Motion offense also utilize
A motion offense is a category of offensive scheme used in basketball. Motion offenses utilize player movement, often as a strategy to exploit quickness of the offensive team or to neutralize a size advantage of the defense. The flex offense and the shuffle offense are motion offenses.
A motion offense, though often free-flowing and unrestricted, follows a few basic tenets.
- Pass and screen away: Players pass to one side of the court and seek to screen for players on the opposite side of the court. The hope is to create spacing and driving lanes to basket.
- Back screen: Players in the key seek to screen players on the wing and open them up for basket cuts.
