Fred Hoiberg ran this a lot with the Bulls & Jimmy Butler. Called “L.” Shooter can use the screen to the corner or the other to the top.

Must Add Action

Saint Louis:

- Rifle Action
- Cutting
- Dominos

[Josh Chambers @JoshChambers]

Loved this answer from Iowa Coach Ben McCollum:

👨‍🍳 Preparation is an Identity, Not an Event
😳 The Moment Exposes, It Doesn’t Create
📈Consistency Compounds Into Confidence

If your team only locks in when it “matters,” you’ve already lost.

The standard HAS to exist before the spotlight!

Saint Louis - Off Ball Cutting

[Anthony Pugh @Anthony_Pugh2]

If you want to score in the NCAA tournament …

• Catch & shoot 3s
• 2 foot finishes
• Transition
• Ball screens, DHOs, pin downs

[Hoop Herald @TheHoopHerald]

The single most important thing for young Hoopers to learn

Playing off two feet

Give yourself options at the end of your drive and play under control - watch the best guards in the world, they all play off two

‼️March Madness TERMINOLOGY‼️

- Ball Screen Coverages -

SHOW - screeners man shows big at the POA and recovers.

HEDGE - screens man shows big at the level and forces a change of direction/pace.

BLITZ - putting 2 on the ball handler on the screen to force the ball out.

DROP- screeners man plays the tag spot allowing a 2 on 2 to occur to defend the BS.

DEEP DROP - ball screeners man takes on big step to POA and holds space.

ICE - ball handlers man has butt to the weakside sideline and big is in drop to keep the ball on that side.

NEXT - the gap defender attacks the ball handler and the ball handlers man peels to the gap player.

SWITCH - switching checks at POA.

WHIP - sharp angled under and recover.

LOCK LEFT - icing ball screens on the left side, switch/hedge/drop on the right side. Goal is keep the ball on the left side.

SQUEEZE - pinning the screener in place to eliminate a hard roll and allow for an easy under/over.

TRIPLE SWITCH - tagger takes the roller, ball screens man peels to the taggers man.

PRE SWITCH - as the screen goes to set the screen, you switch to create a favorable matchup defensively.

ZONE UP- the defense guards the spot there at when the screen occurs and switches the POA.

ROUND 1: HANDLED 🐻🔥

Bastrop High School Boys Varsity Soccer takes down Pflugerville Connally and punches their ticket to the 2nd Round.

The journey continues.

Did a quick rewatch of the 2026 #UILState games and put this together… 5+ minutes of some sets/quick hitters from the Alamodome ⬇️

[Coach Tony Miller @tonywmiller]

Got this from @Coach_DeMarco. I call it 1v1 Whirlwind because it just keeps going 1v1 around and around, but O/D switch to the other half of the floor after each rep. It ends in your typical 1v1 advantage situation, just in transition.

🔥3-2 Match Up Zone Drill: Defending the DHO and Protecting the Middle
In this clip, Denton HS (TX) head coach Michael Thomas @Coachmdthomas demonstrates a 4 on 4 drill used to train key principles of the 3-2 Match Up Zone. Players work on midline positioning, denying the middle, communicating on dribble handoff actions, and making two-foot defensive rotations before the drill eventually builds into 5 on 5. This great drill comes from the new instructional video "Building a Disruptive & Dominating 3-2 Match Up Zone Defense"! 🏀
