Message: [QUOTE="nelsonmuntz, post: 4410838, member: 833"] Did I say they should stand next to each other posting up? It is not surprising that you only think of offense as a bunch of 1-on-1 action rather than team basketball. High post is a zone killer, and a lot of teams play zones to stop 3 pointers. Stretch 2-3 zones line up very well against the 5-out offenses you like so much, but those same stretch 2-3's have a huge hole at the high post. Get the ball to Sanogo a few times, have him school the center a couple of times, and the top of the zone will have to drop down or they will go man. Even in Man, they will have to help against Sanogo on the high post. Someone should be flashing weakside when Sanogo gets doubled, and it is easier for Sanogo to find a 7 footer rather than a swingman. Everyone on defense starts cheating in, and they have to close hard because they are covering a lot of ground on the kick out, Which means that when the 4 pops out to the corner or at the top of the arc, he will be WIDE OPEN. Or we can play navery-offense and have them keep swinging the ball around the perimeter until the clock winds down and someone has to jack a prayer. Let's see where that gets us. [/QUOTE]
