Once the pass is inbound, the options are down, back, middle and throw over. A feature of this set is the over the top play against full front defense. To break a 2-2-1 zone press, Vetter demonstrates the 2-1-2 "Walk Up" or the 1-3-1 "Walk Up" plays. The "Up" play is good at the end of the clock. This play is loaded with scoring options for several different players. A good play for a hot scorer is "Loop," which includes three screens for an open shot. "Line 24" involves screening and down screening for a jump shot. "Blitz" is a predetermined play that can yield a basket on only 3 seconds. "Blitz 50" is the same play but creates a shot at half court in only 2 seconds. With less than 2 seconds, an out-of-bounds play, "Horse", can lead to a lob or a direct pass from the corner. When in need of a 3-pointer, "Laker" can set up your best shooter at the end of the game. These time-tested plays will give you more options when you need them most!

Hubie Brown is respected at the elite levels of the game of basketball. His wisdom, experience and love for the game has always been part of his gift to coaches. In this DVD, he shares time-tested advice to coaches and demonstrates his philosophies on special situations. Coach Brown does not believe in wasting time and wants his shooting drills to fit into his offensive pattern. Shooting drills are done "on the catch" to turn non-shooters into shooting threats. Good chest passes are keys to proper shooting drills. The 30-second shooting drill is an excellent drill for footwork and proper shooting technique. Specific teaching is presented for teaching the jump hook. Brown teaches players to point their shoulder into the number of the opponent when shooting the jump hook. The "Sikma" move revolutionized post play and can be used by all high school coaches. Good post players "feel" the defender first then move accordingly. The jump hook, up & under and step through are all move that Brown teaches. Screening is an important concept and is done either by headhunting or by screening an area. Good players can "separate" themselves from the defender. Pinpoint teaching Brown show you how to screen read the defense and get open for shots. Other teaching points include the bump, shoot the gap, fade and curl. Brown strongly believes that drills should come directly out of your offense. Adding shots by all players in the drill maximizes practice time. Intensity comes from running 2, 3 and 4 minute drills with a focused outcome. Brown asks questions that challenge coaches to think about late game situations and how to use staff meetings. To be prepared for big games, Brown challenges coaches to have strategies against Box &1 and Triangle & 2.
