In this episode of The Hours by Savi Coaching, host Mark Cascio is joined by Director of Player Development and former 10-year pro Mike Carlson to break down the unscripted moments of basketball that you can't call from the sideline. Together, they dive into the "gray areas" of the game—the fine line between cutting and clogging space, when to gamble on defense, and how to build an aggressive, relentless offensive rebounding system. 🔔 Subscribe and hit the bell so you never miss an episode of The Hours. 🏀 Basketball Training by SAVI: A player community for basketball education, structured programs, and skill development. https://www.skool.com/training-savi/ 🏀 TRY SAVI BASKETBALL FREE FOR 7 DAYS Get access to our full course library, weekly live coaching calls, and a community of coaches working through the same questions. https://savicoach.com/membership 📩 JOIN THE WEEKLY NEWSLETTER Coaching notes, practice tools, and episode breakdowns delivered to your inbox every week. https://savi.beehiiv.com/ 📱 Follow us on Instagram: @SAVI_coaching CHAPTERS: 00:00 - The Gray Areas of gameplay 03:53 - Biggest Gray Area as a player 16:57 - Offensive Rebounding Gray Area 23:37 - Savi transition defensive philosophy 28:42 - When do you gamble on defense?
