2-3 High Offensive Set

For all you coaches out there we have another Basketball animation for you today.

This one is a simple 2-3 High Offensive set play out of the old Shuffle Offense set up.

Please enjoy. I love the 2-3 high set depending on what players I have to work with.



Have a great day!

Full Court Secondary Offense

Today we are using a free screen capture technology from TechSmith called The Jing Project. What a great service. Jing is so easy to use and you can host up to 2 GB on their servers for free. The only downside is that it is not as flexible as using Camtasia (also a TechSmith company).

Another option is to use CamStudio which is Open Source freeware. So, for Coaches who want to branch out and use this technology of screen captures to share their knowledge, I think this will really change the way we share information as coaches.

Please enjoy today's Full Court Secondary offense animation and tell your friends about our blog and our website, Planet Hoops.

Diamond Zone Offense

Please enjoy a little basketball animation we put together today on a Diamond Zone Offense I used and experimented with in Australia.



The animation goes for about 17 minutes as we walk you through the basics of the offense. I think this offense gives the typical 2-3 zone a look that it might not be used to. Also, I like the attacking angles we get with the diamond shape and the overload choices.

Please let us know your comments.
