The NBA is back! I am so excited to dive into all of the film and work on more deep dives and X’s & O’s. Each Saturday we will focus on different aspects of NBA offense and continue the breakdowns of different types of ways NBA teams score with this week looking at actions out of the post (Warriors!).
For the first week of the season I am offering a 50% off sale of a yearly subscription to get access to all of these breakdowns as well as 150+ previous breakdowns on all things X’s & O’s.
All of the film and editing was done through Synergy - the best app for watching film for anyone trying to learn more about basketball and perfect for any coaches looking for advanced stats and film for their own team. Check out more information on Synergy here.

NBA Sets For Shooters
Over the next few weeks, we will start looking at how NBA teams create scoring opportunities from their set plays, starting with plays for shooters. Some of the plays will be from post-ups, SOB/BOB, and special situations to help us better understand how NBA playbooks are designed, as well as lead into the X’s & O’s previews before next season starts.
