doesn't everyone? 

Maybe? Maybe not?

what are your thoughts on the dribble drive motion as it relates to the transition game?

I don't have any.

I do like the DDM, though. I think it would be a great offense for kids because you could spend more time on skill development and good decision making and less on where to stand/run to.

"I don't think teams seriously look to score in transition enough," he says. "You get 20 seconds of, 'We're kind of looking to score, we're passing the ball but really not doing anything.' And then, 'OK, here we go, 12 seconds on the shot clock, here comes the high ball screen.'

:cheers:

do you think that all offenses, regardless of player's skill level, benefit from trying to score as much as possible in transition?
i don't.

Some time’s it’s a self fulfilling prophecy maybe?  Like, how do we know that Whisky doesn’t have the skill set to do this when their coach would rather the world ended than a get into transition?

Interestingly enough, when Bo was at Platteville he liked a faster tempo.  There, he emphasized full-court press and scoring in transition.

Admitted LBBIQ but I'm pretty sure  :bill: subscribes to the idea of holding on to the ball as long as possible because of team full of scrubs vs talented opponents.
