Coach Moncho Fernández has built one of our favorite answers to ICE: use the wide reject to hold the coverage, then trigger screening actions away from the ball.
This week’s newsletter revisits that solution—and a simpler rim-sprint counter that puts the coverage big in a bind.

Your offense is defined by your TRANSITION philosophy, not by your HALF COURT strategy.
When mapping your offensive structure for your team, break it down into this FLOW:
Primary > Secondary> Half Court > EOC
Most coaches spend the majority of their tactical work on half court offense. 🛑
Your primary and secondary transition systems create the best shot quality AND equate to the highest offensive ceiling (for most teams). Once your transitional flow is established, and your PPP is in the 1.00 range, then teach TRIGGERS into your Euro BS/ Princeton/5 out/DDM.
Finish the clock, ideally, with the ball in your best players hands hunting the BEST AVAILABLE SHOT.
“First 8 seconds is for you, next 8 seconds is for me, and the last 8 seconds is for our best shot maker.”

JJ Redick said, "The star players and their energy have an exponential effect on the group."
Your body language is contagious. It sets the tone.
It impacts you. It impacts your time.
That's why leaders lead with action - not words.
