We have signed up for a 3 on 3 basketball tournament on July 21st. It is sponsored in a small town, so hopefully our competition will be good but not too pro. The team I have created is myself with 3 friends, these guys will be position players. For easier consumption of each players identity I am naming them, player1, player2, player3, player4 (myself).
Player1 is our pure shooter, he handles the ball really well, gets seperation and can drain the basket with 80% accuracy. Player2 is our big man inside, he will play the post, trash ball, set screens, picks and rebounding. I believe this position will help us progress the farthest into the tournament if he plays well. Player3 is are all around player, he can shoot, rebound, set picks and handle the ball at the top of the key. This leaves me as Player4, I don't have the strongest skills so I am probably the weakest link for this team. What I do add as value is my speed, my strong intermediate shot, my basic ball handling, as well as court vision. With these I should be able to set players up to be in good positions to score. If we use our canned set of plays which I plan on using, we shouldn't have too much difficulty.
Any suggestions of strategies I can incorporate into my game plan? Should we use the tried and true plays of, 'give and go', 'pick and roll', 'downscreen curls, and low post feeds'? Or should we just shoot and crash the boards?
