When converting to offense, I think the

What I want out of an offensive transition is to put as much pressure on the defense as early as I can. What's the hardest to defend? I say ball screens, back screens, and ball reversals. So, lets put as much pressure as you can as early as possible. Give your point an immediate ball screen, once the fast break has been stalled. Put the pressure on the defense to do something with it. Put a back screen in. There must be some communication on all back screens or a layup is going to be given up. Ball reversals make the defense shift and can put the defense at a disadvantage. Move the ball quickly. How about a combination of all 3? Whatever you do, you're going to be putting pressure on the defense. When you put pressure on the defense is when good things happen offensively.
I talked about secondary breaks earlier. You don't necessarily have to have a secondary break, but just look at how soon you can begin your offense. The quicker you put pressure on the defense, the quicker they will break down, leading to scoring opportunities. Everyone can play defense for 10 seconds, playing defense for a minute is pretty tough, especially if the offense is always putting pressure on the defense and forcing them to communicate, shift, and make decisions.
What are your thoughts on this? I love comments!
