The System Beating the EuroLeague (⛹🏽TSF: 128)
|
What’s up, internet basketball junkie? Valencia finished 2nd in the EuroLeague regular season after being projected to finish 16th… and they did it without a superstar. They did it through their SYSTEM OF PLAY. Their offense led the league in scoring, built on pace, ball screens, and a design where everything connects - spacing, decisions, and relentless pressure. It’s one of the most complete team-driven systems in basketball right now. I just added a full Valencia film study (including a film breakdown + 1-hour commentary video) to the EuroLeague Tactics Lifetime Subscription. With this new feature, the price goes up Thursday - so now’s the best time to lock it in before the increase.
THE STARTING FIVE🥇 Best of the Week A look at Bob McKillop's system at Davidson from the inside - Coach Pat Casey played in the system and now coaches it, breaks it all down: PG - 🏀 I've been experimenting with expanded short form breakdowns like this one on "Bucky Ball" Defense... like em when you see em and I'll keep making them:
SG - 🏀 Morphing 1-3-1's are more common than you think... Coach Hoiberg's change of pace was the perfect addition to the 1-3-1 Multiple Defense System: The Ultimate Rhythm Breaker:

What’s up, internet basketball junkie? At least a dozen coaches have asked me for the document from this YouTube video on the Flexible 1-2-2 Defense: If you want it too, you can access it here for free: The_Red_Defense_Playbook.pdf The above video is an excerpt from the full stream with Coach Marty Dello (90+ minutes in length that includes game film) And for the an even deeper dive into the 1-2-2 3/4 court press and learning all the details of running it, check out the guide to the Jay...
What’s up, internet basketball junkie? I just added something new to the 1-3-1 Multiple Defense System - and it fits the identity of the product perfectly. The 1-3-1 system is built around one idea: breaking offensive rhythm with multiple looks out of the same structure. This new addition is exactly that. In a 22+ minute video, I broke down the Morphing “Lanes” 1-3-1 Zone Defense used by Fred Hoiberg at Nebraska - a change-of-pace defense that doesn’t pressure the ball… it takes away the next...
What’s up, internet basketball junkie? Just like I said from the very beginning of the tournament… Michigan is your national champion! Now, I know what you’re thinking. “Didn’t you pick Houston?” Fake news. AI deepfake. Never happened. “Wasn’t it Purdue?” No, that was 2023 when they lost to a 16-seed in the first round. “Arizona?” That must have been a dream (why are you dreaming about my picks, weirdo?). All jokes aside - congrats to Michigan and Dusty May. What. A. Tournament. No more...
