Favorite Send to FastDrawWith the Australian Boomers win over the French national team I thought I would put up my favorite play from the French U17 mens team. We played the French team in pre world competition losing to them by 1 point on a shot at the buzzer. This action which we called "cirlce motion" was very effective at allowing them to have multiple scoring options while being hard for us to negate defencively. I like the action to create uncontested threes and/or in situations you want some time off the clock before on ball play. See More

Favorite Send to FastDrawHere are some more basic drills we have found extremely valuable during the "implementing Dribble Drive" phase, which we still use on a daily/weekly basis (they are a modified version of the traditional DDM Blood Drills). The importance of being able to create a "split" (where two defenders commit to the ball carrier) is pararmount within our DDM system, but the ability to be able to make an appropriate read/decision is just as important. There is no point getting in to the paint if you are just going to throw the ball away. What we are doing in this series is creating gamelike situations for our players, then letting them play it out and build on their decision making ability. You can move the initial setup to suit your teams needs, and all players are encouraged to play all positions/roles as part of their basketball IQ development. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawHere are some basic drills we have found extremely valuable during the "implementing Dribble Drive" phase, which we also use on a daily/weekly basis. The importance of being able to create a "split" (where two defenders commit to the ball carrier) is pararmount within our DDM system, and just as important is the ability to find the open player (from where the 2nd defender came from) for a high percentage & open scoring option. Our "Decision Making" breakdown work is by far the most important part of our practice plan when it comes to our offensive system, very rarely will we conduct 5on5 for great periods of time (no more than 20mins per practice), rather we choose to place as much time in to 2on1, 2on2, 3on2, & 3on3 situational decision making as possible within our practice plan. We have found this approach to be very successful, creating an enviroment where players are making high percentage decisions/reads on a regular basis. There is a reasonable amount of "ugly basketball" when we first implement the DDM system, and we encourage our coaches to try and let the players "organically grow" within the system and make their own decisions/reads, though this is often easier said than done, try and "guide" the players decision making rather than making the decision for them. We encourage questions like "what was your thought process on that decision" & "what did you see that triggered that decision" See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawHere are our Dribble Drive Motion "Initial Movement & Receiver Spots" that we use at Southern Peninsula, which is all based on Vance Walberg's AASAA or DDM. We use a few different tweaks in our DDM, as we like to have two (2) weak-side shooters as often as possible, and our post movement is also slightly different to that of the original DDM. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThis set uses false motion to get to a horns set with 3 at the top of the key and 1/2 in the corners. The play is best run to the side of your best shooter and should result in a post up for 3. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawNotre Dame used this play in the second half against UNC. They run their down screen motion to a two man game on the left side. On the pick and roll, the point guard throws it up for a lob. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawNotre Dame ran this play in the first half against North Carolina. They run a quick slot ball screen straight into a handoff/ball screen combo. They roll the post to the block and the guards look to penetrate and kick. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThis offense gets both big men into ball screens and the ball moving from side to side. The first ball screen is set from top to bottom and the second is set from bottom to top (inside out). See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawHere is a set play used late in the first half against VCU. The Sooners get to a ball-screen by first setting a screen on the big who runs out to set the ball-screen. If nothing is there on the ball-screen, the Sooners ran run a handoff to the wing. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawOff of the ballscreen motion, after the initial ball reversal the guard who receives a dribble hand off has an option to score backdoor. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThis is what Middle Tennessee runs behind what they run. Any set that is run, or does not create a scoring chance typically flows right into this or they can get into this quickly with multiple scoring options off of it. When run all the way through you can have an option for a backdoor, dribble hand off, duck in off ball reversal, and then the triangle corner pick and roll action. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThis is a nice rip/shuffle set getting the long guards for Oregon into the post. See More
