Few plays in basketball are more exciting for the fans or more devastating to the opponent than the fast break. But what happens when a team starts a fast break and has to abort it? This is when a good half-court offense comes into play, and how a team handles that situation can mean the difference between winning and losing. Basketball's Offensive Sets is the most complete book available on half-court offensive plays. Author Tom Reiter has included a complete guide to sets that can be customized to meet the needs of any team. There are quick-hitters that can be used following timeouts and other breaks in game action, and plays that can be run when the initial fast break doesn't work out. Reiter explains the half-court offense's potentials, the defensive weaknesses it can exploit and the type of personnel to make it most effective.
