On a lark two friends and I decided to join a basketball rec league. We were matched up with 10 other people to make a team. We've played two games now and were blown out badly each time.
I'm doing alright, mostly because I'm 6'4" so I can usually get some baskets just shooting over people. But nobody else on the team seems to be capable of scoring the ball consistently. The only other way we get baskets is just like a mad scramble under the hoop where if we get the rebound three times in a row it will eventually go in. Nobody on the team can shoot very well and when we try to pass it closer to the hoop it often gets stolen.
We need to learn how to run some plays or something to be able to score more efficiently. But we only have like 20 minutes before the game and during halftime to work on something.
What's the basic thing we should practise to become good enough to win at least one game?
