1 week ago everyone was ready to go all in on no screen conceptual offense —— Balance and Perspective people!!
Illinois set 7 ball screens in the 1st half at Texas Tech. They set 23 in the 2nd half.
Illinois scored 1.25 pts per poss on plays where they set a ball screen. They scored 0.86 on plays without a ball screen.View quoted post on X
The last thing a player needs is mixed messages. 🎯
Coaches don’t want outside voices telling their players something different than what they’re being asked to do within their team. And we don’t blame them.
As development coaches, our job isn’t to create confusion. It’s to understand what a player is being asked to do, what their coach values, and how we can help them become more effective in that role.
That doesn’t mean we stop developing their overall game. It means understanding the difference between what a player needs right now and what they’re working toward long term.
The best development happens when coaches, trainers, players, and parents are aligned.
Different voices. Same message. One goal. 🤝🏀

What's not talked about enough as everyone loves the idea of conceptual offense, is that most teams do not have 5 players on the floor that they want making reads/decisions, etc.
Every team needs to have a blend of Sets, Triggers/Actions, Conceptual Flow and depending on overall team IQ and skill level that blend looks different

Steph Curry wants less random basketball
On what Steve Kerr is installing:
“Less random basketball and offense. Trying to get more organized and more pattern-based.”
Chaos can create a shot
Structure makes EVERYBODY better
Have we been celebrating too much freestyle offense and not enough organization?

The thing that is really bothering me with NBA Officials. The NBA has the best players in the world. The Officials should take pride in being the best in the world. The amount of easy, basic calls they miss so that the 'entertainment' is better reflects poorly on them (from actual basketball fans)
