Hi Coach,
I want you to join me in calling B.S. during your next game. You can even do it in your next practice. In fact, I want you to master the art of calling B.S. Do it all the time!
I'm talking about Ball Screens of course
I want to introduce you to Better Basketball's newest course:
Ball screens are the most common 2-player action in the game and yet it's one of the least covered topics in the game.
I've seen so many coaches tell a player to run a screen (which is easy), but very few coaches know what to tell their team aside from "Get your body in front of the defender."
So what happens?
Your screener makes the screen and then becomes frozen because they don't know what to do next.
Your ball handler doesn't know their 2-4 options depending on what happens with the screen. Your team doesn't know how to read the defense. Etc.
And then disaster strikes!
...a turnover!
Hey, let's call B.S. on turnovers! From now on it's time to call great Ball Screens instead of turnovers. Let's eliminate 40% of them.
This course, from Coach Rick Torbett, analyzes ball screen actions using 120 game clips for the purpose of building 3 decision grids for the ballhandler.
These grids simplify the options for the coach who is teaching and the player who is learning how to master the ball screen.
In the second section of the course, the screener develops a learning grid as well – made up of 4 basic reactions that expand to 7 for higher levels.
In the final section of the course, you will examine coaching solutions to the 3 non-ball-screen defenders; systems for all 5 offensive players that will make sure the defense is wrong regardless of how they defend the ball screen.
Regardless of your offensive system, if you run a ball screen from any location; from any formation; against any type of defense, I will guarantee that your players will make better decisions and score more points with fewer turnovers using the decision grids in this course.
You will learn:
- THE BLUEPRINT PLANS FOR APPROACHING ALL BALL SCREENS
- THE 3 MAIN DECISION GRIDS OF THE BALLHANDLER
- THE 7 READS AND THE APPROPRIATE REACTIONS FOR ANYONE WHO SETS A BALL SCREEN
- THE OFFENSIVE AND DEFENSIVE FORMATIONS OF THE 6 PLAYERS OUTSIDE OF THE BALL SCREEN.
- THE COUNTERMOVES FOR DEFENSIVE SWITCHING, TRAPPING, HELP AND ROTATIONS
