South GA BBall Ref: unfortunately, the video is not helpful at all there. All I see in that part is a coach kneeling down and telling the player what to do. They don´t show the actual play or illustrate the tactic he mentions in any way.

bob jenkins: thanks a lot, I think with what you tell me I can now manage to find a translation.

I have a new one for you: "random", in this context:

"If the previous play was not successful, they´ll call “random.”

And this guy will come down
and you have to set a pick for him. It´s called random."

What does random mean there? I don´t get it.
Thanks!

Sounds like that team's name for a certain play. I'm guessing that any word you can't find a meaning for will be the name of a play. Around here, we get some weird play-names. Especially at the junior high level. One year I had a team that named all their plays after cartoon characters, "Snoopy", "Smurfs", "Pikachu" and so forth. Makes for some interesting conversations!
Juulie - you forgot the infamous "BANANAS, BANANAS, BANANAS" made famous by the now-retired Coach Lavender.
