It's alright, all you need to understand this episode is:
Basketball animation still isn't anything to write home about, disappointingly enough. It's all been cookie cutter stuff that other non-basketball shows usually resort to anyway... =/

Subaru - the coach Pink-haired basketball ace - Tomoka Blue-haired goggles - Saki Yellow-haired Genki - Maho Smallest gal in the group - Hinata 5. True. One clear advantage that the boys have is endurance, which the girls obviously lack of. But with constant proper diet, exercise, and training, girls can pretty much keep up with the boys in terms of endurance. Back in my grade school days, our gym teacher used to hold boys vs. girls contests ion any exercise or sport we engaged ourselves into. We even played cops and robbers during our free time. But hey, cops and robbers isn't basketball. It's just that B-ball isn't traditionally played by women only until in the recent decades with the WNBA. |

The boys would ignore Hinata. Tomoka and Airi are the ones that the boys would keep there eyes on. Based on Subaru's observation, Saki and Maho will get better in no time, so if the boys finds out those two capabability sooner, the more possible the girls might lose.

omg.... I don't want to be a lolicon because loving this anime.... hahaha
I love the tactics... I don't know how Subaru can develop such variety of tactics to use everyone's special characteristics.... even though I want to see Subaru using Hinata to distract the enemy's captain... hahaha Girl vs Boy?? stamina matters..... it's obvious |

- pass to Airi near the hoop so she can use her height to score. - if Airi's covered with two guys, pass to Saki or Maho who've trained to shoot from one spot. Quote:

In consideration to the girls' unique traits, Subaru used a 4-Out 1-In Motion Offense. The playbook is shown here:
Spoiler for :
Since the girls have only Airi as the "big man", this type of offense suits better for them since Subaru had Saki and Maho do jump shooting drills, Airi "Challenge Shot" drills, and Tomoka "Attack Basket" drills. Because they can only depend on Airi for rebounding and shot-blocking, a perimeter-oriented playbook is better suited for the girls as Tomoka is the only experienced player in their team. In addition, Tomoka shines as a point forward under this system, being able to play multiple positions, including the quintessential point guard, looking for the open man first, then creating her own shot if there is no one open to shoot. One way to utilize the 4-1 offense is to deal with double teams. We know that whenever a double team is employed, there will always be a player left open for a shot. All the ball handler has to do is to find that open man, attack the rim through the open space left by the defense, or settle for a perimeter shot as a last resort. Example of 4-1 Offense: Spoiler for 2011 Dallas Mavericks:

How the hell you even managed to discern the type of offense they're running is way beyond me, since the show pretty much makes no effort in elaborating on that department at all. But kudos and props to you i guess lol

Well hopefully Subaru came up with a plan to help them in the second half. The stamina issue was clear the moment they got half way through the game. Can't be helped since the girls have only been doing serious training for a short period while the boys have been playing in real games for a lot longer. I'm sure this was one reason why Subaru didn't think they had a chance to win. All things even they can hold their own using this strategy, but now it's not even. Might be time to use Hinata's 'skills' . Need the opposition team distracted and not moving as effectively.
Solid move tricking Airi a little. Really they don't have the time to deal with her complex and train for the match. Will be good for her eventually when she realizes how useful her height is. Building up slightly things between Subaru and Tomoka. Just zeroing in on the part about her being in a bath. Plus..."MEDIC!" I barely get basketball and I thought it was fairly obvious what they were trying to do there. Seeing the position that Subaru had Maho and Saki stand at during practice and how close Airi was to the net. Definitely didn't throw overhead shots of the area to give a better view, but did enough.

"Elementary schoolers are the best!"
I seriously choked on my drink when he said that It sounded sooooo wrong, especially since he was shown not to be completely impervious to the girls' "charm" in this episode, unlike what I thought. He first fell for Hinata's cuteness, and then when Tomoka mentioned she just took a bath, his reaction was... yeah. There was also that scene where he blushed after putting his hands on Tomoka's shoulders. His inner lolicon is definitely awakening. Moving on to the basketball. I liked how he psychologically manipulated Airi, even if that wasn't exactly a commendable thing to do. The results were outstanding. If she could get over her height complex, she could become a very solid player. Given the short time he had, it was a good idea to train Saki and Maho to shoot from only one specific area of the field. As for Hinata, I guess her main role will be to tag and distract captain Shota, since he's in love with her.

I just know Subaru has something in store with Hinata for the match. Either way, his inner-lolicon is starting to show up more and more, especially around Tomoka While it can already be decided that Airi will feel horrible later on in the series when the truth eventually hits her. Of course Subaru can still try to deceive her, although it would be prolonging that inevitible. I think a good nickname for Tomoka will eventually appear

Airi: Prismatic Bird(I think)
Maho: Fire Works Saki: Ice Age Hinata: Innocent Charm Tomoka: currently undecided. Don't know about basketball and loli, though the grade schooler in Baby Love was able to fool several people for a while, and I could imagine that height has something to do with it. The best girls in many sport teams are quite tall, and often have a tendency to be very slender, making it a little hard to judge the age. Actual knowledge should stop the guys though. And as I mentioned it seems that "point guard" Hinata is currently meant to simply stay out of the way and wait for her role to come. A role that I imagine will be rather unpleasant for Natsuhi. Would be nice to see Maho get mad about that too, since the first-name basis seems to suggest that she's actually quite close to the guy. |

You can work out that Airi will be camping under the basket (obviously enough), and likewise that Saki and Maho will be doing the same for their spots on the elbows, but other than those three you really can’t confirm where Hinata and Tomoka is suppose to be at all. You can make an educated guess that they’d standing around the perimeter area as well but how can you tell for sure? How do you know for sure that either one or both isn’t/aren’t playing the inside as well? How do you know for sure that they aren’t doing something like a 1-3-1 type offense instead? How do you know for sure that Hinata isn’t relegated to a safety to cover fast breaks and isn’t part of the offense at all? You can’t be sure if any of those are either true or false because the show makes no attempt at addressing where Hinata or Tomoka is meant to be, because dare I say it isn’t as important. It doesn’t matter what they’re both doing because the teams' main strategy so far of ‘abuse Airi’s height until she gets doubled teamed then kick it out to the open person for a wide-open shot’ will still apply regardless. tl;dr You can’t confirm nor verify their exact offense for sure, because the show doesn’t provide anything to proof it. The closest statement one could make to fact would be an educated/reasonable guess in this regard. EDIT: Boys coach is also dumb, because if they had to leave one of the girls open, it should be Hinata who doesn't seem like she can do anything lol
