flexing with a zone
I'm just looking for thoughts today. Last night we had opening night of boy's basketball around here. One of the teams played a zone defense, and the other team ran a play often where they set a double screen on one side and sent a cutter to the opposite for a shot from the wing. My question is on how you all flex with that. Personally I stay with the screeners as that is where the most rebounding action will happen, but I can also see making a case for flexing and helping with the possible drive on the 1 on 1 isolation. Just curious. Let me know if my description isn't complete enough. I'm pretty sure most of you see the play I'm trying to describe.

must have been a duplicate of game I had. Same offense. I tried flexing but felt there was too much going on in the area of the screeners on double screen. In addition - when player cut opposite to corner or short corner - he was usually in a situation where only one defender was in a postion to guard him.
Partners having same opinion when they were in lead. During a TO partners and I decided that L would stay with screeners, C would move down from top of key to FT line area and cover shooter. There was not much else going on over there anyway. T would then take normal primary. This worked much better we thought. I don't think it would be wrong if someone wanted to flex - but this seemed to work best for our crew and kept the game clean.

In the "normal" front court situation, C should be at the FT line extended, and adjust 1 or 2 steps to either side as needed for angles. The "top of the key" is as high as C should ever be (in the "normal" situation). |

I agree. In high school and college women's I work from the FT line down. When I work the very few college men's games on my schedule, I work a little higher C as the bigger players change the angles slightly. Thanks for the flexing thoughts as well. I like staying with the screener, but I thought the question might get some good conversation going. |
