MORE MOTION THOUGHTS FROM LARRY GIBSON

A few more notes on Larry Gibson's motion courtesy Coach Eric Musselman:

SELLING MOTION TO THE PLAYERS

Definition:
Discipline free lance (controlled freedom)
Player and ball movement within our rules

Qualities a player must possess:
Unselfishness - There must be a commitment to teamplay.
Patience - To get the shot you want, you must make 4passes in order to utilize movement and screening.
Concentration - Players must be aware of: (1) Howthey are being defensed, (2) what their teammates aredoing.
