For example, on the fastbreak, if a player is between me and the basket I draw the defender toward me and pass to the open player. If the defender is in the passing lane, I take it hard to the basket for a lay-up. It's a simple yes-no decision. Timing is critical to play execution. Your players may be able to execute a pattern perfectly at a slower speed and but put that same play at game speed and the decision making time significantly reduced.
Timing is a fundamental part of all offensive patterns.
