We are going to take one moment now and show you the split and this is for a team that is really pressuring. Now, they are not going to give help side on the low the side. They are really pressured. The key is when the movement comes from the wing we have to have movement from the side. Everyone has to move together. Obviously, you would not have been moving, he would have. I had you on the wrong side. They both have to move the same. As he comes you fill, okay.
Let us go ahead full speed now. I think we got our feet ready. Here we go, we are going to start it on this side right here. Hold it a minute please, he was not quite ready. Let him get down there before you go. Alright, this is our situation. Play. Got away with it, did not look real pretty but it still was effective. Let us start it again, remember come straight up the lane as you make the cut all the way to the foul line. Here we go.
Could have hit him. Stop! Now, we have a young man here that loves to jump to the ball. If I am this young man and I read that and I make my pass because he is pressuring and he jumps to the ball hard, all I have to do is fly to the basket and I have to over emphasize the angle to this side rather than to the block because in listening to coach and coach saying, “Go diagonally through to the block” you actually fed into his hands. So, what we have to do is read the defense. When we get a man that is jumping hard to the ball and they make pass then widen from him and make him come to you. He will not be able to do it. That is a little coaching point we call Read the Defense, Read Your Defensive Man. Do it again David. Here we go.
Jump David, jump, go, there he was, hold it. Now, we set that option for a specific purpose did we not coaches? We set it so you could give him a lay in, not so you could watch him. Now, had you pivoted square up instead of too far back, you probably would have been able to throw the pass easily. Let us try it one more time. Let us read the defense and score when we can. Play. Thank you, that is good. That is how it works. That is the split and when they are pressuring out, the split is sometimes better than the stack. You have to read it as a coach. There is really no difference. There is only one movement instead of stacking as he comes, he fills up the floor.

Good. Now I want to make another coaching point before I set in my final play. We happen to have- we do not but we are going to say we do – two individuals that do not move very well right here and they are terrible free throw shooters, okay? If I am the blue team, either “Man, he has a hard time with this.” I am going to stick a littler guy in because we have no post here and rebounding is not the factor and in reality quick to see us. And we may be playing a different kind of defense to where we can get by with a little smaller person in it. And these are my best free throw shooters and they are my quickest people. Because we have no post, we have no screening and it is all cutting, we can go with a smaller team.

You can flip this in. In a little time you run it everyday and the thing it does do is you can tell “It conditions you”. It is very easy to run the offensive part but the defense, well, it will really condition your team. It can be used as a delay. It can be used to set up a special shot at the end. It can be used as a primary offense depending on whether you are playing a league or in a division that has a shot clock or not.
