[QUOTE="YlJacket, post: 870984, member: 2784"] While other teams are running dribble handoffs with their bigs, it isn't what we run. No one runs with the same lack of spacing that we do - we play in a phone booth with the ball at the foul line which causes everything off the dribble drive handoff by the big to be very compressed. Our guards/wings get the ball going downhill with only one dribble to make a decision on drive/shoot/kick. The other teams that run the dribble handoff by the big are doing it out at the top of the key or higher. Guards/wings get the ball looking to drive from top of the key which while longer does allow them to read the play and have more time to force the help from the wing. Additionally, having the big further out means the big is generally going to be further away from the rim as he has to hedge the screen or just watch the other team shoot (see Kofi). And if there is a switch you want spacing to allow the guard to have time to beat the big to the rim. Doesn't happen when everything is around the foul line. [/QUOTE]
