Keep opposing defenses scrambling with constant motion throughout your offensive possessions!
Hall of Fame Coach Jim Calhoun gives you an inside look into the offensive system that formed the basis of three NCAA Championships. This offense is based on a philosophy of pushing tempo and preventing the defense from ever setting up by keeping your players in constant motion.
Starting from transition offense, you will learn options for attacking the defense at different points in your possession. Coach Calhoun also shows you seven "need" plays for scoring in special situations. If you have a team that looks to play with a traditional lineup of three perimeter players and two post players then this offensive system is perfect for you.
Transition Offense
See how you can "Push & Look" to find early scoring opportunities in your transition offense. Coach Calhoun will show you how to flow into a secondary offense that led to UConn scoring 63% of the time. Vary your attack with the "single" and "double" plays in your early offense. Coach Calhoun will explain how to space your perimeter players and score through your posts in transition by securing great position in the paint.
Half Court Offense
The next layer to Coach Calhoun's offense is after the secondary break fails to create a scoring option. He demonstrates four set plays he uses to structure player movement with various cutting and screening actions. These include stagger screens in Corner to simultaneous pin and flare screens in Chase.
Swing will incorporate the popular floppy action and Shuffle uses a flex screen to create a great high/low opportunity for your players. These actions can be run continuously or flow into ball screening action late in a possession.
Need Plays
Coach Calhoun is also a big believer in having a collection of set plays for when you need them in critical situations. You will get a chance to see an assortment of these "need" plays for various moments in the game. You will learn the Power and Circle plays for half court situations where you have to score. Coach Calhoun demonstrates three baseline inbound plays from his Jazz series to free up players off back screens or double screens. You will also learn two ways to score on sideline inbound situations.
Coach Calhoun shows you brilliant strategies for scoring on regular possessions and at critical moments when the stakes are high!
