College Basketball Hall of Fame (2006)Transition offense is a staple in today’s college game. As a head coach from 1988 through 2021, Roy Williams created one of the most successful transition offenses in the nation. Along with building one of the most efficient transition offenses, Williams created an unstoppable rebounding force with his big men. In this excellent presentation, Coach Williams will guide you through some of the concepts, teaching points, and sets you need to build your transition offense and rebounding game into an unstoppable force!
Philosophy
Coach Williams started out at the high school level building a program from the ground up. Beginning with early bumps he learned that you have to get more quality shots than your opponent and get more opportunities with the basketball than your opponent. This all starts with rebounding the basketball and pushing the ball as fast as possible up the floor. These are the things that coach dives into and demonstrates how he made his teams so successful at transition offense and rebounding on both ends of the floor.
Primary and Secondary Offense
From his legendary first 15 years as a head coach at Kansas to his last 18 years at UNC, running the basketball has been a staple of all of Roy Williams’ teams. The drills, concepts, and techniques Williams has taught throughout the years always put his programs at the top in transition offense. In this video, you will see how Coach Williams trains his players to hunt for layups and shots in the paint for your post players. Williams showcases when to swing the basketball and helps teach your players when they need to move from primary break layups into secondary break and into looking for the quality shot. All of this can’t start unless you get the ball out of the basket quickly and push up the floor and by putting pressure on your opponents. All of these things contribute to making your program an unstoppable transition team!
Sets
Kickback and B3.
Rounding out this video are Coach Williams’ top sets he includes when moving from secondary break into half court offense. In Kickback, you will see how he uses a post feed option to include a scoring play where you look for the open skip pass 3 especially once your post player is doubled or taken out of play. Your top shooter will come off of a double stagger looking to score an open 3. In B3, players are looking for the post, slashing to the basket off of a back screen and looking to post up. These sets created many easy buckets from the perimeter and around the rim and helped create confidence in his players.
In this video, Coach Williams shows you how to play at a fast pace everyday in practice preparing your players to push opponents to the brink. You will want this video to add to your collection in order to build your transition and rebounding game!
