Hi, this is Sean Hobson and right now we're working on our motion offense. What we?re going to show you right now is quickly, our first pass off of the motion offense and then what we're going to do on the second pass. So, obviously, on the first pass we start in a one-four low set, we've got these guys to pop up on the wing. Now, our point guard is going to go ahead and make the pass, that's the first pass. Now, remember, on the first pass, our posts are going to screen away. Now, here's what we want to happen on the second pass, our first option on the second pass is, we want to try to get it in to the post. As soon as that screen is set by our center across, we want the other post player to come, we want this guy to fake it up, set up his man and drop it down to the post. Ninety percent of the time, when you run this motion offense, that post player is open. That's where we want to get the ball. So the first pass comes to the wing, everybody screens away, on the first pass everybody screens away. When they screen away, the second pass we want to go into the post, that's our main place that we want to go to. We want to try to pound the ball into the post on the second pass.
