CLINIC NOTES: JAMIE DIXON

JAMIE DIXON
ZONE OFFENSE
8/3/07

Look back at previous years practice plans
Reach out to people
Asst to head didn’t change much – don’t want them to think you’re phony
Learn to delegate

We are known for defense and rebounding
We are good offensively, but people think Pitt and think Def & Reb

Zone
1. Keep it simple
2. Patience
3. Inside touch
4. Crash

Lots of plays but we rep it!!
3 out/2 in
Bigs X the paint except on skip – skip & follow
If big at high post is denied, he becomes screener
Big look in and then opposite – shot, partner, opposite
On the 3 guards’ movement, cut to a slightly different spot
Get attempt to have a chance to rebound…always have 3 to off boards
Vs. 1-3-1, spaced but active on the glass
Sets to start vs. zone…lots of ballscreens to get penetration
Sets and man plays vs. matchup
Begin zone off work 1st day of practice
Closed practices, but open & welcome for coaches to attend
