New wrinkles for man offense

Nothing fancy, just some new stuff we'll be adding this week for Kapolei's man-to-man defense. I believe that anything we run against them should work as long as we execute properly.

This play is simple and requires only a back screen on the weak side. We'll call this one "Box."



This is a good complement to the "Rack" play we put in recently, which involves a cross screen under the basket, an ensuing curl around a low-post double screen by the original screener, and a pick-and-roll on the wide-open top side. Different options for the point guard, who will have complete freedom to drive or dish to his high screener or the curler under the basket.

Another aspect we'll work on is drive-and-kick against zones. We showed a tendency to force drives against the Rebelz' zone on Sunday even when they had two defenders simply standing there, even as they just stayed back and applied no pressure. We'll go back and work on some drive-and-kick basics, which we haven't done in weeks.
