I think the free flowing read and react offense of soccer would help balance out over coaching in basketball and more plays built off basketball concepts would benefit soccer. But ultimately the creative spark in players must be cherished and developed because that creative spark is what separates teams at the highest level.
I know both sports already have an element of both involved, free flow and then set plays, but I think basketball would benefit from greater emphasis of certain concepts like "playing the way you face", getting off the ball earlier so the offensive players facing the defense could take advantage of the spaces they are facing and can therefore see and soccer would benefit from emphasizing "pick and roll" style actions more often. They do already with 1-2s and the like, but I think there's some low hanging fruit on how to create more effective and consistent attacks
Will I be a sicko for trying to implement Brentford-style kickoff routines with my GU12 rec team?
