How To Play Without
a True Point Guard
How
often have you had to play a season without a good point guard? How often
have you heard other coaches say their team would be good if they just
had a good point guard? There is no question but that it is difficult to
field a quality basketball team without a quality point guard-one that
can lead the team against good defensive pressure, make good decisions
with the ball, have the speed to ignite a team's fast break, put
defensive pressure on the opponents point guard, and execute the many
other things a good point guard has to do.
What do you do when you are faced with a season without good point guard
play? You certainly cannot put a mediocre point guard on the floor and
expect him to run your offense and defense like a quality point guard
would do. Possibly you have a great offense that you have used for years,
but that offense requires a good point guard to "run the show".

How To Play
An Effective 3-2 Zone
3-2 (1-2-2) zones are commonly used to defend teams with
good outside shooting and/or weaker post players. You can also use it as
a trapping defense.
There are basic rotations and positions of the 3-2 (1-2-2) zone and then
there are other options like trapping from them. See the full article here

Running A Simple
Offence Set
If you're a youth coach, this offense is continuous and has
a very simple motion. Even if you're not a youth coach, I've seen this
offense used at the High School Varsity level.
Personnel - You want Players 4 & 5 to be your post players. You want
players 1, 2, & 3 to have good ball handling skills. All your players
will cover every spot on the floor after a few rotations.
