Message: [QUOTE="Gabjon, post: 3296162, member: 990"] NBA offenses are all either "4-out" or "5-out" offenses. A 4-out offense has one man in the post and 4 guys around the perimeter. This started with the stretch 4, the center often comes up to set a pick lifting all defenders out of the lane. A 5-out offense has all 5 player around the perimeter, the lane is completely open, there are still screens but no one is in the post and all 5 players have to be able to shot, drive and pass. These offenses lead to lots of 3s and lots of layups but little else. Neither one of them work well against zones and you are starting to see more zone in the NBA. [/QUOTE]
