• Set up players: 
  • 1 with ball on the head (pos 1/white), 
  • 1 in position 2 or 3 (blue), 
  • The rest on 4 or 5 (same side as the forward, red).

• Make sure you are ready to score as a shooter. 
• Use only 1 ball per basket

Requirements:

Players must be able to perform a layout from a bounce pass

Aim:

Learn how to create forward scoring opportunities for yourself

Organization:

4 players / quarter field, other players wait in center circle. Move over: offence becomes defence, defence goes out + new offence

The helpline is out: you can play with two groups of four on a basket and force the players not to use the space where the help is in the game.

(first perform the exercise several times without defense)

• guard dribbles up from the center circle
• at the same time, 2 makes a V-cut
• if 2 gets free, pass and 1 v 1
• if defender overshoots 4, then continue the V-cut to at least a meter
• above the three-point line and sprint backwards for the backdoor pass 
• and play 1 v 1
• All score out of:
  • backdoor
  • 1 v 1 from the wing

Mtm offense

• If you don't manage to pass to 2, 2 will sprint to the centre circle and get the pass of 1. 
• The cycle then starts again from the front, but now with 1 at the forward position.

Teaching Points:

• if you can see your defender's shoulder in the pass line at the V-cut, then there is overplay.
• and you have to take the defender up to at least a metre above the three-point line towards the sideline
• sprint at full speed as you go backdoor
• the backdoor pass is mostly one-handed, from the dribble with a flat bounce
