Coach Gottlieb covers individual skill building from the inside out, transition and her flow offense in this excellent video shot within a live USC practice! Playing ‘free, fast and positionless’ has been the direction of basketball offense and Coach Gottlieb breaks it down in this video; you’ll see the individual work done to get players comfortable within the offense, but you will also see how the benefit of building them up - to benefit the team - is the plus.
Inside-Out Skill Building
Coach Gottlieb-coached teams get a lot of shots up in a short amount of time in her skill building drills. All drills begin with players making a pass, getting open and finishing with layups, jumpers, and all the way out to three-point shots. The amount of repetitions Gottlieb was able to get up in a short amount of time, using two baskets with a full team was impressive. Finishes come from the baseline, key, and elbow.
Advance the Ball
Playing ‘fast and free’ means you need to get the ball up the floor. Speed passing is a great conditioning drill along with hitting your outlet and using two passes to cover the full court with a finish. The drill continues and creates a competitive atmosphere with everything timed and score kept. Progressions include transition into the flow offense providing different looks with options. Do you want to score in the first 5 seconds, or utilize the shot clock? Coaches have options to work with and you will see exactly how Coach Gottlieb practices it!
Team Competitiveness
Coach Gottlieb gets the team competing by using a time clock and keeping score. Players are getting after it in transition, running the floor, and making the extra pass to get good looks within a short amount of time.
Coach Gottlieb does a lot within her practices and this video shares her breakdown drills for a High Tempo Offense, her efficient and effective Inside-Out skill building drills & ways to make a focus on ‘Advancing the Ball' a skill-building, decision-making and competition-inducing portion of your practice!
