Basketball in the Fast Lane
with Bo Kimble,
Shoreline Community College Volunteer Assistant coach;
All-American player at Loyola Marymount University, led the nation in scoring at 35.3 ppg in 1989-1990 at LMU; 1990 West Coast Conference player of the year; 8th overall draft pick in the 1990 NBA Draft

and Greg Turcott, Shoreline Community College Head Coach

Add an alternative offensive approach to your game plan that applies constant pressure on your opponent's defense.

Legendary Loyola Marymount star Bo Kimble made a name for himself as the centerpiece of the fastest-paced, highest scoring juggernaut in the NCAA while attending Loyola Marymount University. Now, Kimble, along with Shoreline Community College Head Coach Greg Turcott, carry on the Paul Westhead tradition with a high-flying fast break game that leaves opponents gasping for air and creates wide-open layup and three-point opportunities for your offense. Witness for yourself the nuances of this "organized chaos" and discover why it can be so successful--even more so in today's era.

Kimble and Turcott, install the offense for you in an easy to learn, step-by-step fashion, beginning with the alignment of the player positioning on the court, followed by explanations of the various options within the system as they pertain to each of the five players. You'll also get a series of break down drills that illustrate the options previously drawn in a whiteboard session. Drills progress from 3 v 0 to 5 v 2 action where the specific axioms required by the offense are discussed, demonstrated, and reinforced. With Coach Kimble on the whiteboard and Coach Turcott giving coaching points on the court, they combine to give a complete explanation of the system in an easily understood fashion.

This scheme is designed to wear down the opponent over time and to force them to play an uncommon style of basketball. Kimble diagrams each of the individual offensive options sequentially on a white board. Each player on the court is assigned a number and that number corresponds to a responsibility for the fast break. The numbering system helps players get to areas on the court, which helps create space for the fast break offense to be most effective. Players and numbers can be interchangeable; your personnel will determine where you feel certain players would best fit.

Following the whiteboard introduction, each option is shown live on court first using 5 v 0 cycle drills. These drills teach your team how to play fast by reinforcing the responsibilities and options of each player.

The coaches then put their team through breakdown, continuity and sequence drills.

  • The breakdown drills allow two to four players to focus on their options while quickly moving down court. This allows for more repetitions in their roles on the court.
  • The continuity drill runs the team through the cycle of plays with active defense to "train the eyes" for teammate recognition and open passing lanes up ahead.
  • The sequence breakdowns are optional passing sequences to beat adjusting defenses to the basic main plays. The drills covered are adaptable to individual workouts or full team situations.
Once believed to be a system for only elite level talent, Bo Kimble explains and breaks down each segment of the scheme and preaches that it can be even more successful for teams with a talent disadvantage. Kimble provides his expert knowledge on the commitment level and passion required to select such a fast-paced, up-tempo, fast break offense.

Sales of this video benefit Kimble's "Forty-Four for Life" foundation, dedicated to reducing cardiac arrest fatalities by placing defibrillators in public gathering places.

Wisconsin-Green Bay Offense 3-Pack
BD-04063A: with Matt Bollant,
University of Illinois Head Women's Basketball Coach;
former University of Wisconsin-Green Bay Head Women's Basketball Coach;
4x Horizon League Coach of the Year (2012, 2011, 2009, 2008);
back-to-back 30+ win seasons (2010-12); Kay Yow National Coach of the Year 2011

Get the tools you need to implement the same offense that led Matt Bollant to back-to-back 30 win seasons.

Join Coach Bollant and his players as they breakdown the components to this highly effective motion offense. This is not your traditional X's and O's clinic! Coach Bollant stresses execution, timing, and intensity above running from Point A to Point B. He provides you with high-intensity, fundamental passing and cutting drills will make your team better, one player at a time. These essential concepts, drills and actions will give every coach insight into what makes the Wisconsin Green Bay program so successful.

Coach Bollant runs his players through their mini-clinic workout drills to start this DVD. His focus on developing the player first is clearly seen and the precise execution of the drills demonstrate his attention to detail. Drills such as Start, Stop and Turn and his Four Line Drill will develop the fundamentals necessary to have success in any offense--but, especially in the motion offense. Drills such as the V-Cut and L-Cut drill will help your team learn to initiate this offense through varying speeds and timing.

Bollant doesn't limit his instruction to just the court though. He discusses many aspects that are necessary to developing a solid team. His four ways to communicate a screen are just as important as his on-court lessons on how to set the screen.

Bollant also runs his team through a series of post drills where the focus is on the work the players do before they catch the ball. This emphasis on footwork and body control will assist your players in creating easy shots for themselves once the ball arrives.

After coach Bollant covers the proper footwork and post up angles, he introduces you to his 4-out-1-in motion principles necessary to put the offense in place. Understanding the timing within a fast-flowing offense will make this motion tough to guard physically and mentally.

Lastly, you'll see five highly effective sets that either lead into the motion or can be implemented as quick-hitters to exploit a defense's weakness. With a backdoor play, a 1-4-high set, 3-point plays and a secondary break, your team will be virtually unstoppable.Matt Bollant's motion fundamentals will allow you to run a quick, fast-flowing motion offense with such speed and precision your opponents will be left in the dust.

BD-04063C: with Matt Bollant,
University of Illinois Head Women's Basketball Coach;
former University of Wisconsin-Green Bay Head Women's Basketball Coach;
4x Horizon League Coach of the Year (2012, 2011, 2009, 2008);
back-to-back 30+ win seasons (2010-12); Kay Yow National Coach of the Year 2011

Learn proven techniques and drills to improve your team's focus, effort and competitiveness. Green Bay Head Coach Matt Bollant shows you how he builds the Phoenix offensive and defensive systems in a live practice setting.

Bollant's practice starts with a 5-0 offensive shell drill and several drills to teach players to cut, communicate, and play with poise on the offensive end and in their primary and secondary breaks.

He uses a rapid fire drill for practicing high percentage game shots out of the Phoenix offense. This is followed by full court 2-on-2, 3-on-3, and block-hold-release drills which emphasize offensive fundamentals in the half-court game and the primary and secondary break. These drills are a great way to help your players make mental transitions during games and to get your players' "brains flowing."

Teach your players how to be aggressive using full court "blood drills" to build an attack mentality in the open court. Pick up defensive fundamentals with a 3-on-3 Cut Throat Drill that emphasizes closing out low, communicating with teammates (offensively and defensively), being in a triple threat position, utilizing the jump stop, and making sure his players do not use a "butt ball" action.

The defensive emphasis continues as Bollant teaches "closeouts inside the V." He uses a 1-on-1 drill to demonstrate how to square up to a defender off the closeout. He puts an emphasis on teaching high hands, long and low first step, and making sure you don't open the gate. You'll also see a 4-on-3 passing drill to teach defenders how to communicate and pressure the ball while making your opponent think about their next pass.

The practice session ends with variations of 4-on-4 shell drill. Bollant takes you through his layers of shell to teach his players the cutting and screening action of their motion offense. He uses 4-on-4 and 5-on-5 shell to create a tough practice mentality and for game preparation on both the offensive and defensive end of the court. You will learn how to build solid defensive principles and pressure, how to create good help side defense and help the helper action, and how to move and think without the ball. Coach finishes up his practice with "3 Ways" Drill to put it all together.

Get practice ideas to get your players to think quicker and play faster.

How to Run a Simplified Set Play Offense
with Steve Pikiell, Stony Brook Head Coach

Steve Pikiell shares a unique coaching strategy built around the use of consistent "core" concepts.

He begins with an on-court, step-by-step demonstration of his 2-2-1 defense, which features three simple components-no middle, no lay-ups, good defense. Teaching and practicing these key concepts eliminates game-day guesswork and over-thinking.

Coach Pikiell moves quickly to his out-of-bounds series with simple rules like getting the ball in safely and scoring a pre-determined number of points. By implementing these limited, easy-to-follow strategies, his teams have dramatically reduced the number of points given away on turnovers. He also demonstrates several out-of-bounds plays from his "winner's series."

Switching his attention to the secondary offense, Pikiell emphasizes the importance of key ideas like spacing, ball reversal, post touches and shot selection. He also gives a specialty zone offense that puts players in constant motion and keeps the knockout player just one pass from the ball.

This high-energy, fast-paced DVD is a must-have for any coach who wants to augment his favorite plays with easy, yet proven strategies.
