Taking Care of the Ball, Half-Court Offense & Transition
Coach Painter begins his Open Practice presentation with a skills breakdown that focuses on taking care of the basketball and emphasizes the lost art of pivoting and improving how players can quickly kick the ball out to a teammate for an open perimeter shot.
This coaching point-of-emphasis continues, as Painter breaks down elements of his offense by showcasing half-court breakdown drills with a focus on ball screens, slipping screens and by highlighting his penetration rules – all of which build confidence, improve the team’s ability to penetrate from a variety of attacking angles and teach them to make the proper decisions in half-court offense.
Coach Painter then moves into multiple segments of 5-on-0 work which focuses on transitioning into half-court offensive sets. Moving on to a detailed segment on his press offense, Painter provides a solid breakdown and understanding of his press offense.
Skill Building, Situational Segments, Shooting Drills & Defensive Rotations
Coach Painter continues with a valuable skill breakdown throughout practice, focusing on post entries and working cuts off the post by using speed-curl actions. In this skills breakdown, Painter shows how guards can continue to utilize the same penetration rules covered previously when the guard receives the ball back.
Coach Painter continues to provide great situational advice throughout the practice and his team works through a variety of shooting drills that you can implement in your own practices.
Breaking through a progressive fast-break drill that helps players work on both transition offense and defense simultaneously, Painter also unveils some excellent half-court defensive drills to work defenders to improve on help-and-recover situations.
Coach Painter ends his Open Practice by showcasing 5-on-5 situations that demonstrate a variety of defensive rotations versus an array of different ball screens. This segment is an especially strong segment that is jam-packed with great coaching tips throughout and offers a high level of detail.
