Just got thinking about it a bit. Which is the better way to disrupt a zone defense? Penetrate and dish Shoot a bunch of 3 pointers Other I'd like some links, or some reasoning/examples of ways that prove your position.
When you shoot those 3s, you need to make them... Moving without the ball. Find the seams in the zones, and be able to catch and shoot, before the defender can guard you. There really aren't many ways to attack zones. Also, push the tempo when you get the rebound, this will not allow the defense to get setup in their zone D to begin with.
No way dude there are plenty. Split the zones Player Movement Inside targets Patience Finding gaps Overloading dribble penetration BALL Reversal Screening (extremely under used) Ball movement is the key as it can change the shape of the zone. There are 100s (and more) of Structured Zone Offense here is a good link for structured zone offenses http://bbhighway.telebasket.com/ for general theories try here http://bbhighway.telebasket.com/
