Players work on the jump stop, pivots, getting open with a V-cut, a pullup jumper, securing the ball on a rebound, and tipping the ball with both hands. To maximize reps, Coach Showalter developed a series of 15 Line Drills that work on improving in different areas of the game. Players learn to make strong passes with their weak hand, for example. Three of the drills work on teaching players to set and use on-ball and off-ball screens. Shooting Drills Shooting technique is the focus of Oiler Shooting Series, Box Drills, and the 30-Second Drills. Players work on shooting from distance as well as finishing at the rim. The Oiler Drill teaches players to pull up and shoot under control from different spots on the floor. Players can also incorporate pivots, fakes, and more to vary the shots taken. The Box Drills teach players to use seven different yet effective scoring moves from the high post. The 30-Second Drills – there are six total – get players to compete and improve to new levels. The Superman Drill is one that trains players to aggressively chase rebounds and then be explosive at the rim. All of Coach Showalter’s concepts can be incorporated with the Cut Throat Drill from former NBA coach Dick Motta.

Two concepts – Lock and Squeeze – are taught as methods of getting the ball into the hands of a post player to bring the ball up the floor in transition. The segment finishes with the Greyhound Drill, a full-court drill that emphasizes transition offense and getting immediately into full-court pressure on a made basket. Zone Basketball Defenses Continuing in his presentation, Coach Herrion explains two zone defenses that keep opponents off balance. Both defenses for opponents into trapping areas at half court. Herrion goes into further detail on the 1-2-2 containing press showing you how to get two different traps. He also explains how to use the 2-1-2 press. Coach Herrion shows you how most teams try to beat the 2-1-2 press and then explains how to shut opponents down with the 2-1-2 by putting heavy pressure on the ball.

You also get an in-depth look at downing or icing a screen, which effectively forces opponents away from the basket. This is great presentation on how to use defense to control games.

These offenses can be demonstrated on the court using whiteboard diagrams, game clips and demonstrations. Dean Smith reveals two powerful offenses that he used in leading his teams to more than 800 wins and two NCAA Championships: the Four Corners Delay Game and the T-Game Zone Offense.

The perimeter is manned by three guards, who work together with the posts to create a team. The zone is defended by ball and player movement, skip passes and posts dives. Coach Smith helps to dissect the T-game's details with game clips, whiteboard diagrams and a demonstration on the floor. Smith created the Four Corners delay game to preserve leads in the final stages of the game. It was used 107 times by Smith during his career.
