IntroductionIntroduction Basketball NSWBasketball NSW adopts the Motion Offence as its

base team offensive teaching tool within the suite of development programs.

The concepts of purposeful player movement (cutting), ball movement, spacing and penetration of the ball into the key are important aspects of the offence.

We feel this is the best system to achieve our goals of multi-skilling young players and providing development opportunities.

The WholeThe Whole4 out, 1 in, “high and wide” spacing

2 guard front

Post positioned at mid-post

3-4 metre spacing between players

“1st side” – all about cutting at pace

Key TermsKey Terms“Speed” cut – cut executed without an influence set up“Exit” cut – basket cut that turns out to the ball-side“Through” – basket cut that turns out away from the ball“Lift” – cut (or dribble) that fills space behind initial cutter or penetrator“Fill behind” – cut that replaces penetrator on the drive to the basket

“Middle flow” penetration – dribble penetration through the foul-line or over the “high shoulder”“Straight line drive” – the importance of penetrating in direct lines, not on curves“Chest over knee” – the stance required on cuts or dribble penetration“Dead corner” – position in the corner opposite the ball

Use of the “flare screen”

Reading the defence/cutting with purposes

““Floor spots”Floor spots”

On penetration of the ball into the key, we want 4 players moving to open areasOur receiver principles are a combination of traditional receivers’ rules and filling “floor spots”Penetrating player must “drive to score”Ability to pass on the move keyMovement to floor spots is a cut and must be done at speed and with intent
