BOB KNIGHT ON CUTTING

A few thoughts on cutting from Coach Bob Knight --

While screening is the most important thing a player can do in helping a teammate get open, cutting is the most important way a player can contribute to our offense through his own efforts.

Keys to Cutting:
Must be set up and made with good cutting
Cut must have a definite purpose

The most essential part of the cut is the ability of the cutter to read the defensive man.
