DO:

• Look up and see the whole floor.
• Pass ahead to the open player (until someone has a good scoring opportunity)
• Sprint the floor. (Run! Run! Run!)
• Play under control.
• Let the play make itself.
• Read the numbers. Go where you have an advantage.
• Get wide to fill the lanes.
• Make the easy play.
• When bringing the ball down in the middle, stop at the foul line to make a play.
• Use the chest pass on the break; the bounce pass is too hard to handle.
• If the back player (trailer), delay at half court to cover the break defensively.
• Be a good receiver.
• COMMUNICATE!

DON’T:

• Have your mind made up about what you want to do.
• Overpass.
• Jump to pass.
• Pass to a player in trouble.
• Take giant steps. (Settle for the open 12-footer instead of the contested 8-footer)
