THE IMPORTANCE OF HALF-COURT OFFENSE

Regardless of your desire to run, remember 3 keys:

Seventy-five percent of all field goals come in half-court situations
The better your opponent, the lesser number of transition opportunities.
Transition baskets decrease on the road.
Secondary Attack (men) 27 (percent) .076 (women) 6 (percent) .081

From Bob's studies the thought for me is this: creating a good transition offense is important. But if you want to win and win consistently, you better be effective in half-court basketball.
