Principles In deciding on a fullcourt press offence, here are some questions and things to keep in mind. - The easiest press breaks flow from the primary fast break, as players are already in position. You can also inbound the ball quickly before the press gets organized. See Press breaks - 1-Up, Hoop Tactics, Fast breaks - North Carolina, Larry Brown, also Press break - 2-1-2 (against a soft press).
- Another option is to get organized against the press (e.g., 4 across), don't be in a hurry to pick up the ball when the other team scores. For examples of press-break "sets", see 1-4 set, Old Dominion regular.
- Can you use the same press break against multiple presses? A 2-up set is flexible, see Canada Basketball, Double Middle, Hackenberg 2-up.
- How many players do you want to use in breaking the press? Bringing more players into the backcourt can provide passing options and pull defenders away from protecting their basket, but crowd the backcourt.
- What are your player strengths, especially your big? If he
- can handle pressure and pass well, put him in the middle of the press break (see Middle, 2-1-2)
- can't handle the ball under pressure, put him upcourt, out of the press-break rotation (see Duke vs 1-2-1-1, Shaka Smart, 1-Up, also Bill Self 1-3-1)
- is on a par with your other players, use a full five-man rotation (see Ashbury, LSU Set).
- A conventional press break has 3 short pass options and a long pass against fullcourt zone pressure. Good teams may want to stretch the defence using a progression of options after an inbounds pass:
- the sideline player stretches vertically, opening up a pass over the top or a dribble attack up the sideline (see Middle - Don Kelbick).
- the inbounder spaces away weakside, allowing ball reversal with one pass (see Shaka Smart, 2-1-2)
- instead of a short, diagonal pass to the middle, have a longer diagonal pass to the weakside, leaving open the middle of the floor (2-2-1 set)
