Stop collecting plays. Start building a system.

The System Basketball Framework is designed to help coaches connect the pieces of their program—from spacing and creating gaps to paint touches, decision-making, finishing, shooting, and pressure defense.

It’s not about adding more stuff.

It’s about creating a clear identity your players can understand, execute, and improve within.

I put the framework together in a FREE PDF Guide for coaches who want to start building their system with more purpose.

Comment “FRAMEWORK” and I’ll send you the free guide.

Shoot it. Drive it. Move it.

🏀 TRAINING THE DRIVE IT DECISION | 1 v 1 HOT POTATO

Can your players recognize when it’s time to attack?

The 1 v 1 Hot Potato Drill is all about training players to make quick decisions, attack the defense, and play with an aggressive mindset.

We don’t want players catching the ball and standing around thinking about what to do next.

We want them reading the defense and making a decision on the catch!

🔥 Attack the closeout
🔥 Make quick decisions
🔥 Play with purpose

Shoot it. Drive it. Move it.

How are you training your players to make better decisions?

🏀 CREATE TRIPLE GAPS: Teach the Automatic. Then Give Them a Choice.

One of the keys to creating better offensive spacing is teaching players how to move defenders and create bigger driving gaps.

Our Slot-to-Slot Actions give players different ways to attack defensive coverage:

✅ Thru Cut (Fingers) – Our automatic cut.

✅ Nail Cut – An option against aggressive pressure.

✅ Blur Cut – Another way to attack aggressive pressure.

✅ Fan Cut – Can start as a call and eventually become a player-driven choice.

The goal isn’t to memorize more plays. It’s to teach players how to recognize coverage, create space, and make the right decision.

We teach the automatic first. Then we teach the choice.

Is it just me, or has SoCal been unusually quiet this October? 😂

I think this is the fewest fireworks I’ve heard in years!

Is it the economy making fireworks too expensive, or have the Dodgers just not given people enough reasons to celebrate? ⚾️💥🤣

Not complaining about the peace and quiet… just wondering what’s going on! 😂

Which Dribble Drive Motion spacing is right for your team?

Spacing isn’t just about where players stand. It’s about creating gaps, opening driving lanes, and putting defenders in difficult decisions.

Here are 3 DDM spacing options:

🏀 4-Out 1-In (Dunker Spot) – Four perimeter players with one in the dunker spot to create opportunities around the rim.

🏀 4-Out 1-In (2-Side) – Creates a two-player side while maintaining spacing and opportunities to attack gaps.

🏀 5-Out – Two slots, two corners, and one 45 (wing) to stretch the defense and open driving lanes.

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. Your personnel, strengths, and how you want to attack should determine your spacing.

The goal isn’t just to spread the floor. It’s to create advantages and teach players how to recognize and use them.

Shoot it. Drive it. Move it.

Which spacing do you use with your team — 1, 2, or 3?

Four minutes. Four basketballs. Compete against the clock.

I like shooting drills that give players reps without removing the competitive piece.

Four-Minute Shooting is simple:

Shoot → rebound → pass → sprint to the opposite end.

Now the shooting has a consequence, a pace, and a team goal.

Set four minutes on the clock and track the number of made 3s.

20 years today.

If you’re a coach, you know your spouse ends up being part of the coaching life whether they signed up for it or not.

Late practices, games, weekends in gyms, phone calls, film, clinics, camps, road trips… and plenty of times when your mind is still on basketball even when you’re home.

Yvette has been there through all of it.

30 seasons of coaching, different schools, wins, losses, job changes, raising a family, building System Basketball and everything else life has thrown our way.

Today basketball can wait.

Happy 20th Anniversary, Yvette. ❤️

Thank you for always being in my corner. by @coachmarchart

Zipper Get 🏀

A simple action that flows right into a two-man game.

1️⃣ 1 dribbles to the wing
2️⃣ 3 sets the zipper screen
3️⃣ 5 comes off the zipper for the pass from 1
4️⃣ 1 and 5 immediately flow into the Get action

No standing. No resetting. Just flow from one action into the next and force the defense to make multiple decisions.

Want the entire Zipper Series?

The full clinic is available inside the System Basketball Community with clinics, practice labs, games, and coaching resources.

The Drag Corner Cut is a simple basketball action that creates a bigger driving gap for the ball handler coming off a drag ball screen.

As the corner player cuts through, the stretch player fills the corner. That movement forces the defense to make a decision while creating more space for the ball handler to attack downhill.

This is what we want from our offensive actions:

🏀 Create bigger gaps
🏀 Generate paint touches
🏀 Maintain proper spacing
🏀 Force defensive decisions
🏀 Create layups, free throws and open 3s

Don’t just run a ball screen. Use player movement and spacing to create the advantage.

Shoot it. Drive it. Move it.
