In this course, part 1 of a 5-part series, Coach Torbett uses three demonstration teams from different Read and React clinics to simulate a practice with content from the first two to three weeks of the season. The course covers drills for teaching Pass & Cut, Feed the Post & Cut, and Dribble East-West. In addition, it covers Out of Bounds Plays, Attacking Zones, Breaking Presses and Transition. Breakdown drills: from 2 players to 5 players to 5 on 5. At the end of this course, the team should have a working offense and be able to play and compete.
What I attempted to do here is combine different layers of the offense to create actions that are hard to defend. With these quick hitters, you can put your players in a position where they are most effective while staying within the concepts of the R&R. I would love to have your feedback on these plays!

This offense will allow you to teach players how to play basketball and not just how to run set plays. There are so many different options and phases that you can pick and choose what you need to exploit your team's strengths and hide your team's weaknesses.
In this DVD, Coach Grantz introduces 16 different phases of the offense, starting with the most basic, and shows how you how you can successfully use as many or as few as you need. Using whiteboard diagrams and on-the-court demonstrations, each phase is broken down into a specific reaction that builds on another phase.
Stressing the importance of spacing the floor, Grantz utilizes six perimeter spots and a post player to lay the foundation for the offense. The three initial phases include: Phase 1: The Dribble Drive Phase - This phase starts with the very basics of the offense and attacking the basket, as well as how the rest of the players react to the ball movements. Grantz explains the action above and below the drive line, the importance of NBA 3-point line spacing, the pitchout, the lift and other actions.
Phase 2: The Pass and Cut Offense - This motion is dominated by the give-and-go principle and the ability to cut to score. This action provides for double gaps which can lead into the flow of the dribble drive.
Phase 3: Post Entry - This is final piece of the basic set up of the offense. This includes not only the post-up but the inclusion of the high and low "Laker" cuts and the appropriate spot-filling for passes out of double teams in the post.
The rest of the phases consists of the add-ons to the offense. This includes the rules for baseline driving, the dribble-through, ball screens, various screening actions, and various counters and options off of other plays.
This is a complete offensive system. Whatever your preferred method of offense - screening for shooters, back cuts and back screens, no screens, ball screens, etc. - this offense is adaptable to your style and to your team's strengths. You can put this offense in at the junior high, high school, or college level. Use this offense with a group of developing players over the course of several years or with a group of advanced players to create a fun, unstoppable offense!
A great offense for any level! My players can learn how to play the game. You have done something special for basketball. So simple & so sweet!- Coach Robert Alfeld, 8th Grade Boys Coach, New Haven (IN)
Great video quality. Coach Grantz outlines the concepts on a whiteboard before demonstrating them on the floor. All very well explained in 2 DVDs. It's meant to be a combination of dribble drive and R&R but it leans more to dribble/drive. It's presented as a 4 out 1 in offence only. Comes with a detailed PDF providing details of all 16 phases (layers). If you're new to DDM or read and react these DVD's teach a comprehensive system which can be implemented with younger players and grow with them. It's similar to dribble drive and R&R but I agree with other reviewers that it's not better or sufficiently different to justify the cost if you already understand those offences. Gets 5 stars as it's well done, good value considering all you get and it's available for immediate digital download.
This video is a great mix of two offenses. It works in the Dribble Drive and the Read and React. It helps teach players how to play the game of basketball instead of creating by the book players. I would recommned this video to all coaxches.
This is a great video. I love the way coach fuses the DDM with Read and React. My team has run DDM for four years and I was looking to add more movement and screening actions and this offense was the ticket. Very well made video. Good white board depictions and then coach goes on the court with the players. The video also comes with a PDF you can use to print everything out. That was very helpful. If I was nitpicking, I wish there would have been some good breakdown drills of each phase. I would also like to have seen more 5-on-5 action. All in all worth a look.
The players set up in the same formation as the Read and React checking drill. Expect now both D are on the same team and there is only one forward marking each D. The goalie behind the net tosses a ring to either side and it is the job of the D to read and react if they are going for the ring or moving to a support position. D with the ring must skate through the pylons and pass to the other D over the blueline. In the neutral zone all four players will do five rushes from blueline to redline. Full stops. Stay as close to the boards as possible. 2ff7e9595c
