Back To Basic : Pass

Pass in simplicity, is a ball move from a player toward another.

The quality desire for a pass is fast enough to escape any potential obstruction and soft enough to be received by team member.

A fast pass is most important when passing to the center of the court, since there will be more opponent at the center.

A pass that is too fast won't be able to be stop by the receiving team member, thus defeating the purpose of a pass. There is no point passing if your team member can't get the ball. So the pass must be soft so the pass could be receive easily.

These two aforementioned points is contradictory to each other in the most paradoxical way. I would like to clarify this conundrum,  by demonstrating that these points is legitimate, reasonable and logical. The key is balance. The ball need to move just fast enough to escape any potential obstruction and just soft enough to be easily receive by a team member.

There is much could be said upon this subject,but I would end this monograph for now.However, I do hope you still find this simple monograph practical.  In short, passing is an art in itself.
