STRATEGY AND COACHING TIPS

"Most coaches feel that it is vital for a team to control the tempo….the team that controls the tempo usually wins the game"…..Al McGuire

If you are bigger and quicker than your opponent, look to play an uptempo game. Since your opponent will proably prefer a slower tempo game, you would play right into their hands if you plan a slow tempo game.

If you are smaller and slower than your opponent, look to play a slow tempo game , which in effect "shortens the game" since you have fewer changes of ball possession.

When playing against a team that has excellent guards, but mediocre front line players, consider playing the guards man for man, then play a 3-man triangle zone with your frontline players. This will enable your front liners to give more help defensively on any guard defensive breakdown, yet be able to defend their zone.

MAGIC .6 SECOND PLAY VS. THE LAKERS

#3 sets rear screen for #2 cutting to the basket
