1 on 1 Isley halfcourt
| 1 Nelson Isley NCCP Super Clinic 2018
With a 14-second re-set on an offensive rebound, there is not enough time to run a play, need 1 on 1 skills. Don't see 1 on 1 anymore, need it in practice. Drills are good (skill repetition), but need learning activities.
1)
Attacker 1 will
- make two pivots (e.g. space and reverse pivots, sweep the floor) - jab step, shot fake, jab step - when coach calls "go", make dribble moves on the spot (e.g. between the legs) - on a second "go", attack off the dribble against 2, limit of 2-3 dribbles.
3-4 go next, then 5-6.
(Option - use dribble triple-threat moves, e.g., side jab, inside-foot jab-at, dribble-foot front jab, hip swivel)
Progressions
a) Defenders call "go", three pairs can go at the same time. |
| 2 b)
1 pivots and fakes (no dribbling), coach calls "change" and gets a pass, 1 and 2 exchange, coach passes to 2, who pivots and fakes then passes to coach, it's live when 1 gets the next pass.
(Option - add dribbling before passing) |
| 3 2)
2 allows 1 to drive by him, 1 jump stops, pivots, passes to 2 (outside the 3-point line), closes out, 2 attacks live.
See 1 on 1 - Drive and kick. |
| 4 3)
2 is behind 1 with a ball, both are facing away from the basket, 2 hands the ball to 1's right or left hand, 1 has to front pivot on the foot on that side, ten toes to the rim, do his fakes, then attack on go.
1-3-5 can all go at the same time.
(Variation - reverse pivot to create space)
Progression - 1 passes to coach on "change", coach passes to 2.
See Attack/defend - Pasquali advantage, Shooting - Mike Procopio wing. |
| 5 4) Two-touch passing
Sometimes it's hard to get something positive on a first catch.
2 denies a pass from the top to 1 in the low post, 1 breaks to the wing for a pass, makes his fakes. |
| 6 1 passes back to coach, cuts to the no-charge semi-circle, then tries to get open anywhere for a pass (outside, or post up), it's live.
Progression
- score without a dribble - 3 points - score with one dribble - 2 points - score with 2-3 dribbles - 1 point. |
