Steve Fisher 2013 Early Offense Notes

Written by Coach Peterman

I have coached at the NCAA Division 2 (Southwestern Oklahoma State University), NAIA (USAO), and JUCO Levels (Blinn College and Carl Albert State College) as well as high school. I just felt that fellow coaches especially young coaches need to constantly work on their “game”. Just like the basketball players that we coach. We as coaches need to improve ourselves. That is my story and why I do this blog.

Players must buy into running for others in transition

Spacing is absolutely paramount if you want to be successful at running the ball

There are only 7 spots you can be at or move to

You want to get 50%+ of your field goal attempts in early offense

Early offense is both hard to guard and hard to scout

Player roles
You need to convince players that even though their mom wants them to shoot. They are more valuable to the team in other aspects of the game.

Ball screens
The Angle of the screen (screeners back) dictates where the ball will go
-Flat ball screens go to the hoop
