Blitz Secondary Break Breakdown Drills
Teams that make more uncontested layups than their opponents usually win basketball games. California women’s head basketball Lindsay Gottlieb has turned the Golden Bears program around by embracing up-tempo thinking. She preaches the fast break as well as the secondary break that follows. In this video, Coach Gottlieb shares with you how she builds the Blitz offense and how she teaches it.
With an emphasis on playing fast, Coach Gottlieb’s California teams have gone to six NCAA tournaments in seven seasons and earned a trip to the 2013 Final Four. Coach Gottlieb uses her unique whole-part-whole teaching method to show you how to build a transition offense and the breakdown drills needed to teach the skills necessary to be successful.
Blitz Secondary Break Overview
Coach Gottlieb starts with introducing the Blitz fast break and all options. The concept of having the point guard “dribble until they stop you” is presented and is easy to understand. The same goes for the first post “running down main street” which helps provide the proper flow into her motion offense. You will see multiple options including those for the post, wing, as well as swing options.
Breakdown Drills for the Secondary Break
After introducing the secondary break in its entirety, Coach Gottlieb then presents you with the breakdown drills using on-court demonstrations. These drills are normally done without a defense. The 3-on-0 Transition Drill teaches guards and one post player to run and develop the strong side of the break. The 4-on-0 Blitz adds a trailer and the 5-on-0 adds an opposite side wing which presents a number of new options for the secondary break. These drills are also great conditioners.
Skill Development for the Blitz Secondary Break
In order to effectively run the Blitz offense, players must work on their individual skills. In this segment, Coach Gottlieb presents 20 different drills for wing and post players. Each drill is related to playing transition offense and helps players become more comfortable in reading defenses and attacking them. Wings work on layups, pullup jumpers, catch and shoot opportunities, and more.
Post players go through a separate shooting series. They will work in tandem at times and work on screens, catch and shoot moves, and more. There are also combination drills using a wing and post player where they can work on things like dribble hand-offs and pin downs.
Coach Gottlieb gives you everything you need to run the transition offense in this 61-minute video. Full of drills to work on individual skills, this video is a must for teams looking to boost their offensive tempo.Rent the Breakdown Drills for the Blitz Secondary Break DVD today
