Message: [QUOTE="packwrap, post: 5117024, member: 13341"] Of course you are right. The 3 guards are basically interchangable and the 2 posts as well... ...but for discussion purposes, you can still identify a 1-5. 1 - point - brings ball up, initiates offense, regroups late in shot clock. 2 - shooting guard - hunts their shot working thru screens 3 - wing - like 2, but more hanging out on perimeter, or backdoor cuts. 4 - forward - works a zone from low post to corner 3. 5 - center - works a zone from low post to high post. If the 4 and 5 can shoot the 3, their area can extend even beyond the arc, setting screens for the guards. You can usually figure out, at least on a possession by possession basis, who is in what role. [/QUOTE]
