The Blocker Mover Offense product is FINALLY ready

For a 3 day launch (starting today), you can also get the brand new "Your Best Shell Drill Ever: 25 Tips To Master Teaching the Shell Defense Drill" with it for FREE!

I'd call it a "twofer" but I just did that last month...

The Blocker Mover guide is 50 pages of detailed writing and a 38 minute film breakdown of the offense.

"Your Best Shell Drill Ever" is 38 pages of writing to master teaching the 5v5 Shell Progression I teach.

THE STARTING FIVE

🥇 Best of the Week Ummm... it's gotta be the Team USA comeback against Serbia. Wow. I loved seeing those guys playing so hard representing their country. Vintage Steph Curry. Durant seals it. How is LeBron older than me and still this good at basketball? I'm concerned about the home court advantage, but I think Team USA rolls to Gold over France today!

PG - ❓ Have you seen a zone shift to m2m mid possession before? How about twice in the same possession?

SG - 📺 If you've been following me for a while, you'll know I'm big on the 1-3-1 half court trap as a change of pace defense

An interesting thing about it is... you can morph it right into a 2-3 zone. This adds a layer of confusion to the offense if they get comfortable attacking it

SF - 🐥 I published a SIMPLE series of 4 BLOB plays out of the flat alignment... all actions that I've used together

I've always loved the 4-flat alignment on BLOBs... I feel like I can get any action I want quickly with it as a starting point


PF - ⛹🏽 Transition defense can be tough to teach... I've traditionally used a drill I call "Louisville" as my primary teaching tool to isolate transition defense, but I saw this one, and I think I like it better (?)


C - 📝 High school basketball scout TJ Peatross ran an interesting poll on X... How would the Boston Celtics fare in this Olympics?

Don't forget to check out the most recent releases on the store - Diamond Press Breaker UNLOCKED and the Tandem 2-3 Zone.

The Merrimack Tandem Zone has sold well over 100 copies so far since launching last month. Coaches loving it because it's different, unique, covers a lot of the soft spots of a traditional 2-3 zone, and can be rolled up the court as a press.

The Diamond Press Breakers UNLOCKED product is different coaches demonstrating their press breakers and PDF guide to all the X&Os that go along with it. It's a great education in press breakers.

Have a great week!
