The Princeton offense is an offensive basketball strategy which emphasizes constant motion, passing, back-door cuts, picks on and off the ball, and disciplined teamwork. It was used and perfected at Princeton University by Pete Carril, though its roots may be traced back to Franklin “Cappy” Cappon, who coached Princeton in the late 1930s,〔"Cappon Succumbs To Heart Attack: 'Cappy' Dies After Practice At Princeton". Holland Evening Sentinel. 1961-11-30.〕 and Bernard "Red" Sarachek, who coached at Yeshiva University from 1938 to 1977.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.macslive.com/sarachek/info.php?page=news&newsid=87 )〕 The offense is designed for a unit of 5 players who can each pass, shoot and dribble at an above average level. It attempts to isolate and exploit a mismatch using these skills.〔 Positions become less important and on offense there is no point guard, shooting guard, small forward or power forward. The offense usually starts out with four players outside the three-point arc with one player at the top of the key. The ball is kept in constant motion through passing until either a mismatch allows a player to cut to the basket or a player without the ball cuts toward the unoccupied area under and around the basket, and is passed the ball for a layup. Having a strong post player is important because this player is critical to passing to backdoor cutters, and can draw help defense to open outside shots. The hallmark of the offense is the backdoor pass, where a player on the wing suddenly moves in towards the basket, receives a bounce pass from a guard on the perimeter, and (if done correctly) finds himself with no defenders between him and a layup. Alternatively, when the defensive team attempts to pack the paint to prevent backdoor cuts, the offense utilizes three point shots from the perimeter. All five players in the offense—including the center—should be competent at making a three point attempt, further spreading the floor. The offense is often a very slow developing one, relying on a high number of passes, and is often used in college basketball by teams facing opponents with superior athletic talent, to maintain a low-scoring game (believing that a high-scoring game would favor the athletically superior opponent). As a result, Princeton has led the nation in scoring defense 19 times including every year from 1989–2000. ==Examples of use== Versions of the Princeton offense have been run by the Cleveland Cavaliers, New Orleans Hornets, New Jersey Nets, Sacramento Kings, Washington Wizards, and Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA. A modified version based on Peter Carril's system was introduced by Rick Adelman to the Houston Rockets during the 2007-08 season. Coach Alvin Gentry also implemented an altered version of it, that shows similarities to the triangle offense, during the Phoenix Suns' 2012-13 NBA season. Coach Eddie Jordan implemented this offense while coach of both the Washington Wizards (2003–2008) and the Philadelphia 76ers (2009–2010). Some of the college teams best known for utilizing the offense (besides Princeton) are: *Georgetown under John Thompson III, who played under Carril at Princeton and was later its head coach *Air Force under Joe Scott, a former Carril player and protégé and former Princeton head coach *Holy Cross under Bill Carmody, another Carril protégé and a former Princeton head coach *Richmond under Chris Mooney, a former Princeton player and assistant coach at Air Force *American University under Mike Brennan, a former Princeton player and assistant coach *Brown University and Oregon State University under Craig Robinson, a former Princeton player and Northwestern assistant coach *Samford University under Jimmy Tillette *University of Southern California under Tim Floyd *University of Denver under former Princeton coach Joe Scott *University of North Dakota under Brian Jones *University of Notre Dame under Muffet McGraw *University of Virginia under Tony Bennett, loosely based on the general principles of the Princeton Offense *University of Colorado, under head coach Jeff Bzdelik *University of Wisconsin, under coach Bo Ryan, runs the Swing Offense, which is loosely based on the Princeton. *College of William and Mary under Tony Shaver At the NCAA II Level: *The University of Alabama in Huntsville under Lennie Acuff *Rollins College under Tom Klusman *Seattle Pacific University under Jeff Hironaka *Christian Brothers University under Mike Nienaber *Maryville University under Kevin Carroll At the Division III Level: St. Thomas University, St. Paul, MN Under John Tauer PHD At the High School Level: *Sir Winston Churchill Secondary School (Vancouver) under Kevin Sandher *Memorial High School (Texas) in Houston, Texas under David Lay *Holy Cross High School (New Jersey) in Delran, NJ under Barry Harper *Cardinal Leger Secondary School (Brampton) under Steve Pettit *Gibson Southern High School under Jerry O'Brien 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Princeton offense」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
