Trying to work some things out in my head, and would appreciate some feedback.
So, basic 5 out setup:
Left Corner
Left Wing
Point Guard
Right Wing
Right Corner
Ball is on the right wing, he passes to the point and makes a basket cut.
If the pass isn't there (PG holds the ball), I assume the RW does a sort of U turn and goes to the RC, as the RC is the one who fills the former RW position, correct?
Same setup, ball is on the right wing. He drives to the basket. Who should fill his position? If the intention is to potentially drive and kick, if we fill positions from the weak side there is no one in the left corner to kick it out to (which would seem a likely place to want to kick out to). The RW can of course kick it out to the new LW, or turn around and kick it to the RC, but the second option doesn't seem as good to me. If we fill the RW position from the RC, the LC is still there for the kick-out. But, I think this is generally not the fill pattern we think of and don't want to confuse the kids.
Thoughts?
