rhythm of the offense and cause the ball to become sticky.

Offensive players and the ball become stagnant.

So far, so good.  Right?

Much of the success on offense stems from having great player and ball movement to break down the defense. The switch can slow this down.

Now it becomes easier for the defense to position themselves properly and guard the offensive action.

What happens then? (I love this part…)

You start daring the offense to beat you over and over again- “Are you good enough to beat us by

making individual plays all night?"

You take defense – which is normally in reactionary mode – and move into a position of MUCH more control.

When executed correctly, you force the offense out of their comfort zone and into a style that suits you and your team.

So, what does the defense of the future look like?  You’re looking at it.

And I strongly recommend you understand the switching defense at the deepest level.

Here is step #1.

Our new “Switching Defense” playbook is 66 pages of everything you need to know – and implement.

Coaches,

I just released my newest playbook which is 82 pages long. It is Dribble Drive Motion Offense: “How to Attack Sagging man and Zone defenses with DDM”. I spent the last month and a half breaking down 75 basketball games from Memphis Tigers led by Coach John Calipari, UMASS led by Derek Kellogg / Vance Walberg, and Marist College led by Chucky Martin (Former John Calipari Assistant Coach at Memphis).

I get a lot of requests on how do you use DDM to attack sagging man defense and versus zone defenses that I decided to do a lot of research. I noticed that all the teams used what I call “entry sets” to get their team into Dribble Drive Motion Offense and to create triple gaps. UMASS ran a lot of open post dribble-drive motion offense, because of their personnel and it was the first year in the system. These are just some ideas on how to attack sagging man defense and zone defenses using a DDM set.

Table of Contents:

Sets versus Sagging Man Defense: 18 entry sets
Sets versus Zone Defense: 16 zone offense sets
Sets versus Pressure Defenses: 2 set plays
Sets versus Junk Defenses: 2 set plays
Favorite Sets for DDM teams: 12 set plays
DDM Set Plays versus odd or even zones: 9 set plays
DDM Concepts: 11 Plays

I think that if you run dribble drive motion offense or have someone in your league that runs it. You will be able to gain more insight into ways to incorporate DDM concepts into your offense. Your dribble-drive motion offense will run smoothly against sagging man defense and zone defenses with these set plays to get you into DDM.

EXTREMELY EASY TO USE! Detailed drills that will drastically improve your players and enable you to save time/energy and concentrate on other areas of your team like the best basketball coaches do

Does your team need an “NBA-level” turnaround?

Hey Coach!

How do you orchestrate a serious turnaround?

If your team is in need of a shakeup, you need to read every word of this email!

Taking an NCAA team from worst to first is impressive, but let’s face it, athletes graduate, get injured, turn pro, etc. at a much faster pace than the “dynasty-prone” NBA.

That’s just a reality.

The fact that the NBA is so deep in talent and have longer-term contracts makes coming out of nowhere much less likely.

Once a team gets the right formula together, they tend to lock things in for a few years.

But don’t tell the Milwaukee Bucks you can’t make a sudden move!

As sports writer Todd Whitehead put it, Coach Mike Budenholzer “brought their offense into the 21 century”…

But he did more than that, didn’t he…

He took a team that hadn’t won a playoff series since the Bush->Clinton era, and he turned them into the best offense in the NBA.

No small feat.  

(Thanks, Captain Obvious!)

Most of you know he was with the Hawks previously, but only when he made the move to the Bucks did things REALLY take off…

If you’d like to see how a team does that in today’s NBA, I’ve got a surprise for you!

I just got the entire Budenholzer-Hawks-Bucks Playbook handed to me. ☺ 

125 pages of “This Is How You Turn Things Around” Basketball

>>Heck, the table of contents in 10 pages long! <<

This is one of the better value playbooks we’ve seen released in a looong time!

Transitions

Who should grab this playbook?

Any high school coach who runs an NBA-style offense

Any program in need an offensive “makeover”

Any coach who wants details on how you can rise to the top in the incredibly competitive NBA
As usual, newly released playbooks are an incredibly hot item.  And I don’t expect this one to be any different.

Because of the size of this resource, I was going to price it at $27, but I like to stay consistent, sooo…

You can get this BRAND NEW PLAYBOOK for only $20.00

No fancy bundles.  No flash sales.

Just a great value for you.

Enjoy!

We’ve entered the golden age of point guards who can do it all. Score, dish and serve. 

I know many come to mind. Players like Curry, Westbrook, Irving, Lillard and Paul to name a few have taken the league by storm. And there's no surprise that every offense goes through the facilitator. Developing Guards is vital to a teams success, they orchestrate the offense as well as facilitate.

Among all the positions on a basketball court, the point guard has the most specialized duties. The point guard must understand the game plan. It is paramount that they create scoring chances for themselves and others, and that they keep their own tempo.

Life is hard for point guards in today's basketball, it's not enough to be a steady, reliable, play it safe distributor. It's an ever changing role that one must adapt to quickly in order to be effective. Failure to do so can result in poor performances, teams coming up short, not making the playoffs, or worse, getting benched or even dropped from the team. 

A developing point guard must become proficient in twelve main attributes in order to be successful. First and foremost, a desire to win, the sheer will to win. The ability to focus on others, direct the game plan. Ball handling skills are essential when developing a guard. They must value each and every possession and take care of the ball. The ability to make teammates better by facilitating. A clear understanding of the situation and being able to direct the fast break are just some of the attributes to an elite player. 

Baylor Head Coach Scott Drew and Assistant Coach Mark Morefield created a master course focusing on guard development training. In this course, they breakdown specific skill building workouts that helped them set the cornerstone of Baylor Basketball. They cover everything from warm up shooting, commando ball handling, 5 spot shooting to the jab step. Plus many more!

Just released a new eBook in the Basketball Secrets Unleashed Series. The Dribble Drive Motion Offense “Entry Sets” playbook is now available to you. It has been a very long project that has taken over 4 years to accomplish. I was like you and loved the “AAASA” or Dribble Drive Motion Offense about 5 years ago. I have tape / dvd on DDM from High School, College, and NBA Teams that run DDM. This eBook is some of the earlier entry sets that I compiled from video, talking with DDM coaches, and just reading studying it.

I bet that you are saying… What do you mean “Entry Sets”? About three years ago, when DDM broke on the national scene thanks to the Memphis Tigers, I noticed something. I noticed that the really good teams were running sets into DDM. I started to ask around and got all the video and went to basketball clinics like you. Pepperdine, Memphis, Western Michigan, VMI, and UMASS this year were mainly running sets into DDM. I did notice a little bit of this trend at Fresno City College, but not as much as now.

I have all the dribble drive motion offense DVDs that are on the market. I have heard people tell me that you have to teach the penetration positions (drop, drag, and rack zone) spots, before you can teach defensive reads. That it is like running regular motion, you need to know the screens, before you can teach the cuts off the screens. They said that you need to know what to do on the drag zone drive, before I can worry about where the defender is. Of course, you have to buy these two DVDs to teach the spots, while you buy these two DVDs to teach the reads. Most coaches tell me that it is just too complex to learn.

Last year, I put out a Dribble Drive Motion Offense ebook and most coaches could piece everything together. Questions that I always heard where: I love the offense, but just wish that it wasn’t so much free lance from the beginning. I wish that I could have some “structure” to it. Some of the more successful high school teams across the country started to run some sets with it. I really think that it helps pull the offense together.

I have compiled a little bit of my research from dozens of high school, AAU, Small College, NCAA Division 1, and NBA teams into these entry sets. I think that it will make things so less complication and will help to advance your team’s learning curve of Dribble Drive Motion Offense.

Example of Dribble Drive Motion Offense “Entry Sets” Playbook:

Here is the Table of Contents:

Entry Sets: 37 Plays

Drop Series: 8 Plays

Drag Series: 8 Plays

Cross Series: 9 Plays

Zone Series: 9 Plays

Total Combination of Entry Sets: 71 plays

Here is another example of the Dribble Drive Motion Offense “Entry Sets” Playbook:

Coaches,

I hope that you enjoy it. It was the biggest project that I have done in quite a while. This eBook is the younger days of DDM, because coaches can it or tweak it every year, but I think that you will enjoy what we have for you.

Disclaimer: This eBook was not written by Vance Walberg or John Calipari. It was compiled from researching the Dribble Drive Motion Offense for several years. I have talked with tons of people that have offered insight into these entry sets.

Steve Masiello presents one of the popular trends in the game, the pick & roll. This dangerous action is looked at from both the offensive and defensive perspective. The pick & roll is the best offensive weapon in today’s game. It is also the most difficult to defend. Steve Masiello examines screening angles and how to defend each screen & roll.

Hey Coach!

A lot has been written about the dribble drive.

Some coaches love it.  

They literally build everything around it…

Others dismiss it as passé…

Either way, whether your offense employs dribble drive motion or not, it’s likely you’ll have to face it multiple times this season, so you need to prepare for what’s coming your way.

Make sense?

Well, with that in mind, I’ve done a bit of research for you.

I’ve found an NCAA D3 coach that has been in the Top 3 of Scoring Offense that last three years.  He has taken Dribble Drive Motion Offense and taken it to a new level.

Coach Bridgeland spent time with Coach Walberg at Pepperdine in 2008.  He has helped transform a program with just one winning season in the previous 20 years into a major blip on the NCAA D3 national radar.

In the past three seasons, Whitman College went 88-5, reaching the Sweet 16, Elite Eight, and Final Four of the NCAA D3 Tournament.

Here’s what I did…

I broke things down into 7 main sections (these just made sense to me):

Entry Set Plays
Secondary Break
2-2-1 Press
After Time Out Plays
Baseline Out of Bounds Plays
Defense
Sideline Out of Bounds Plays.
In all, its 82 pages you can tuck into your back pocket as the ideal reference.

Now I say “Innovative”,  because you really don’t need much Coach Bridgeland has taken it to a NEW level.

Simple.

Concise. 

The way things should be.  ☺

OK, now that the Super Bowl is over and the endless analysis fading, attention will slowly turn back to the court.  

March Madness is looming on the horizon…

One of the teams expected to be there happens to have one of the top defenses in the country.  Period. And there’s a reason for that…

The man at the helm is Head Coach Tony Bennett.  

(You may know that his father, Dick Bennett was the man who created the Pack Line Defense.)

Well… It just so happens, we now have this new playbook: “Encyclopedia of Pack Line Defense”.

This just-released playbook contains EVERYTHING you need to know about this incredibly effective approach – as it is employed by Coach Bennett at UV.

From key areas to positions and techniques to drills covering multiple scenarios…it’s all here.

Over 70 pages of Pack Line Defense expertise!

Remember:  Even if you don’t use the Pack Line Defense…you will undoubtedly have to face it.

Be ready! Committed to your success!

Coach Scott Peterman

P.S.  Having this defensive playbook – as used by the guys at the top – is a fantastic opportunity.

Coaches,

I am proud to release the Orlando Magic Playbook 2009-2010: “Learn the Stan Van Gundy Style of Play for the Orlando Magic”. It is a 121 Page Playbook that has 80 plays that the Orlando Magic used this past NBA Season. It has 7 zone offenses, 16 Blobs, 10 Slobs, 42 Half-court sets, and 5 After Time-Out Plays.

I hope that you enjoy these NBA Sets. Some of the best slobs and blobs in basketball come from the NBA. The NBA is the leader in pick and roll offense so you have a chance to spice up your playbook.

Coach Peterman

I have had multiple requests for a playbook that will spice up your post plays and tweak some of your offensive sets. I decided to look into the most consistent N.B.A. Franchise in the last decade. It is the San Antonio Spurs who have won the World Championship in 99, 03, 05, and 07
  

Coach Gregg Popovich’s “San Antonio Spurs” use an offense that is mostly built on the perimeter, but they exploit the skills of Tim Duncan, an all-around player who can play close or away from the basket at a medium shooting distance. The Offense is built on the offensive penetrations of their guard that lead to 3 point shooting opportunities. It also have a wide array of pick-n-roll plays in their offense.

This N.B.A. Power Post Offense Playbook has:
90 Set Plays
2 Zone Offense
1 Sideline Out of Bounds play
1 Baseline Out of Bounds play

I really do think that this playbook will be able to tweak your set plays up with some interesting looks. You will be able to involve your guards as well as your post players.

The making of Brad Stevens: Butler University to the Boston Celtics

Hi Coach,

Today I dive into one of the “A List” coaches that I follow closely…

Brad Stevens.

But here’s the thing, the media consistently portrays Stevens as a coach of the “underdog”.

I’m not sure I agree.

Here’s why…

How long can you consistently produce great results before people stop hanging the ‘underdog’ tag on you and just give you straight up kudos for being one of the best in the game?

(my humble opinion)

Great coaches do great work with whatever tools they have at their disposal.

Such was the case when Coach Stevens was at Butler. 

I lump Butler into the same category as Gonzaga (I will acknowledge the underdog theme here!)

People LOVE to see these two teams give the juggernaut teams fits.  

Am I right?

People follow Butler closely…waiting for that “improbable” run at tournament time.

And Stevens was the guy largely responsible for Butler’s consistently strong runs…taking them to two NCAA Championship Games during his brief six-year run there.

Very impressive stuff.

In Boston, he’s made the injury-riddled Celtics a perennial playoff team…

Known for his creative play-calling, he’s even been called an “ATO Genius”.

No argument here. 

Seeing as I’m an obvious fan of the guy, I thought I would dig into how he got to be the coach he is. 

I’ve done the research and put together an exhaustive playbook for you. 

I call it, “Butler University Bulldogs: Brad Stevens Years”.

Here’s how I came at it…

7 major sections—each based upon a specific game.

I went a little crazy…so it came out to 130 pages.  ☺ 

• Butler vs Duke
• Butler vs Old Dominion
• Butler vs Pittsburgh
• Butler vs Wisconsin
• Butler vs Florida
• Butler vs VCU
• Butler vs Connecticut 

Each section is about 20 pages of detailed play breakdown. (The exception is the Old Dominion game, which is shorter).

You’re gonna love the insight here into one of the freshest and most creative guys out there.

Value-wise.  This one’s a hell of a deal…I just had to do right by my guy!

See you courtside,

This Building a Championship Transition Defense Course is a series of drills that we use and have consistently helped us develop into an outstanding transition team on a yearly basis.  This course contains a clinic video of our transition, a video of drills, and my drill eBook.  Developing an excellent transition defense is critical to limiting as many easy baskets as possible.  Our goal is to force our opponent to score in the half-court.

We will use 2 of these drills daily at the beginning of practice.  These drills create urgency in getting back and stopping the other team from scoring.  In essence, we are setting the tone that you will have to earn your points.  And although they are of transition focus, there are other important aspects such as rebounding, stopping the ball, and becoming a mentally tough team.  These drills will rep the quickness of getting back.

It is my hope that you can find something that you can use in these drills or that it sparks an idea for you.  These drills can be modified to fit the needs of your system and the number of players you have. 

Take an inside look on how Kentucky ran their Dribble Drive Motion Offense in the 2009-2010 season. You get to see the X’s and O’s of how the Kentucky Basketball Coach turned this team into a DDM team. How did he effectively use Patrick Patterson (Post player turned Perimeter Guard) and what options did they use when he needed a score in the post?

What do you do when your Dribble Drive Motion Offense team gets a little stagnant? He is some wrinkles that will allow you different looks into DDM and still use all of the DDM Concepts.

The First part of this eBook has 50 plays / 57 plays basketball X’s and O’s information. I give you half-court set plays to get into DDM, Zone Offense that keep DDM concepts alive and some Zone Blob Plays.

Exclusive:

The second part of this eBook has 32 plays / 40 plays of DDM Clinic information never available anywhere in the United States. The diagramed notes detail: Dribble Drive Motion Offense, Drills for DDM, More Zone offense sets, Pick and Roll Offense for DDM, and Three-Point plays that employ DDM Concepts.

Sample

Learn different wrinkles that are only taught in the N.B.A. and many more tips….

I hope that you enjoy.

Coach Peterman

Hey Coach!

I’m super excited today!

And if you looked closely at the subject line, you know why…

Not only do I have a brand-new, never-before-released playbook, but I just LOVE the theme behind it.

You see, every year, the NCAA goes through its annual “shell game” as coaches get shuffled around, fired, hired, they quit…the whole thing.

This year was particularly raucous…

From Alabama to Washington State, big changes are ahappenin’.

Transitions were going on everywhere.

As we know, transitions can be good or bad.

Some programs out there need to wipe the slate clean and start over, whereas others are looking for someone to come in, keep things calm and maintain what’s in place.

Either way, it’s no easy task.

Sports Illustrated agreed and put it this way…

“A sweeping set of coaching changes shifted the college basketball landscape this summer, by now a customary offseason ritual, but also one which highlights a number of programs in transition. A wide number of high-major jobs opened up, and a fascinating mix of head coaches took over at new programs.”

So true.

I thought you’d like an inside look at what some of the teams you know and love are going to look like, once some of these coaches come in and put their unique stamp on things.

So…

Are you ready?

The new playbook is called “2019-2020 Faces in New Places Playbook”

This is 215 pages on X’s and O’s from some old faces, as well as some stars on the rise!  And you can get the chance to say “I’ve been reading about this guy for years.”

Here’s the list of coaches we’ve featured inside:

Nate Oats - Alabama Crimson Tide
Eric Musselman:  Arkansas Razorbacks
Mark Pope:  BYU Cougars
John Brannen:  Cincinnati Bearcats
Juwan Howard:  Michigan Wolverines
Aaron McKie:  Temple Owls
Jerry Stackhouse:  Vanderbilt Commodores
Mike Young:  Virginia Tech Hokies
Kyle Smith:  Washington State Cougars

For less than 20 bucks you can see where these programs are going and make your own predictions about how well they’ll do, based upon these breakdowns.

At 215 pages, you know there’s a ton of information inside that you likely haven’t seen before, because some of these guys are just now moving up the ladder.

Your multi-media solution to “Attacking the Switch”

A recent analysis concluded:

“Modern basketball has moved away from a one-on-one play, and toward a more dynamic style centered around pick-and-rolls.

The league is becoming more skilled: more shooting and more passing from more positions mean that offenses benefit more from movement and screening, and defenses have fewer choices to defend these actions without giving up something good.”

Every once in a while I read something that makes me stop and ‘take stock’ of my thought process.

The above quote was one of those times…

This was a solid, simple summary of where the game is clearly headed.

So I paused and asked myself…

Am I doing enough for my players with regard to getting THEM ready for an evolving style of play?

And then I went a step further and wondered:  Am I doing right by YOU (my fellow coaches) along these lines?

As I mulled this over, it occurred to me that a “big picture” thought like this deserves a unique approach as a solution.

Obviously, it’s crucial that all of us, as coaches, don’t get bogged down in outdated thinking.

So why don’t I take the lead here and put together a complete solution?!

And that’s exactly what I did.  ☺

I took a ‘multi-media’ approach to this one.

First, I wrote a new playbook called – simply enough – “Attacking the Switch”.  

This Playbook is a full 65 pages long!

…but here is where things get even better…

Next, I did a bit of research with my colleagues over at CoachTube, and put together no less than 78 videos as the ideal supplement to my playbook!

(Me working with CoachTube is kinda like one of those ‘crossover events’ you see on TV where one show’s characters appear in the storyline of another show…sorta)  

Anywhoo,

If the analysis above is correct – and I think simple observation says it is – then we need to be have a complete solution in place, so all of us can stay on top of our game.

This is that solution.

This collection creates the opportunity to throw sand in the offense’s gears, taking them out of their flow, and making them play a slower, grittier, uglier style of basketball.

The cost of this through “Attack the Switch” coaching product is only $25.00.

(Hey, we are here to keep everyone progressing forward, so we felt strongly that we didn’t want lack of resources standing in the way…)

I just finished putting the finishing touches on my latest eBook:  Dribble Drive Motion Offense: “The Book on DDM and the little things to it”.  I get asked questions all the time about Dribble Drive Motion Offense especially since it has only been around for the general coaching community about three years.  DDM  has increased in its popularity since John Calipari started using it at Memphis and now Kentucky.  I have just tried to answer some of the questions about DDM that I get.

Table of Contents:
Breakdown and Drop Zones
Rack and Drag Zones
All zones on the court
Positions in the half court
Simple Offensive Basics
Clinic Notes that have never been released on Vance Walberg, John Calipari, and Chucky Martin.
DDM Entry Sets:  Two and Three Digit sets
Bonus Footage:  DDM vs. Sagging Man Defense
Bonus Footage:  DDM vs. Zones
It is basically an eBook that covers all the little things that will make DDM run a lot better.  I have tried to cover most of the problems that people have.  It is basically “DDM for Dummies”, but with tons of details.
Sample:  Tip for DDM


Sample Tip:  DDM versus Sagging Man Defense


I hope that this eBook helps you out this season. It should clear up a lot of confusion about the “little things” that make dribble-drive motion offense tick. You need to check it out.

Buy this Special Teams Playbook now! 221 pages of Basketball information!

Tom Izzo, head basketball coach at Michigan State and football fanatic, has always stressed the importance of being detailed in every facet of the game.  You will see it all in this special teams playbook.

Drawing wisdom from Hall of Fame coaches, from Vince Lombardi to Mike Ditka, who have all stressed the importance and impact that “Special Teams” have on the outcome of games, Izzo firmly believes that “Special Teams” have been a key ingredient in the program’s success for decades.

Knowing that so many games are decided by one to two possessions or less and that the majority of NCAA Tournament games are decided by even less, there is increased focus on five areas that make up “Special Teams.”

1. Jump ball situations
2. Baseline out-of-bounds
3. Sideline out-of-bounds
4. Free throw situations
5. After time-out plays

In this Special Teams playbook, we examine three of these areas and what some of the most efficient teams of the past several years are running in these situations.

The special teams playbook contains 210 basketball plays from 40 different NCAA teams:

• After timeout (ATO) half court man offense,
• After timeout (ATO) half court zone offense,
• Baseline out of bounds (BLOBs) vs. man,
• Baseline out of bounds (BLOBs) vs. zone,
• Sideline out of bounds (SLOB).

Get this playbook now and use the plays used by some of NCAA’s best coaches like Mike Krzyzewski, Tom Izzo, Bo Ryan, Jay Wright, Tony Bennett, John Calipari, and many others.

Hey Coach!

I’m shifting gears on ya!

Admittedly, I’ve been hyper-focused on the defense lately.

It’s time to turn the ball over…as it were.

And I’m doing it with a brand new playbook!

I also think I started with the right guy…

Dana Altman may not get the same press as guys like Hall-of-Famers Mike Krzyzewski and Tom Izzo, but are you up to speed on his stats?

Coach Altman is one of only six active coaches in NCAA Division I with 22 consecutive winning seasons. (This group includes Krzyzewski and Izzo of course.)

He is the 34th head coach to record 600 career wins at the Division I level, and is the winningest head coach in Oregon history. In 2016-17, Altman led Oregon back to the Final Four for the first time in 78 years.

In addition to being 3 time Pac-12 Coach of the Year.

Works for me…

Anyway, here’s how I came at this one…it’s a bit different.

It’s called simply enough—Oregon Ducks Spread Offense.  I broke this one down into 5 sections.

Sections 2-5 are game breakdowns:

Arizona State
Washington
UC Irvine
And Virginia.
Not a bad group I’d say…

But what I really think you’re going to like is section 1.

(The whole thing is 115 total pages, btw!)

In this first section, I dive into things like:

10 Rules for Developing Offense
Philosophy (not enough time is spent here, in my humble opinion)
And then things like:

 Spacing
Dribble entry
UNC break
Pinch Post 
And a LOT more…

I like this approach and believe the end result is a much more “complete” playbook for you.

I suspect you’re going to like it, as well.

I wanted this to be something you’d want to print off and start to implement with your players ASAP.

So, if you’re looking to that little offensive “jolt” and think the Spread Offense could be the solution, grab this one ASAP.

See you courtside,

Scott “Spreading the love” Peterman

If you’re a coach, how good are you at “future pacing”?

Let me explain…

You know that sick feeling you can get when you think everyone else is up to speed on something, but you’ve somehow been left on the outside looking in?

It’s not fun.

You have this gaping knowledge gap and you feel silly.

You feel like everyone in the room knows something you don’t.

Well, today’s email is a bit unusual in that sense.

It’s not a playbook.

It’s not a video.

It’s not a collection of random tools for your coaching toolbox.

This is something beyond that…and something I’ve never done before.

Today we fill a knowledge gap. 

We’re actually doing something called “future pacing”…

This is a fancy way of saying you’re looking into the future, and seeing where things are going BEFORE they happen.

Sounds like a cool skill to have doesn’t it?

I turned to basketball playbook expert and “trend watcher” Chis Filios to put something together, the likes of which you have NOT seen previously.

Chris is a student of the game like few others…

And what he’s put together could be considered a “meta” playbook, if that makes sense.

Looking beyond the basic X’s and O’s and seeing the higher-level trends in the game.

Specifically, the defensive side of the game.

It’s called “Defensive Trends In College Basketball”…which frankly undersells what it’s all about.

In this playbook, you will find many of the latest defensive trends in basketball- from the NBA to Europe to college. Some of the best defensive teams in the world like the Golden State Warriors, Houston Rockets, Toronto Raptors, Valencia, Angola, Texas Tech, and many more are coming up with new schemes and “modernizing” old ones to fit how today’s game is played.  

Some specifics:

Modern twist on a classic- the “modern no middle”
Both basic and complex switching techniques for on-ball defense- “switch outs”, “jump switches”, “Ice” coverage, area switches

Advanced techniques on situational coverages against elite shooters and high level individual scores- situational hard denial, hip recovery forced drives, outside shoulder forced curls, denial of the boomerang pass, late clock iso run and doubles

New concepts in rotational defense- “Peel Switching” and “Jump Switches”
Did I grab your attention with this?

I certainly hope so…

If you also consider yourself a “student of the game” like Chris Filios, I can’t recommend this resource enough.

If you want to be comfortable with what’s coming…if you want to “future pace” so you’re ahead of the curve and NOT playing catch up, this is for you.

Never have that “on the outside looking in” feeling again…well, with basketball anyway ☺ .

Here’s the opportunity to something truly unique.

You’ll be happy you did.

See you courtside!

Coaches,

I have another new eBook to release to you. It is the Temple Match-up Zone Defense eBook. I have watched more than 100 hours of footage on the Temple Match-up Zone Defense. I have talked with former assistant coaches and players from Temple and compiled my notes into an eBook that is the only one on the market. You can’t find this information anywhere else. It took me over 40 hours to just put this eBook together and assemble it.

If you don’t know much about match-up zones then here you go. It is the “knuckleball of defenses.” You don’t see many people run a match-up zone all game so it is totally hard to prepare for it. Temple University’s basketball team use to spend at least sixty percent or more of practice on the zone and the rest on offense. Temple’s team in the NCAA Tournament was the one that opponents feared to face since it was so unique.

Here are some reasons to run it:
1. There are no holes in a match-up zone defense.
2. There is a greater awareness on help and ballside defense.
3. Constant ball pressure will reap benefits.
4. Zone doesn’t equal “rest.”
5. Time is on your side.
6. Teams never see it on a regular basis so it is hard to simulate in practice.
7. It wreaks havoc on post players.

“Wikipedia” vs “Encyclopedia” [Help me get this new playbook name right…]

NOTE:  I do have a brand new playbook I wanted to let you know about, but before we get to that, I had a technical question I need to ask you first...

If I present a digital product to you (like this playbook) can I still call it an “Encyclopedia”?  

Or

Am I showing my age whenever I do that?

After all, we know that “Wikipedia” is the online world’s version of the encyclopedia, so is the word “encyclopedia” itself passé?

I’d love to hear your input after you read the information below!

Anywhoo…

(I don’t want to get too off topic, but I want to be sure I’m staying up with the times. ☺ )

Back to the playbook!

You know how excited I get when I get to announce a new playbook.  

So here we go!  (Insert the sound of trumpets here…and a visual of pigeons being set free)

I now have my hands on a brand new playbook called the “Encyclopedia of Motion Offense”

140 pages long
Breakdown of ALL the sets of motion offense
With 28 pages dedicated to just drills

The Table of Contents goes like this:

Philosophy, Rules, and Organization
Reads After Passing
Screening Situations
Screening Actions
Concepts Versus Teams that Switch
Concepts – Playing off the Post
Secondary Actions
Half Court Sets From Motion Teams
Drills, Drills, Drills…

As the name implies, if it has ANYTHING to do with the Motion Offense, it’s in here!

Now, if you go to Wikipedia, you’ll find a discussion on the motion offense in basketball…history…references…variations…etc.

What you WON’T find is anything like this actual collection!

So…I think you can see the purpose of my original question…

For now, I’m sticking with “Encyclopedia of Motion Offense”  

The word still inspires that air of completeness, doesn’t it?

It might be audacious, but in this case, it DEFINITELY works.

See you courtside,

Click on the Faces in New Places 2017 Playbook today! It has 200 pages of basketball coaching information in this playbook.

At the end of every season, the news that dominates everyone’s attention is the coaching carousel. Who is getting fired? Who is getting hired? What coaches are leaving one job for another? What will the trickle down effect be?

For some coaches, they are looking to move up the ladder. For some, they are looking to get their first head-coaching job. Today, there is a lack of job security in coaching. So in some cases, a veteran coach will go for a change of scenery in hopes of more money, more security, or a return to a place they call home or their dream job. Whatever the situation, with the coaching change comes culture, philosophy, and tactical change.

This season, there are a number of coaching moves that have piqued my interest.

In the “Faces in New Places 2017” playbook, we examine 9 coaches who moved from one head-coaching job to another. The playbook features 190 plays from both veteran and rising coaches: Brad Underwood (Oklahoma State),
Bryce Drew (Vanderbilt), Chris Beard (Texas Tech), Jamie Dixon (TCU), Jerod Haase (Stanford), Josh Pastner (Georgia Tech), Kevin Stallings (Pitt), Steve Pikiell (Rutgers), and Tubby Smith (Memphis). These coaches have combined to win over 2,000 games in their careers and over 65% of their games.

Implement the man and zone sets, as well as baseline line out of bounds plays, that these coaches are utilizing to help push their new programs to higher levels of success.

We’ll see if these veterans can continue to have success at their new schools.

I am excited to announce the release of my newest ebook: “International Offensive Basketball Strategies: “Learn from the best coaches in the Euroleague, Eurocup, and Beyond”. I have spent a lot of time and energy breaking down set plays, transition sets, sideline out of bounds plays, and baseline out of bounds plays. I have really been interested in Ettore Messina (Formerly – C.S.K.A. Moscow, now Real Madrid). I have found out that there are some tremendous basketball coaches in the United States as well as abroad. I became extremely interested in their teachings once I started to view their games. I hope that you enjoy this ebook.

What is Euroleague? Here is the definition from Wikipedia:

“The Euroleague (EL) is the highest level and most important professional basketball competition in Europe, with teams from up to 18 different European countries. The competition is operated by ULEB, a Europe-wide consortium of leading professional basketball leagues. Clubs from Turkey, mostly located in Asia, and Israel, entirely within Asia, are also part of the system.
The league usually, but not always, includes domestic champions from the leading countries. Depending on the country, places in the Euroleague may be awarded on the basis of:

• Performance in the previous season’s domestic league.
• Performance over the previous two or three domestic seasons.
• Contracts with ULEB.
• In addition, the winner of the previous season’s Eurocup receives a place.

For example, two 2007-08 domestic champions from ULEB member countries did not compete in the 2008-09 Euroleague—Zadar (Croatia) and Hapoel Holon (Israel). Zadar played in the second-level Eurocup in 2008-09. Hapoel Holon, however, did not compete in any of the three European continental club competitions—not even the third-tier EuroChallenge (which is run by FIBA Europe instead of ULEB).
Starting with the 2009–10 season, the entrance criteria have been dramatically changed:

Thirteen clubs, chosen via a formula based on competitive performance, television revenues, and home attendance, receive “A Licences”, giving them automatic entry into the Euroleague Regular Season phase. A Licences are awarded for three years, meaning that the next adjustment of A Licences will not take place until 2012–13.

• Eight clubs receive one-year “B Licences” into the Euroleague Regular Season. Seven of them are directly based on the ranking of the domestic league in which the club competes. The eighth is a three-year “wildcard” licence based on similar factors to the A Licences; the first such licence was awarded to ASVEL Basket of France.

• The winner of the previous year’s Eurocup receives a one-year “C Licence” into the Euroleague Regular Season. If the club qualifies for a direct B Licence into the Regular Season via its domestic league, the C Licence will be awarded to the club not already qualified for the Regular Season that is highest on the Euroleague entry list.

• Eight other clubs receive one-year “B Licences” into the Euroleague qualifying rounds, with two advancing into the Regular Season. ”

Example of the Playbook:

So what you will be viewing:

69 Set Plays
7 Transition Sets
2 Sideline out of bounds plays
2 Baseline out of bounds plays

These sets come from 14 Euroleague teams, 8 Eurocup teams, and many other club teams across Europe.

Example of Set Plays:

If you love pick and roll basketball then this ebook will be great for you. It made me start thinking about different ways to attack basketball teams and expand my offensive views. You will be viewing some of the best set plays that Europe has to offer.

Coach Peterman

Coaches,

I am proud to present the “Triangle Offense Playbook” to you. I have taken the best ideas of the triangle offense that was run in Chicago and Los Angeles and put them together.

Definition according to wikipedia on Triangle Offense :http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle_offense

“The Triangle Offense, also known as the Triple-Post offense, is an offensive strategy in basketball. Its basic ideas were initially established by Hall of Fame coach Sam Barry at the University of Southern California. His system was later refined by former Kansas State University head basketball coach and current Los Angeles Lakers consultant Tex Winter, who played for Barry in the late 1940s.

The system’s most important feature is the sideline triangle created between the center, who stands at the low post; the forward, at the wing, and the guard at the corner. The team’s other guard stands at the top of the key and the weak-side forward is on the weak-side high post — together forming the “two-man game”.

The goal of the offense is to fill those five spots, which creates good spacing between players and allows each one to pass to four teammates. Every pass and cut has a purpose and everything is dictated by the defense.”

It is an offense that can be run when you don’t have great post players.  The Chicago Bulls had Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen, but not a great post player.  If you have post players like the Los Angeles Lakers do with Paul Gasol and Andrew Bynum then you could incorporate it.  Just watch the NBA Finals and see for yourself.

This playbook has 40 Different Actions, 35 Different Set Plays, and 25 Out of bound Plays consisting of blobs, slobs, or last second plays.  It has 100 different plays and is over 100 pages long.  If you want to add a wrinkle from the Triangle offense then here you go.  If you want to incorporate the whole thing.  You will have it also.

I hope that you enjoy this playbook.

Coach Peterman

Are you looking for an offense that is built on versatility? Do you have a roster of players that are interchangeable? Do you lack a real low post threat? Then the Spread Offense Playbook is for you.

The Spread Offense is a position-less offense that is perfect for teams that have interchangeable pieces that excel at all spots and big men that are skilled, who can drive, pass, and shoot. It can be a matchup nightmare for opponents. It is designed to spread the defense out, pulls opponents, big men, away from the rim, makes them guard on the perimeter, and take advantage of mismatches.

In this Spread Offense playbook, you will receive 90 pages of Spread Offense from two of the hottest coaches in the NCAA- Oklahoma State’s Brad Underwood and Oregon’s Dana Altman.

Brad Underwood has used the Spread Offense to rise in his head-coaching career. Underwood came to OSU following a three-year stay at Stephen F. Austin that ranks as one of the best starts to a head-coaching career in college basketball history. With his most recent NCAA Tournament run at SFA, Underwood improved his career record to 89-14, tied with Coach Brad Stevens for the most wins by a head coach in his first three seasons at a NCAA school. While winning three consecutive Southland Conference Coach of the Year titles, Coach Brad Underwood led SFA Lumberjacks to the two longest winning streaks in Southland Conference history. Coach Underwood piled up a 53-1 record in conference play during his three years in Nacogdoches, Texas. Coach Underwood was on every athletic director’s list that was hiring coaches when his team beat the VCU Rams in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Coach Underwood was known for defensive at SFA, but they had a great assist-oriented offense there. The Oklahoma State Cowboys are currently ranked second in the country in Adjusted Offense at 125.3 points per 100 possessions.

Dana Altman’s Oregon Ducks have ranked in the top ten and one win away from winning the Pac 12 Conference in back to back seasons. Coach Altman has 19 consecutive winning season and is in elite status from doing just that. The only coaches that have completed that task are Tom Izzo, Roy Williams, Bill Self, Jim Boeheim, and Mike Krzyzewski. Coach Altman won more games in his six seasons at Oregon than any other coach. He is 154-64 at Oregon and 564-307 for his career at Marshall, Kansas State, Creighton, and Oregon. He has guided the Ducks to six 20 win seasons, and that includes four consecutive NCAA Tournaments. Coach Altman’s teams have been in the Elite Eight and two sweet sixteen appearances.

Mike Dunlap is renowned in basketball coaching circles for his D2 Championships, his NBA experience and his work in the Big East, Pac 12 and international leagues. This Dvd takes a detailed look at a critical component to the success of any basketball team. Coach Dunlap breaks down the defensive transition into seven key areas. Also included are several primary drills that Coach Dunlap (St. John’s University) used when working on the defensive transition. The DVD contains quality practice footage which helps to illustrate the points that are being made. This is an excellent DVD that would be an asset to men’s and women’s coaches of all levels.

As you know by now… the Cavaliers are #1 for the first time since 1982, with Coach Tony Bennett leading the charge.

Let’s see… Only coach to win 16 conference games in consecutive seasons in ACC history. One of three to achieve back-to-back 30-win seasons. 2-time National Coach of the Year.

You get the idea… It’s not a huge surprise to most since Coach Tony Bennett has been regarded as the best defensive coach in college basketball for years, but… Just as important – his motion offense is incredibly efficient.

Well, this week, we’ve broken down his “blocker mover” offense for you, and explained it all in the info-packed 82-page “encyclopedia.”

• Scoring Areas
• Screening Breakdowns
• Half Court Zone Offense
• Post Play
• Drills
• Personnel

And more… It’s all here…

A Match-Up Zone is a defensive strategy in which the defense starts in a zone formation, but plays the offensive players man to man when they enter the defensive player’s area. There is no one in the defensive player’s area then he usually stays true to his one.

Former Temple University Coach John Chaney was well known for his match-up zone defense. It is said that offenses had a hard time telling what his match-up zone defense was because they disguised it and conformed it to the offensive formation of the opposing team.

I have watched tons of NBA Basketball teams and believed that this match-up zone is the ultimate match-up zone defense. I believe that is the case because it deals with every scenario when it comes to a ball screen and all the different pick and rolls.

This match-up zone defense will help develop your player’s communication, stop great scorers, great scoring teams, employ man defense principles, and be difficult to scout. It can be used with big and small teams.

This NBA Match-up Zone can be utilized on the College and High School levels with ease. You will have the ability to confuse your opponents with a new wrinkle in the late half of the basketball season and especially for the play-offs.
You will understand how to “match-up” and cause confusion for the zone offense. It will disrupt their offensive flow.

I hope that you enjoy this “Ultimate” Match-up Zone Defense Playbook and that it produces wins for you in the play-offs.

Looking to win more games with a tougher defense? 

Yes, I have a “defensive” mindset lately.

The word “obsessed” seems a bit strong, but whatever…

Like you, I’m just blissfully aware that a “shut down” defense creates WAY more opportunities for my offense.

With the season bearing down on us, I wanted to make sure you had all the resources you need to revamp your defense before the season starts if you have to.

And here’s a guy I listen to when I’m looking to make some improvements…

I see him this way…

“Aggressive” and “Fast-Paced” are some of the terms you hear to describe Frank Martin’s defense at South Carolina.

(Coach Martin was voted 2017 Jim Phelan National Coach of the Year for a reason.)

Now I have released a playbook that corrals everything he does...

What will you learn?

• Learn drills that build wing ball screen defense and force players to rely on their communication and rotations for a stop
   
• See how to defend various screening actions in a 4-on-4 setting, including UCLA (smash), inside; and stagger screens
   

Of course, that’s just a partial description…

It’s tough to sum up a full-on 100+  playbook covering all areas. 

I guess, like everything else Coach Martin does, this one is over the top.

Well, I’ll do my best to boil it down for you…

The playbook is broken up like this:

Defense Set up
Post Defense 
Open Court Situations
Ball Screen Coverage
Defending Screens
Transition Defense

If you KNOW you need to shore up your defense, this is how to do it.

Who doesn’t want to be known for having a “smothering” defense?  It frustrates your opponent and creates a flood of offensive opportunities.

I love this style of play…and I suspect you will, as well.

Scott “all about the D” Peterman

P.S.  Just a reminder…Coach Tube  ALWAYS has a 100% money-back guarantee.  Plus you get full lifetime access to the playbook

In 1994, Coach Nolan Richardson and the Arkansas Razorbacks put the world of college basketball through Hell. They would be on you for 40 Minutes, 94 Feet, constantly…. Most teams would say that is “40 Minutes of Hell”. It’s how they played basketball. They never got the elite basketball recruit at Arkansas. Anyone can play this style of defense if they sell their players on it. Oliver Miller wasn’t a big time recruit and he got drafted in the first round and played with the NBA Phoenix Suns.

Pressure, Pressure, Pressure….. They were on you for 40 minutes. Anyone can play defense, you don’t have to have shooting skills to play defense. You can’t be a coward to play defense. It’s all about mental toughness. Can your team play at this frezny rate? Are you will to sell out and play this system of basketball that the players rave about, but don’t want to condition for?

You are going to have your team, scraping, running, shooting, and diving for loose balls. It’s the most natural way to play the game of basketball. You will get your teams to attack, attack, attack. It’s going to be Hell for the other team.

The drills, all the conditioning, and the running….. your team will be ready for the season. It’s a mental game and the reward is winning a championship at the end.

It’s non-stop action, running up and down.. running up and down. Pressing and running.  Your team can learn this Full Court Pressing System.

This system helped Coach Richardson to win the NJCAA National Championship at Western College in Synder, Texas. That season helped him get the job at the University of Tulsa. He won big at the University of Tulsa and in 1985, the University of Arkansas offered him the Head Men’s Basketball Coaching Position with them.

It’s a style of play that you can win with…

When Lebron calls you a “genius”, people take notes

There was a good bit of focus on the Boston Celtics this week…not all of it positive.

Kemba Walker had a really awkward collision with a teammate Semi Ojeleye.  Hitting Semi in the chest and bending his neck at a scary angle.  He’ll be OK and fortunately joined the team for the flight home. 

I’m guessing most of you saw the play.

But there were some tense moments for sure, and his diagnosis was positive for a concussion…

Anyway, as I was reading the coverage of the incident, I came across some additional—and completely unrelated—articles.

(I’ve mentioned on more than one occasion that I have a soft spot in my heart for the Celtics, so I found myself going off on a reading tangent.)

Several of the articles focused on one truly impressive trait on display by Head Coach Brad Stevens.

In fact, Lebron James made sure his opinion was publicly known…

He called Brad Stevens a “genius” at this particular skill (his actual words).

No small compliment coming from one of the all-time greats.

This skill?  

ATO plays.

After reading LeBron’s quote, I went off on yet another tangent…

And here’s where you get to benefit. 😊 

I started reviewing clips…

Taking some notes…

Sketching some diagrams…

And next thing you know, I’ve got a collection of no less that 95 ATO plays designed by Coach Stevens.

Think about this…

How many times are you watching a game and the final 1 to 3 seconds depends ENTIRELY on an ATO play?

I mean, the W or the L depends of the play call.  It happens like a gazillion times per season. Right?

High school, college, NBA…it doesn’t matter.  

ATO plays win games.

So…

Being the clever guy I am, I figured learning from a genius at this skill might be as interesting to you as it was to me. 

Am I right?

So here you go…

Are you looking past the simple solution for your team?

Hi Coach,

We’re all guilty of over complicating things from time to time…

I know I am.

Call it “shiny object syndrome” if you want…

As coaches, we should be striving to make things simpler, not more complex.

Just because some coach who’s on a winning streak puts out a new way to do things, do NOT mean we should all rush out and do it.

Am I right?

Let me give you an example.

The Open Post is a great offense.  It’s used at nearly every level of the game.

But a lot of coaches I talk to are looking past it for some other solution…

The one the “cool kids” are using.

Let’s slow down for a second and look at this again.

Here are 5 reasons why you should consider the Open Post if you don’t use it already…(and if you do, how you can use it in more situations)

If you have a small (but quick) team, the Open Post should be your best friend.  You’ll need to exploit your opponents weaknesses in order to win.  
You can turn your undersized players into an advantage, by removing the the low post threats and capitalizing on your perimeter play.
Directly related to the above: If you have good penetrators and outside shooters (or can develop them) this becomes a no-brainer
When you need to, you can slow the games down and take one advantage away from a bigger, more athletic team.  Delay, delay, delay.
It’s a breeze to learn and teach for younger players who haven’t reached a certain level of sophistication or maturity yet.

All of this sounds like solid reasoning for the Open Post to be used a TON in high school or youth sports.

I hope you agree.

If so--and you’ve read this far--I have a surprise for you!

I’ve got the “primer” on the Open Post in a brand new playbook for you...based on the guy who I think “owns” the open post.

West Virginia Head Coach Bob Huggins.

I’ve put together 125 pages of breakdowns and game situations for you!

It looks like this:

Open Post breakdown
Game analysis for Kansas (a BIG part of this playbook)
Oklahoma
Texas Tech (yup!)
And an added section on the WV defense.

After reading through this playbook, I hope you’ll see this option for what it is.  A simple, easy-to-implement solution for high school and youth teams.

Let’s NOT over complicate things…

West Virginia Offensive/Defensive Playbook

Here’s what to do BEFORE spring gets here…[Ultimate Checklist!]

Hey Coach!

I’ll admit this upfront…

If I don’t write something down, it ceases to exist as far as my brain is concerned.

I rely heavily on lists and organizational tools.

That may be the teacher in me, but whatever the reason, I need structure to make the best use of my day…(who doesn’t!)

So when I saw this tool, I was floored.

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for.

I mean, every coach has a plan they go through to prep for their post-season “rituals”, but I’ve NEVER seen anything as detailed as this.

I literally put aside the forms and notes I’ve been using for years, and replaced them with this “secret weapon”.

Coach Derek Sheridan, who runs the show at Delta HS in Ohio, is my new favorite guy.

He’s gone over and above with this 39-page basketball-specific post-season planning tool.

This stuff is GOLD!

Anyway, he’s charging $17  for the whole thing!  

However, he did succeed in making it a “no brainer”…

 Anyway, I’m all in with this one.

See you courtside,

Scott “let me write this down” Peterman

Discover how to relentlessly ATTACK even the most unforgiving defenses (and have them at your mercy) using George Karl’s proven version of the “Dribble Drive Motion Offense” system.

Gain access to the EXACT plays used by NBA powerhouse Denver Nuggets to become one of the fastest teams on the planet!

There’s something to be said about watching fast-paced teams play…
…you look at teams like the Phoenix Suns (when they had Nash/Stoudemire), Oklahoma City Thunder, Miami Heat, Los Angeles Clippers…..

They all move the ball up and down the court within a matter of seconds and the offensive action and ball movement never stops.

I don’t care what kind of defense you’re up against; if you have them scrambling from side-to-side, trying to guard against penetration and then rushing towards the 3-point line to contest outside jumpers…
…your team’s offense is winning the battle.

Of course, you have to make the shots to actually put points up on the board, but the more shots you get at the rim after breaking through their defensive perimeter…
...the more opportunities you give yourself to score….time and time again.

So how do you accomplish this?

Well, George Karl and the Denver Nuggets know a thing or two about it. They are attacking the rest of the NBA with a dynamic dribble-drive offense that was made popular by Vance Walberg. George Karl hired Vance Walberg as a Full Time NBA Assistant Coach this past offseason.

A former high school and college coach, Walberg is the innovator of what’s called the dribble-drive motion offense. Walberg would put four players on the perimeter and, as one player attacked the basket, the offensive post player would open space by moving to the weak side of the lane. Meanwhile, the other three perimeter players would rotate accordingly. If that particular dribble-drive play failed, the next ball handler would just dribble and drive again.

Once seen as wacky, the dribble-drive offense has helped turn John Calipari-coached teams into collegiate powerhouses. The Nuggets use dribble-drive concepts in about 50 percent of their offense, Coach George Karl said. Constant motion is the key to the success of the dribble-drive offense.

The facts don’t lie…here’s what the Nuggets are enjoying right now:

1) The Nuggets are getting to the rim more than any team in the league.

The best shot in basketball is at the rim, and the Nuggets take 33.2 shots per game at the rim.

2) The Nuggets shoot few mid-range jumpers.

The most inefficient shot in half-court basketball is a contested long 2-pointer.

3) The Nuggets are the fastest paced team in the league.

The Nuggets are using 97.4 possessions per game. Playing faster means easy buckets in transition and open shots and lanes to the rim while defenses scramble to get set. Karl has drilled his players to catch and go–no killing grass with the dribble. In practice, players have to shoot, pass, or attack within 3 seconds of catching the ball or it’s a turnover. Learning to play fast like this keeps defenses on their heels.

4) The Nuggets fill the perimeter with 3-point shooters.

While the Suns and Nuggets shoot a similar amount of threes, the Nuggets tend to have more 3-point shooting wings on the court at a time. When the Nuggets run a pick-and-roll, they are much more likely than the Suns to have decent 3-point shooters dotting the perimeter at the 2, 3, and 4 positions. The effect isn’t actually that they shoot more threes, but that they are able to get to the rim easier. Spacing with shooters opens up lanes into the paint.

Doesn’t it sound like your team’s offense could benefit from this system?

I’ve packaged together some killer plays from the Denver Nuggets playbook – the same exact ones they’re using on the floor each and every game.

Here’s what you’re going to instantly get access to:
•  Learn the Denver Nuggets' top 9 plays to score
•  Find out what they do on transition offense (22 different breaks)
•  Look at the 44 different half-court set plays that they run
•  Walk through the 9 sideline out of bounds plays that they use
•  See how they score with the six baseline out of bounds plays

Instantly get your hands on over 80 winning plays in total!

Listen, the fact is…..
...no matter what level you coach at or what your experience is, you will love what’s inside. That is, if you want to experience what it’s like to see opposing coaches scratching their heads trying to figure out how their defensive game plan failed them so miserably.

If only they knew our little secret.

In a nutshell, you’re getting everything you need to start seeing results right away – and if you ever need to refresh your memory on the inner guts of a specific play, all you need to do is just double-click your electronic playbook and voila – it’s instantly ready to be dissected.

Today is a good day!

Whenever I get my hands on a brand new playbook – especially one this thorough – it makes my day.

Seriously…

And the “playbook gods” outdid themselves on this one.

Below is the link to nothing less than the MOST COMPLETE dissection of the Pick and Roll Defense in our industry.

Bar none.

I’ve already gone through this thing cover to cover.  

This thing is NOT just a list of plays…

It goes a lot further than that.

This playbook goes on to break down the roles of each key player on the court…exactly what the ball handler and screener MUST do to make the PNR work.

Along with the drills section, this playbook is appropriate for new coaches and veterans alike.

Nothing’s left out…here are some samples:

Ok, all kidding aside…

I know I’m gushing a bit…You’d think Jennifer Aniston just walked in the room or something!

(Hey, don’t judge me.)

This really is 181 pages of “nothing else like this out there” kind of stuff. 

I know you’re going to enjoy this one!

I want you to enjoy this one as much as I did when I first saw it.  

The Rockets now have faith in their system now after they just had a 55-win season and number three seed happen this year. Everything is based off shot selection and the way that they play. The players believe that their shots are going in and that the system will take them to the NBA championship.

The NBA Houston Rockets are a basketball laboratory that is conducting experiments using the boundaries of current offensive efficiency. The Houston franchise set three-point records and don't take mid-range shots this past year. The NBA has been trending in this direction for years, and the Rockets have taken the movement by storm. The NBA Houston Rockets shot 500 more threes than the Cleveland Cavaliers who shot the second-most threes this season. They only took 579 mid-range shots inside the arc this year which was the lowest among all 30 teams. Four players around the NBA have taken more mid-range shots than the Houston Rockets.

The Rockets push the tempo and don't have a traditional big man who helps them to have a quicker pace than the other team is use to playing. The Rockets had the fifth best offensive rating of all time. Mike D'Antoni says that they can play a lot better. When they hired Mike D'Antoni and his Seven Seconds or less offense from the mid-2000s Phoenix Suns, they have had success this year. The three point shot is a HUGE weapon now.

Coach D'Antoni has James Harden playing point guard which he had never done. D'Antoni used all his tricks and convinced him that he would be great at it. James Harden was the first player to score and assist for 2,000 points in a season. Harden's playmaking help players like Ryan Anderson and Eric Gordon, who could hit the three point shot. If the defense shifts to help, then they could spot up behind the three-point line and knock it down. If the defense stayed home, Capela could dunk on the roll. Harden had two choices: open threes or easy dunks.

This offensive playbook will allow you to ramp up your offense even higher with scoring more points and launching open three point shots. This system is built on analytics. You don't need superstars to hit open shots.

This system will allow you to have runs against all kinds of talented teams. There is a science to the madness. This mathematical strategy is proven that Threes are better than Twos. This NBA Houston Rockets approach to the three-point will allow your team to position your team better for next year. The data-driven approach is proven by tangible evidence and grounded in mathematics.

The title says it all – this a multi-dimensional approach to both offense and defense drilling that adds the most important aspect of all – competition via time and score. Utilizing a rapid fire 3-on-3 half-court approach, Coach Mike Dunlap details how to use this drill to Teach Offense and to Teach Defense through dry running, and ultimately Competition. Rewarding proper actions and penalizing negative actions via the whistle, and by adding elements and emphasizing various points during the course of the actions, any coach can fine-tune the basics to fit his teachings and his personnel. This is a player-favorite and success-proven drill that can be used at any level of the game.

I want to introduce the newest eBook in the Basketball Secrets Unleashed: NBA Princeton Offense Playbook. It is a playbook comprised of NBA Princeton sets from the New Jersey Nets, Sacramento Kings, and Washington Wizards of the NBA. It isn’t an ebook designed to “install the princeton offense”. It has 103 sets that are run by these teams. It doesn’t have the drills to run the Princeton Offense.

Example Princeton Offense sets:

NBA Princeton Playbook

This NBA Princeton Playbook is a playbook designed from how the Princeton Offense is run in the NBA. All of the ideas came from teams that ran the Princeton offense. The plays came from the teams that has used the Princeton offense.

The Princeton Offense is known for strongly emphasizing the fundamentals of good shooting, passing, and back-door cuts. The offense takes a high level of basketball intelligence to run it. It is a five part play that takes fifteen seconds to run. The goal of the Princeton offense isn’t to run clock. The goal is to break down the defense, because of lack of discipline on defense. The Princeton off works against both man and zone defenses, and not just against man defense.

The NBA Princeton offense is different than typically run Princeton offenses. This playbook has typical NBA sets like post-up and pick-n-roll sets. It is the mixture of sets that help the NBA athletes along with the combination of Princeton principles that work on any level.

Before the 2001 season, the New Jersey Nets were coming off a 26-56 losing season. They went from an East Coast Conference doormat to the NBA finals. They finished 13th in scoring in the NBA and had five starters averaging double figures.

Sports Illustrated: “The Princeton offense is old-style basketball. Dribble, pass and shoot. I always thought it’s the way the game was supposed to be played.”

The strength of the offense is about being unselfish and the fact that everyone touches the ball. You can tweak the offense as much as you want to tweak it, but it helps everyone succeed. It has a lot of movement and even if one player is scoring, the other four players play a huge role in helping that process.

The positions of the offense are two guards, two forwards, and a center. The guard and forward spots are interchangeable; the center is the only position that is not. The offense revolves around the center and he doesn’t have to be a low block scorer. In the Princeton offense, there are always counter attacks. If they take away one option then there is always another option.

Washington Wizards head in 200l and put the Princeton offense in their attack. Here are the results from their scoring:

2003-04: 18th in the NBA in scoring (91.8 PPG)
2004-05: 6th in the NBA in scoring (100.5 PPG)
2005-06: 3rd in the NBA in scoring (101.7)

Table of Contents:

Half-court sets: 74 Plays
Early Offense: 5 Plays
Pick & Roll: 10 Plays
Post-Up sets: 14 Plays

Total: 103 Plays

I hope that you enjoy this playbook and you are able to use the Princeton offense for your team this season or just get a couple new ideas/wrinkles for your team.

Packline Defense Rules are an effective strategy to beat it!

What are the Pack-Line Defense Rules?
The Pack-Line Defense Rules are an offensive basketball strategy that can be employed to beat the effectiveness of this defense. The pack-line defense rules are layed out in this 180 page “Attack the Pack” Playbook.

What is the Pack-Line Defense?
Dick Bennett made the Pack-line defense famous when he coached for the Washington State University Cougars, and his son Tony Bennett uses it now. Several other NCAA D1 coaches that use the pack-line defense are Chris Mack (Xavier) and Sean Miller (Arizona)

What is the Pack-Line Defense trying to accomplish?
The pack line defense pressures the basketball while the other four defensive men stay inside a line around the 17-foot mark away from the basket. The off-ball defensive members try to give help on dribble-drive and stop the kick and shoot. Too many coaches think that they can shoot enough three-point shots to beat the pack-line defense. The Pack defenders try to play cutters and screens with passion and try to force a slower tempo with fewer offensive possessions.

You will want to buy this “Attack the Pack” Playbook! Most high schools run some version of the pack-line defense. Don’t you want to know what to do when the pack-line defense is physical and well-positioned with your team?

It’s no fun to play the pack-line defense, but now you will know how to attack it. Check it out today!

Coaches,

Here is my newest eBook in the Basketball Secrets Unleashed Series: “7 seconds or less” offensive playbook. This offensive playbook consists of the secondary break, quick hitters, and half-court sets that have been developed by the Phoenix Suns and New York Knicks. It has a tremendous wealth of knowledge on how they would play the Run and Gun style that has been bought to Phoenix and New York.

You have to get your players to buy into this up-tempo style. Everyone loves to play up-tempo, but it takes getting your players into tremendous shape. This style of offense will be something that your players can buy into really quickly. It will be great for you, your players, and fans. Administrators want an up-tempo game, because they can sell it better to the fans.

This offensive system comes to New York after helping take the Phoenix Suns to four straight 50-plus win seasons and three Pacific Division Championships. This playbook is the high-octane offensive game that made the Suns one of the most dynamic and crowd-pleasing teams in recent NBA history.

After the Olympics, the Coach of Duke incorporated some of the NBA coach’s innovative offensive techniques to allow Duke to spread the floor and maximize the talent of its wing players, most notably Gerald Henderson and Kyle Singler. You will be able to see this Duke Offense during the next several weeks of March Madness.

SI.com’s Jack McCallum writes that Mike D’Antoni is “the man credited with reinvigorating fast-break basketball in a league gone stale.”

This playbook has 104 plays in it and is 168 pages long. I hope that you enjoy this eBook and understand that this is an extremely up-tempo game and a style of play that could take your team to the next level. I hope that you enjoy.

Brad Stevens and the Boston Celtics aren’t using one particular system like the Princeton Offense or Read & React Offense. They are using parts of all the best systems and piecing it together to make it all original.

Pete Carril associates to the Princeton Offense, just like Tex Winter with the Triangle Offense. Phil Jackson is known for using the Triangle offense when he coached with the Chicago Bulls and Los Angeles Lakers.

This Brad Stevens Half Court Offense uses a ton of-of attack options with the best thing being ball movement. The Half Court Offense starts when they begin each possession.

The Triangle Offense and Princeton Offense have a post player and guard on the weak side. The other players are on the strong side and can pass the ball to the weak side position player who would trigger a two man game. The other players would make a series of movement that isolates the wing, which is usually the best player.

The Triangle Offense won because they would usually have skilled basketball players like Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant playing in that system. They were best in isolation.

Brad Stevens doesn’t have great players on his team. He got creative and had come up with an incredibly uptempo game plan that is very effective against today’s NBA defense. Most NBA teams run the (ICE) defense on the pick & roll. The Boston Celtics Offense was created to use his player’s strengths and not their weaknesses. Pace and Space are what most NBA analysts call Brad Steven’s Offense.

Pace and Space

Pace means the tempo of the basketball game. Pace also means the number of offensive possession in an NBA game being 48 minutes. The Boston Celtics played at the fifth highest speed last season. They averaged 98.4 possessions every 48 minutes.

Space means the team’s ability to stretch out the defense on offense. You have to maximize your spacing to get three point options on the floor. If you can draw post defenders outside the lane, then you will open up the paint for cutters and higher percentage shots near the basket.

Brad Stevens used his “Pace and Space” Offense to make one of the league’s most exciting offenses out there. They are extremely efficient in scoring while they have a limited team in overall talent. The Boston Celtics were able to land an NBA playoff berth last year.

The NBA Three-Point Options

Stretch Four Post Players are getting more common in the NBA. They can bring their defender out on the floor and make the defense spaced out. If you have a stretch four that can shoot the ball, then you will win HUGE.

This Pace and Space Offense will have something that you can use on your team to create space and play winning basketball. Check it out today! You will want this basketball coaching playbook in your coaching library. Make sure to check out Brad Stevens and the Boston Celtics this season.

[Just Released] The entire Dayton Flyers Basketball Playbook 

The Dayton Flyers were powered by an efficient, high-flying (pun intended) offense, rolling through the A-10 with an undefeated league record.

And there’s a reason for that…

The man at the helm is Head Coach Anthony Grant.  Coach Grant was an assistant coach for Billy Donovan and the Oklahoma City Thunder. Still, his offensive scheme has decidedly college roots; Dayton primarily runs a version of the Continuity Ball Screen offense that has spread around the entire D1 level.

Well…

It just so happens, we now have access to the Dayton Flyers Basketball Playbook.

And the name could not be more accurate.

This just-released playbook contains EVERYTHING you need to know about this incredibly effective approach – as it is employed by Coach Anthony Grant at the University of Dayton.

Win more tight games with these 82 clutch plays

Hi Coach,

Not every sport is known for tight finishes. 

In baseball or soccer, it’s a rarity…

Football has a good number of them, but basketball seems to crank out tight finishes, week in and week out.

How many games have we seen come down to less than one second?

If you think about it, there must have been countless arguments over an “expired clock” before they went to tenths of a second and video?!

Since we know we’re going to be on the court with the game on the line at some point…and most likely will have only seconds to get the job done, it’s vital you have a reliable set of “clutch plays” in your pocket.

To that end, we scoured plays from the ACC, Big 10, Big 12, Pac 12 and a long list of mid-majors, to come up with the cream of the crop.

We wanted to find the very best, perfectly-executed game-winners.

It was a chore to get them down to 82.  

Believe me…

We then put them all into one playbook,  so you could scan them and build out your own collection of “go to” plays.

Depending upon your personnel and player skill levels, you’re guaranteed to find a set in which you can be 100% confident.

I have them all listed alphabetically, in case you want to go right to your favorites.

From Air Force to Xavier and everything in between…

Baylor, Clemson, Dayton, Gonzaga, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Oklahoma, etc., etc.

You get the idea…

And since we’re now entering “that time of year”, I figured there was no better time to roll this out to you.

With conference titles and playoff berths on the line, you KNOW we’re in for a plethora of tight finishes…

I can’t wait.

Anyway, if you want to be ideally prepared with a few “show-stopping” clutch plays, here’s your one-of-a-kind collection.

Officially the name is much longer, but “Clutch Plays” works…

See you courtside,

What do you know about the Brooklyn Nets Offense and its second-year coach, Kenny Atkinson?

Coach Atkinson has developed the Brooklyn Nets Offense into a player-friendly read and attack system. I think that the Nets Offense is a glimpse into the future, so you better check it out. If you aren’t running this offense, then you will be defending against it soon.

Last year, the Brooklyn Nets led the NBA in pace and ranked high in other offense-volume statistics. Coach Atkinson has developed a system that can be used even with roster turnover in future basketball seasons.

The Brooklyn Nets Offense uses ball movement, spacing, and teamwork. There are no set plays, but the only initial movement. The Nets have to read the defense to find the best shot for their team. Each different set has numerous options in it.

160 NBA Actions for you to digest! Buy it here!

Where does the Brooklyn Nets Offense come from?

The primary system comes from Mike Budenholzer. Several of the Nets' key actions come from the Atlanta Hawks Playbook, but with their own Brooklyn style. Coach Atkinson runs a motion offense that is free-flowing and very fast paced. The coaches encourage each player to shoot his shot if he is open.

Most of the Brooklyn Nets Offense has two primary actions: strong and weak.

In the strong set, they reverse the ball side to side, with a post player on the block and the wing in the opposite corner.

The weak set is where the post-up player and corner player are on the same side of the court. This type of set will allow a quick point guard to open up the offense.

The Nets Offense will also use the Horns set, pick and pop, and pick and roll type sets.

The main thing that I noticed from the Nets offense is that encourages players to create and attack the defense. Any player can bring the ball up and start up the offense. Some big men even bring the ball up. There are no bad shots, just bad decisions.

Coach Kenny Atkinson’s offense doesn’t limit players, but it expands their game, and the players welcome it.

Why should your team look at this Brooklyn Nets Offense?

The Nets are treating this NBA franchise like a “program.” They are following the San Antonio Spurs approach where you can plug anyone in their system, and they can run it. The offense is involved, but it will pay off in the end for your team.

Kenny Atkinson comes from the Gregg Popovich coaching tree and is a child of the Mike D’Antoni tree too. The offense will be the fastest pace in the NBA. This attack will allow a team that is devoid of stars and sheet talent to succeed.

The Brooklyn Nets are finally modern. It’s your time now!

At the end of every season, the news that dominates everyone’s attention is the coaching carousel. Who is getting fired? Who is getting hired? What coaches are leaving one job for another? What will the trickle-down effect be? 

For some coaches, they are looking to move up the ladder. For some, they are looking to get their first head-coaching job. Today, there is a lack of job security in coaching. So in some cases, a veteran coach will go for a change of scenery in hopes of more money, more security, or a return to a place they call home or their dream job. Whatever the situation, with the coaching change, comes culture, philosophy, and tactical change. 

In the “Faces in New Places 2016” playbook, we examine 9 coaches who moved from one head-coaching job to another. The playbook features 226 plays from both veteran and rising coaches:  Avery Johnson (Alabama), Ben Howland (Mississippi State), Bobby Hurley (Arizona State), Chris Mullin (St. John’s), Mike White (Florida), Rick Barnes (Tennessee), Shaka Smart (Texas), Steve Prohm (Iowa State), and Will Wade (VCU). 

Implement the man and zone sets, as well as baseline line out of bounds plays, that these coaches are utilizing to help push their new programs to higher levels of success.

A defensive star rises:  [The Yaklich Story]

Sometimes it’s kinda cool to see “one of your own” go all the way to the top.

This is one of those stories.

Many of you know the tale of Luke Yaklich.

Seven or eight years ago, he was a high school teacher…like so many of us.

But by mastering one particular skill set, he clawed his way up to Michigan Basketball. 

Then the winds of fortune blew…

Pieces shuffled on the collegiate and NBA chessboard…

John Beilein makes the jump to the Cleveland Cavaliers (still inexplicable to me, but whatever).  

Coach Yaklich takes this opportunity to jump over to work with Shaka Smart at Texas.  “Associate Head Coach” is the official title…

How quickly things change…

Anyway, it’s pretty plain to see the incredible job he did – in just two short years – running the defense for Michigan.

In his own words…

“I think that’s where it starts with me,” Yaklich said this week. “I love defense and I let that show. I’m able to be myself and so that passion I have for defense, I’m able to exhibit that and be myself every day.”

Opportunity seized. 

Clearly, he’s one of the rising stars of collegiate coaching. 

So, I thought it would make sense to document the rise…

So here it is.

The complete Michigan Defensive Playbook – Luke Yaklich-style!

Make no mistake, there’s a lesson to be learned here…

Coach Yaklich rode a single focused passion to the top of the game.  

And we’ve put together 80+ pages of his finest work (yes, we scouted both Michigan seasons) into one playbook for you.

This is something you’re going to want to study front to back, trust me on this.

Today, you have a chance to learn the Corner Offense. The corner’s greatest hits have resided in NBA playbooks for years. Rick Adelman has run a read-and-react corner offense successfully for years in Sacramento and Houston, and many of its basic tenets can be found in the Triangle. Corner sets feature a three-man formation on one side of the floor with two players positioned on the weak side. As much as anything else, good corner systems rely on big men with multiple skills who can facilitate the offense at the elbow. Think Vlade Divac, Chris Webber, Pau Gasol, Luis Scola and Brad Miller.

Tom Izzo, head basketball coach at Michigan State and football fanatic, has always stressed the importance of being detailed in every facet of the game.  You will see it all in this special teams playbook.

Drawing wisdom from Hall of Fame coaches, from Vince Lombardi to Mike Ditka, who have all stressed the importance and impact that “Special Teams” have on the outcome of games, Izzo firmly believes that “Special Teams” have been a key ingredient in the program’s success for decades.

Knowing that so many games are decided by one to two possessions or less and that the majority of NCAA Tournament games are decided by even less, there is increased focus on five areas that make up “Special Teams.”
1. Jump ball situations
2. Baseline out-of-bounds
3. Sideline out-of-bounds
4. Free throw situations
5. After time-out plays

In this Special Teams playbook, we examine three of these areas and what some of the most efficient teams of the past several years are running in these situations.

The special teams playbook contains 210 basketball plays from 40 different NCAA teams:
•  After timeout (ATO) half court man offense
•  After timeout (ATO) half court zone offense
•  Baseline out of bounds (BLOBs) vs. man
•  Baseline out of bounds (BLOBs) vs. zone
•  Sideline out of bounds (SLOB)

Can the Barnes-Vols approach work for you?

We all saw what Head Coach Rick Barnes did at Tennessee in 2019 after just 4 seasons.

Crazy good numbers.

At one point this past season they sat at No. 1 in the rankings for the first time in over a decade.

Check out these stats also from this year:

The Volunteers had the nation’s second most efficient offense! 
They averaged 1.168 points EVERY time they were on offense (ranked 4th)
They averaged 20.1 assists per game (ranked 2nd)
But, there’s a part of this story many coaches overlook…

When a coach is as far along in his D1 career as Rick Barnes, you don’t often see noticeable changes in how they do things.

By this point, most coaches are VERY set in their ways, have defined systems.  Something pretty radical would have to happen in order for them to toss out their tried-and-true philosophies.

Right?

Well, that’s what Coach Barnes did.  (Okay, so it may not have been a complete overhaul, but it was clearly powerful enough for opposing teams to sit up and take notice.)

Anyway…

What was his trigger?

Maybe being shown the door after 17 years at Texas?

(It’s hard to think of Rick Barnes and NOT think of the Texas Longhorns and his 14 consecutive trips to the NCAA tournament.)

Maybe that was it...it’s hard to say for sure.

All I know is that Davidson-inspired, Barnes-refined offense kicked butt this year!

And it’s something you need to take a loooooong look at.

So…

Guess what I have for you today?

100 pages of solid gold.

77 different looks as part of the brand new Tennessee Vols Playbook!

Keep in mind, most coaches will dig in their heels and refuse to adapt like Barnes did…that doesn’t mean you have to.

He turned things around in just 4 years, against the toughest competition in the country.

Imagine what you can do!

If you’re looking for that “turnaround plan”, would it not make sense to take a page from the guy who did exactly that at the highest level?

Probably.

I guarantee you’re going to love this one.

I am excited to announce the release of my newest ebook: “International Offensive Basketball Strategies: “Learn from the best coaches in the Euroleague, Eurocup, and Beyond”. I have spent a lot of time and energy breaking down set plays, transition sets, sideline out of bounds plays, and baseline out of bounds plays. I have really been interested in Ettore Messina (Formerly – C.S.K.A. Moscow, now with AX Armani Exvhange Milan). I have found out that there are some tremendous basketball coaches in the United States as well as abroad. I became extremely interested in their teachings once I started to view their games. I hope that you enjoy this ebook.

What is Euroleague? Here is the definition from Wikipedia:
“The Euroleague (EL) is the highest level and most important professional basketball competition in Europe, with teams from up to 18 different European countries. The competition is operated by ULEB, a Europe-wide consortium of leading professional basketball leagues. Clubs from Turkey, mostly located in Asia, and Israel, entirely within Asia, are also part of the system.
The league usually, but not always, includes domestic champions from the leading countries. Depending on the country, places in the Euroleague may be awarded on the basis of:

• Performance in the previous season's domestic league.
• Performance over the previous two or three domestic seasons.
• Contracts with ULEB.
• In addition, the winner of the previous season's Eurocup receives a place.

For example, two 2007-08 domestic champions from ULEB member countries did not compete in the 2008-09 Euroleague—Zadar (Croatia) and Hapoel Holon (Israel). Zadar played in the second-level Eurocup in 2008-09. Hapoel Holon, however, did not compete in any of the three European continental club competitions—not even the third-tier EuroChallenge (which is run by FIBA Europe instead of ULEB).
Starting with the 2009–10 season, the entrance criteria have been dramatically changed:

Thirteen clubs, chosen via a formula based on competitive performance, television revenues, and home attendance, receive "A Licences", giving them automatic entry into the Euroleague Regular Season phase. A Licences are awarded for three years, meaning that the next adjustment of A Licences will not take place until 2012–13.

• Eight clubs receive one-year "B Licences" into the Euroleague Regular Season. Seven of them are directly based on the ranking of the domestic league in which the club competes. The eighth is a three-year "wildcard" licence based on similar factors to the A Licences; the first such licence was awarded to ASVEL Basket of France.

• The winner of the previous year's Eurocup receives a one-year "C Licence" into the Euroleague Regular Season. If the club qualifies for a direct B Licence into the Regular Season via its domestic league, the C Licence will be awarded to the club not already qualified for the Regular Season that is highest on the Euroleague entry list.

• Eight other clubs receive one-year "B Licences" into the Euroleague qualifying rounds, with two advancing into the Regular Season. "

So what you will be viewing:

69 Set Plays
7 Transition Sets
2 Sideline out of bounds plays
2 Baseline out of bounds plays

If you love to pick and roll basketball then this ebook will be great for you. It made me start thinking about different ways to attack basketball teams and expand my offensive views. You will be viewing some of the best set plays that Europe has to offer.

Who is Bobby Hurley?
Bobby Hurley is the NCAA’s all-time assist leader and former point guard for Duke that won a national championship in 1991 and 1992. He played for Coach Mike Krzyzewski at Duke University.

It looks like Coach Hurley is once again running one of the best shows in college basketball. Arizona State University is ranked fourth in the Associated Press Top 25. They didn’t get one vote in the preseason ranking which is understandable after the Sun Devils have been 30-35 in the last two years.

This season the Sun Devils are 12-1, and their only loss was to Arizona which is a conference rival and callous game. The Arizona State University Sun Devils beat Kansas at Allen Fieldhouse which never happens.

About the Arizona State University Sun Devils Offense?
Coach Hurley has his players playing fast, shooting a lot of threes and averaging 91.8 points per game. They have four wins over teams ranked in the top 50 (Kansas, St. John’s, Xavier, and Kansas State).

The Sun Devils are playing a new freewheeling style, turning around their program, and leaning on their coaching influences. They have a new trademark: Guard U.

The Arizona State University Sun Devils are spreading out the floor so their guards can drive or shoot it. The offense is making it a tough match-up with traditional teams with bigs. They are playing guys that would be a 3 or 4 anywhere else in the post slot.

The Sun Devils are spacing teams out in a unique way where they can get to the rim, make plays or shoot open three’s.

What is in the Arizona State University Sun Devils Playbook?
This playbook includes over 55 sets that Coach Hurley ran the last three years at Arizona State University.

It includes their:
* Ballscreen Offense series
* Horns series
* Backdoor series
* Zipper series
* Zone Offense
* And a creative set of 13 baseline out of bounds series
* Numerous other assorted man plays, press breakers and EOG plays.

These set plays will allow your team the ability to spread out your opponent and score in a variety of options for your best players.

Hey Coach!

Does it ever feel like some guys know something about an offense that you don’t...

Like when YOU see a not-so-bright, not so athletically gifted, average coach... winning games with an average team...?

Like he was in class that day and he learned the right buttons to push to his team to a win...

...and you were just absent that day?

We have a NEW PLAYBOOK!

I just got my hands on the complete Creighton Bluejays Basketball Playbook!

“Hot off the presses!”

(OK, it’s digital, but some expressions just work)

And I’m super excited to have this done and available for you!!

Over 150 pages are broken out into 93 different half-court offense plays.

This playbook dives deep into one of the most efficient offenses in the country (3rd best actually).

Coach McDermott is known for his “green light” attitude when it comes to his players putting up 3’s.

But this isn’t done without MASSIVE preparation.

There is nothing random about it.

No way.

Greg McDermott maximizes his players with player movement and ball movement….

The Bluejays execute their halfcourt sets with great timing and pace. 

The sets also include purposeful misdirection to move and distract the defense for the eventual main event.

This year, it didn’t matter what defensive powerhouses they faced (think Texas Tech and Seton Hall), these guys were dialed in…

After studying this playbook, you’ll see why.

I know I go on and on like this every time a new playbook comes out, but that’s just me…

And if you’re anything like me, I’m guessing you’ve heard enough.

No more convincing required.

Hi Coach!

What exactly is a “Frankenstein” playbook?

Let me explain…

I was sitting around last weekend watching some of the HUGE college upsets, and the commentator made some offbeat comment about this guy’s field goal shooting and the defense he was up against…

Nothing very profound, but it got me wondering about FG% and defensive pairings...

(Don’t judge me.  That’s just how my mind works.)

The more I mulled over the various combinations in my head, the more I forgot about the game and started jotting down some notes.

Kinda like a “what would happen if…” scenario…

Next thing you know, the “evil scientist” in me starts going to work…

<>

Suddenly I’m onto something…

Here’s my premise:

“What if you took the absolute best field goal % teams in the NCAA today (D1 only) and put this up against the zone…and then put everything into one playbook?”

I think I actually said it out loud (as any true evil scientist would).

Step 1:  Go to the leaderboard for the 2019-2020 season.

Step 2:  Sort the list by order of the top 20 FG% made.

Step 3: **Add 20 minutes worth of video clips that correspond with everything!** 😊 

Step 4:  Produce 104 pages of the best shooting teams vs the zone defense in the country, as of this writing!

This thing is sweeeeet!

<>

Got some good shooters on your team?  

Playing against  a zone defense a lot?

You can have some serious fun with this book…and most likely win a few more games along the way!

I intentionally created this so you can plug these into your scheme at your very next practice. 

NOTE:  Don’t miss the video…it really ties everything together!

Texas Tech:  Downtrodden to Defensive Dominance

Hey Coach,

He runs a defense that has been called both “highly aggressive” and “baffling”…

Texas Tech Head Coach Chris Beard took a team that had been labeled as “irrelevant”-- posting losing records in five of the previous six seasons before his arrival -- and teleported them to their first trip to the final four…accomplishing all this in just two years.

And he did it riding on the back of an overwhelming defense…

Along the way, crushing the no. 2 defense and then defeating the no. 1 offense.

Statement made.

I have to say, I LOVED watching these guys play this past season…and I’m looking forward to seeing them again next season.

But, let me clarify, I would NOT want to be playing against them!

Here’s what Gonzaga Head Coach Mark Few had to say about the Tech defense, ““We talked about it quite a lot in meetings and showed it on film, but it’s something you have to experience.”

So, just in time for the NBA finals to wrap up, I’ve got a special surprise for you…

The entire Texas Tech Offensive AND Defensive Playbook just hit my desk!

All 7 sections and 107 pages of it!

And now you can study the magic behind this impressive turn around for yourself.

Got a program that needs some defensive work?

Here’s your game plan.

The Texas Tech Playbook!

It breaks down like this…

Half Court Motion Offense
Half Court Man Offense-Sets
Half Court Zone Offense
BLOB’s
Half Court Man Defense
Offensive Drills
Defensive Drills
(I can tell you that the 5 pages of Defensive Drills at the end of this playbook are worth the price of admission!)

Listen, let’s be brutally honest here…I’ve never met a team who COULDN’T use some help of defense.

So, doesn’t it make sense to go directly to the top of the heap?

I does to me.

Here is our newest playbook that you should put in your coaching library: New San Antonio Spurs Mid-Range Offense Playbook

The NBA San Antonio Spurs are one of the best teams to watch for a high school coach. They focus on the mid-range game, and that is something that most high school teams can do. They have played power basketball with Tim Duncan. Tony Parker used a motion offense when he was their top scorer. They are now using this mid-range offense with Lamar Aldridge. Coach Popovich is leading down the right path with this offense.

In the last 24 games, The Spurs have been within five points of those game. They are 13-3 in those games. The Mid-Range Offense has them running different options, and their defense isn’t as good, but they are winning.

The Spurs have the most shots from the mid-range in the league. LaMarcus Aldridge leads them in those shots. The Spurs have adapted to him instead of the other way around. Most high school teams don’t have great outside shooters. It’s the perfect high school offense.

Teams should look at this shot because they have the personnel for it. We all don’t have a Kevin Durant that can hit the NBA three-point shot. You have to adapt to your personnel.

This offense will allow your catch and shoot kids to get their shots off. You can make your team into an excellent pick & roll team with this offense.

You have an opportunity to see 152 pages of NBA X’s and O’s for $15! One of the best opportunities to see what Coach Gregg Popovich is doing with the San Antonio Spurs this season. Grab this Spurs Mid-Range Offense Playbook Today! Great X’s and O’s.
