Huh, so using two hands is more accurate than using one hand. Interesting.

Huh, so using two hands is more accurate than using one hand. Interesting. Coaches for decades have discouraged unnecessary one-handed passes because you can't effectively pull back a one-handed pass like you can when making a two-handed pass. Several Beavers opt to throw a one-handed pass at times. If a one-handed pass is successful, it looks good. When it results in a turnover because the passer can't adjust the pass with just one hand, I harken back to my high school days when my coach would denounce one-handed passes that resulted in turnovers. |

Yes. When you are dribbling the ball and with one hand you pass it without gaining full control there is a higher chance of an errant pass.

Coach has been scouted and his old and very successful system has been pulled apart, it is time to change it up.
We take too long to pass and pass too little, better teams are quickly up the court and have 6 or more passes (to move the D) before 20 seconds, we are lucky to have 2 passes in the first 20 seconds. We don't move the ball quick enough or hardly enough, which forces someone like Kat to sit and collect dust in the corner.
Motion offence, more off ball movement and quicker passing will fix it but that ain't coaches style so i think the team is doing what they are told and a small tweak is needed from the front office not the back court.
We will find a way to win because it is in everyone's DNA - and I believe we will come home a bit stronger and surprise everyone - Go Beavs

The passing was better today in the 2nd half when we had 4 guards on the floor.

Ironically, our passing also improved when Kal decided to throw the full court press at us in the 2nd half. We shredded it.
Got us playing more uptempo and passing the ball ahead and finding shooters and easy drives to the hoop. Of course, it helps
the Kal is very young and in a new system. Who knows how often they've pressed in game situations.

Who knows how often they've pressed in game situations. I like to see the Beavs attack after breaking the press rather than circle out and restart the offense. Kat's made three yesterday was in transition after the press was broken. Teams will only stop pressing tightly when your team is able to score after breaking the press. |

You are 1000% correct that teams will stop pressing when you score layup after layup by breaking their press and getting 2 on 1, or 3 on 2, or even 1 on none situations. The Beavers have just the dynamic guards in Slocum, Pivek, and Goodman to do just that. Excellent observation on your part. Also Coach Rueck does not have to alter his basic philosophy to utilize this strategy.
