OK, I found this after someone's post on a different thread. The diagrams did not copy, but the words are interesting. Does BC even do this? It is more like 4 guys on the perimeter passing the ball to each other before jacking up a long shot.
Basketball- Leopard Continuity Zone Offense
Jim Christian while at Kent State University designed this offense. He is currently the coach at Texas Christian University. The offense was created when he had to play Syracuse and he designed it to allow his best players to attack the middle of the zone. The 1,2,3,and 4 can attack while the 5 has the license to roam the post areas and the short corners. The 5 does not come out of the paint area.
The offense starts out in a 1-3-1 look with the ball centered and the post starting behind the zone. It can also start off in a 1-1-3 look with the wings moving up to receive the wing pass after the PG
drags her man.
The point guard drags her man and passes to the wing. This triggers the following actions. 1. The middle player at the FT line cuts to the corner trying to drag the low man of the zone
out. 2. The post cuts to the ball side staying low if the low man of the zone moves out to cover the corner (may stay opposite also) 3. The opposite wing makes a V-cut to fill the high post area at the FT lane 4. The PG repositions to the opposite side and has her left foot forward and is in a shooting position
To reverse the ball, the wing makes 1 or 2 hard dribbles back toward the mid-court area and toward the center of the floor and passes to the top player on the opposite side of the floor. This happens to be the PG here and the PG comes to meet the pass. The passer cuts to the opposite corner. The player at the mid-lane area makes a L-cut to fill the weak side high elbow area and the corner player cuts to the mid-lane high post off of the tail of the high post player.
Throughout this offense, we are looking to attack. The PG (or any top player) can hit the wing, pass to the high lane cutter or pass the ball back to the other high elbow player. Again, the high lane (high post) player cuts to the ball side corner on any top to top pass or top to wing pass.
On the top to wing pass when there is no player on the weak side of the floor, the opposite high elbow player cuts to fill the high post position and the passer cuts to the opposite corner. On the top to corner pass, the corner looks to feed the post, the high post repositions to the high elbow and the passer cuts to the opposite side corner.
