Offensive strategies try to free a player for a good scoring opportunity. The offense may run plays that require a number of passes and constant movement by the five players. A successful play will produce a good shot or cause a defender to commit a foul. Players may set a screen or pick to free a teammate for a shot. In a screen or pick, an offensive player legally blocks a defensive player with his or her body so the defensive player cannot guard the player with the ball. That player can then take an open shot.
The fast break is designed to score quickly after the offensive team gains possession of the ball. The offense tries to get at least one of its players ahead of the defense for an easy shot before the defenders can move into proper play.
The delay is an offensive strategy that is primarily designed to use up time, rather than to score. Teams often use a delay to protect a lead late in the game, passing and dribbling to keep the ball away from the other team. Check out our African American Christmas Nutcrackers.
There are two types of team defense, zone and man to man. In a zone defense, each player is assigned a particular area of the front court to defend. In man to man defense, each player guards a particular offensive player on all parts of the court. The zone defense is prohibited in the NBA.
One variation of the two defenses is the press. The press is designed to put defensive pressure on the offensive team all over the court. The press tries to force the offensive into a turnover (losing possession of the ball.) Pressing defenses often use a tactic called the trap or double team. In a trap, two defensive players suddenly converge on the player with the ball, trying to force that player into making a turnover. Select to view our selection of Christmas Stocking Stuffers.
