ADVICE

Balancing Affordances in Set Plays

Teach players to recognize the difference between 'gold' affordances (high-percentage opportunities to end a play, such as open shots or layups) and affordances that crack the defense's 'ice' but aren't immediately advantageous.
Encourage players to trust the system and decline less productive affordances early in the play to exploit better opportunities later on as the play develops.
Explain that multiple actions in a patterned set often work together to create more advantageous situations than isolated individual moves.
Some players may try to take early opportunities to mask their unfamiliarity with later parts of the play.
It's crucial to emphasize running plays to completion to learn the full pattern and develop the patience for bigger payoffs.
