Zone offence - Blue Devils
 
  
  | 1 Keys to zone attack 
  - line up in the gaps  - drive the gaps  - freeze dribble  - reverse the ball  - skip pass  - pass fake  - attack from behind  - inside-out  - attack the short corner, high post  - overload  - screen the zone.
  a) 1-3-1 
  Against a 2-3 zone.
  5 goes short corner to short corner, 1 and 4 are not in a tandem. On a pass to the wing,  - if a bottom defender comes out on the ball, look to pass to 5 (if he is ballside) or drive baseline (if 5 is weakside)  - make a return pass to 1 if a top defender plays the ball, but also look into the high post.
  Variation - 1-2-3-4 hot-potato passing, 5 moves block-to-block.
  4 and 5 are partners (buddies), when one gets the ball the other goes to the basket.    |  
 
  
  | 2 b) Duke runner
  Also against a 2-3.
  A shooter runs the baseline.
  Pass fake to the corner, pass inside to 5.
  4 can ballscreen to help reverse the ball.

  | 3 c) Two-guard runner 
  Against a 1-2-2 (or 2-3).
  High post and low post (see 1-3-1), two guards, a shooter runs from wing to wing.
  5 will cross the lane if 3 passes to 2.
  If 1 passes to 4, 5 crosses the lane, 2 goes to the block, 1 and 3 slide down in vision.
