Packers bye week mailbag: Difficult decisions ahead
Using film to break down NBA games is more prevalent on social media than ever before. That means you must keep up with all of the acronyms such as DHO, SLOB, and ATO that get thrown around all willy-nilly. Luckily for you, the Milwaukee Bucks Film Room Dictionary will help you become a smarter fan.
Every Sunday, I’ll break down a different term and give video examples about what it looks like. Last week we dove into Sideline Out of Bounds (SLOB) plays and how the Bucks use them to build upon each other. This week, I define dribble handoffs (DHO).
The goal is to help you become a smarter basketball fan and understand the game at a higher level.
To help you become a smarter Milwaukee Bucks fan, the Bucks Film Room Dictionary will define a new term weekly that you should know.
The format of each video will be as follows:
- Term and short definition
- Detailed explanation with diagrammed videos.
- Why it matters to you.
Dribble Handoffs are a normal part of the Bucks’ offense this season and are important to know. Head coach Mike Budenholzer doesn’t like to run a ton of set offense, but he does have certain rules in place. One of them appears to be that a DHO action is initiated when the ball-handler dribbles toward a player in the corner. This opens up many options for the offense, gets the defense moving, and creates advantageous opportunities for the Bucks.
These DHOs are an integral part of the Bucks’ offense. It helps keep the flow going when they aren’t in set plays and ensures good ball movement. Milwaukee likes to give everyone on the court an opportunity to score the rock, and this creates opportunities to do just that. Keep your eye out for these moving forward.
A new term will be released in the dictionary every Sunday. Please feel free to comment on the YouTube video about future terms you want to see defined.
