Legendary coach Tom Izzo provides a detailed look into the high-powered Michigan State Offense! This offense provides the spacing you need to effectively use quick hitters to take advantage of defensive mismatches.

In a clinic setting, Coach Izzo uses a 5-on-0 and 5-on-5 demonstrations to teach the Spartan's Horns, Chest and Elbow Series. Each series is presented in great detail and offers a collection of counters that take advantage of defensive adjustments and gets the ball to your most talented offensive players.

Horns Series:
"Horns" is a 1-4 high set with four counters to confound any defense. Coach Izzo introduces post entries into the offense to counter defensive pressure on the wings.

Chest Series:
"Chest" is a two guard front with five counters. This offense uses four players capable of playing on the perimeter and will get the ball to your best athlete and your best shooter.

Elbow Series:
This unorthodox set with the posts at the "elbows" is an Izzo favorite. Four counters accompany the initial pattern.

Izzo emphasizes the simplicity of adding counters to what you already run. When adopting an offense, he asks, "How would the defense take it away?" Then, he develops counters that appear to be different plays. Counters allow your team to become more "player coached" and capable of making the adjustments that dumbfound defenses.

No one in the game teaches the motion offense better than coaching legend Bob Knight. Discover how his screening and cutting motions can benefit your offense.

Coach Knight teaches every element of his man-to-man offense with on-court demonstrations including screens, cutter options, post screens, screening angle, balance and spacing. This 2-DVD set includes never before seen footage of practices at Indiana University!

In each of these areas, Coach Knight shares his coaching philosophy, teaching methods, and crucial teaching points as he builds his man-to-man offense.

Philosophy
Bob Knight's emphasizes that cutting and screening gives you the best opportunity to shoot good shots every time down the court. Forcing all five defenders to guard at all times with no specific offensive pattern will allow for uncontested shots time after time.

With Knight's spacing principles, you have the opportunity to set screens and cut to the basket while keeping the floor properly balanced at all times.

Cutting & Screening
No matter what man-to-man offense you run, Knight demonstrates how you can use proper screening techniques, well-balanced spacing, and set up screens to make your offense highly efficient. Knight teaches the effective use of the down screen, the back screen, the cross screen, the flare screen, the slip screen, the double screen, and the T screen in a number of on-court demonstrations. Included in the bonus game films, you will discover hundreds of clips showing the screens in action.

Offensive Drills
All of Knight's drills begin with a 2-on-2 set-up and expand to 5-on-5. The drills utilitze all of the screening and cutting actions covered in the screening segment. As the drills progress, constant motion with proper spacing is emphasized. To improve the flow of the offense, Knight implements limitations on the drills requiring players to "see and observe" the defense.

Motion Entries
In the bonus footage you will discover six motion entries Knight has used to initiate his passing, cutting, and screening offense. Included are "Baseline Reverse" and "Triangle" which he has been using since his time at Indiana University in the early 1970s!

In addition, you will also receive Coach Knight's Clinic V (retail value $60), which was filmed in 1997 and features more instruction on the offense.

Regardless of which system you run, the concepts and techniques in this DVD pack will take your offense to the next level!

It doesn't matter what offensive system you run whether it be motion, set plays, or ball screen action the keys are the same -- your spacing, your pace of play, and your teams ability to screen.

In this on court clinic demonstration, Ben Jacobson takes you through two drills he uses to emphasize the main aspects of spacing, pace and screening. The goal of these drills is to force help - get the second defender to come out of position, which frees up a teammate for a shot. The sooner you can get the floor spaced, the sooner you force the defense to help - and they have farther to go, which creates spacing you need for a good look at the basket.

These drills start 3-on-3 half court where the players are working on execution in these areas by performing down screens, UCLA screens and the back screens on one side of the floor. Keeping the players in a confined space promotes communication by your players and forces them to wait for their screen. You then add the ability to score while keeping score. Coach Jacobson then progresses into 4-on-4 half court where players are paired on each side of the floor and must work together.

Jacobson then moves into some of his team's transition offense quick hitters. He demonstrates four quick hitters and then has the players demonstrate the plays 5-on-0 and then 5-on-5. Proper spacing opens up a low post shot, a quick two-man game and other actions off your set plays. Each time he builds on the plays by having the players transition up and down the floor; coaching them through the action while stressing spacing, pace and screening action. He also shares two quick hitters he uses out of a box set.

He finishes by answering questions on screening, handling switching defenses, play calling, getting the ball inside and offensive philosophy.

This DVD will give you insight and ideas that can be used in any offensive system to open up the floor to give your players some freedom to play.

On-ball screening is the hottest trend in basketball around the globe. A battery of set plays for each player, playing a fast paced game and shooting threes are all major parts of the Green Bay offensive attack. As Coach Kowalczyk begins to teach this offense, he demonstrates the initial spacing needed. All players space out beyond the 3-point line, with all three perimeter players being interchangeable. The focus for the dribbler is looking to score first and pass second. As the ball is reversed, the options are an open shot, high low pass, back door cut and ball reversal. Used as a secondary offense, at times it is much more effective than set plays. A small change is to pin down screen instead of back door cutting. Essential keys are ball movement, allow your guys to play, take what the defense gives you, timing and good cuts and screens. When played 5-on-5, many of the benefits of this offense are exposed. Several counters are incorporated into the attack and include; top flare, reverse flare, misdirection, re-screen and hook pass. To put this offense all together, breakdown drills are demonstrated to illustrate the most important pieces of the offense.
