I mean, what are some of the things that you've, you've been doing?
32:39
We, we actually are very similar in that we would look to, to cut and slide.
32:44
So staying with that side pick and roll as an example.
32:46
But like I was saying earlier in the conversation, our, our kind of flow offense is a little bit of a hybrid between flow and conceptual in that we, I'd say it's more of a scaffold than a framework for our players to work within.
32:59
So they have three or four options every time the ball hits a certain side of the floor.
33:03
And so for us, the off ball player, what we're actually asking them to perceive and what we need to teach them is to also read whether there is advantage created in the two on two pick and roll action.
33:14
So if you're that weak side corner guy, well not only are you reading your defender who's become the roll tag, but you're also now reading can the ball handler or the, the, the roller create any form of advantage as well? So for us, and I, and I know flow, kind of flow offense now is becoming quite universal and en vogue as a lot of teams play through it.

How are you, uh, how are you presenting that media?

Is that, you know, is that how it is for you?
6:02
you?To a certain extent, yes.
6:04
So if you were to imagine we're playing in transition, and our rule was if our big was behind the ball, he had to stay behind the ball and fill the trail spot.
6:14
If our big was ahead of the ball, he had to rim run and be on the rim.
6:18
So we would typically either arrive five out or four out, one in.
6:23
Even in those moments where we would have an empty corner, we actually cut through from the weak side if we ended up in a three side to fill strong side corner.
6:31
And I liked making that cut because it changed the defense and it shifted the defense.

But can we talk a little bit about what happens when coaches make their players run five on O to get the, you know, quote unquote, "Get the patterns down." And I wanna ask you, what can coaches do instead? And also can you share some small-sided games or constraint ideas that you used when you, you know, when you installed these kind of flow offenses into a five on five or, or a- any other game?
