I wouldn't know a back cut from a crew cut. I don't squat about X and O in basketball. But I would like to learn.

Please explain what your title means. Thanks and a tp for payment in advance. :)

I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

Overplaying is when a defensive player cheats on his man ballside.  This tries to  deny him the ball.

When this happens the player being guarded should backcut or backdoor cut.   A backcut means he goes to hole behind the defense, in hopes that he will be open becaused the other guy over played.  Because the defense is cheating so much to deny he should have easy access to the rim.

I would cut any time the defender didn't have his hand on me to feel me, and looked away from me.   Defender turns his head and doesn't feel you it is time to cut to the bucket folks.

I try to teach the young kids I play with this all the time.

If your man is overplaying you, cut to the basket.

Do we need to send Stevens some links to Red on Roundball, lol? ;D  I realize that this is from the triangle, but the last sequence of this clip is what we should have been doing throughout the entire game, preferably with Sully, imo, because of his passing skills.

Brad is pretty young.

I have been watching pro basketball longer than he has been alive.

young team is bound to make misstakes - on the other hands they did pretty good on D last couple of games trapping ballhandlers in the backcourt and disrupt offence with double team action
