San Antonio Spurs Coach Popovich implements a very unique team offense called 0.5 rule and this is a really good way of practicing players to become good at quick decision making as well as improving the ball movement. Here is the quote from Villanova Coach Jay Wright.
“One simple thing,” Wright said. “He has a ‘.5 rule.’ Hold the ball for .5 seconds; if you don’t shoot it, drive it, or pass it in .5 seconds, he’s on you. He wants that ball moving, and he wants people moving. And he really holds the guys accountable to that. I really that. It’s one of a number of things that we have implemented here in our program.”
Basics of the triple threats are "shoot", "dribble", and "pass". Quick decision making on these actions are required in a very instant moment. On the other hand, players without a ball would need to build a continuity in order for the ball to flow. Restricting to ".5 second" stall in the flow is almost non stop. It is difficult but it does seem to pay the price in a good way as Spurs have already proven their excellence in their team offense.
