Mark Few and the Gonzaga Offensive Concepts:1. Attack: Whether it’s coming off the rim or out of the net, we are attacking and getting the ball down the floor as quickly as they can to put pressure on the defense. We want GREAT shots early in the clock. We firmly believe that an open three early is often as good a look as you’ll get all possession.
2. Get to the Free Throw Line: The most underrated aspect of offensive basketball as roughly 25% points scored in division 1 basketball are from the free throw stripe. We have 2 goals surrounding this: make more free throws than the other team attempts and to be in the bonus by the 2nd media timeout (8 minutes in).
3. Limit Turnovers: Worst thing you can do offensively is turn it over because it allows you no chance for an offensive rebound or a chance to go to the FT line.
