3v3 Fingers + Triple Gap Drive (with Escape)
5- to 6-minute segments in practice is all it takes to tighten up your conceptual offense. I love 3v3 games to fine-tune our offense.
Slot-Slot-Post is the set-up for this SSG. play with a :06-:10 shot clock. Fingers (Slice) action only after the pass. The post player escapes out on the drive if he finds himself on the same side as the drive.

Brilliant breakdown of keeping things sharp mid-season. The point about running actions faster is something I've been wrestling with lately becuase most coaches focus on teaching the action itself but not the tempo, which kills spacing. I've found when players hesitate between reads, defenders recover too easily and suddenly you need two more passes just to get back to square one. The slice action with the post escape is clever too, really forces decision-making under that short clock pressure.
