These notes are from Dave Odom when he was coaching at the University of South Carolina from the Double Pump clinic in Universal City, CA
- Championships are won in the last 5-7 minutes of the game.
- Must be able to play vs. set defenses in closing minutes vs. 1-3-1, 1-2-2
- Must have set plays vs. zones
- Talk about zone principles, not zone offense patterns
Zone Offensive Principles
1. Even-Odd Principle- attack with opposite # of men as top man of zone
2. Outside Inside Outside Principle
- go out when defense comes in, make defense like an accordion
- make defense spread out as far as possible, and then pass inside.
3. Does zone hang out/relax or does it attack?
- Is it aggressive with ball pressure or do they just cover their zone.
A hang out zone is not chasing you, must move it with dribble, not pass
Vs. an attack zone, must move it with pass- quicker, covers more ground.
Dribble Freeze vs. 1-3-1 zone- dribble at man’s chest and make a play.
Dribble Throwback- Dribble influence defense out of position until they stop. Use dribble to your advantage.
High Low passing- No bounce passes from low to high, air passes only to posts diving down the middle of the lane.
- Likes 4 guys who can pass and shoot on the perimeter vs. zone.
- Screen vs. zones, just like vs. man to man
4. Inside X Principle
- Man at high post, 4/5 interchange block to block, shooters in corners. 4/5 must get inside position, if defense goes over the top, screen down for shooters.
