Offensive Strategy
The goal of the offense is to score points. In order to accomplish this goal, coaches and players plan and execute plays - based on a variety of factors: The players involved, the opponent’s defensive strategy, the amount of time remaining before halftime or the end of the game, and the number of points needed to score to win the game. Strategically, the offense can prolong their possession of the ball to prevent the opponent from scoring.

Famous quotes containing the words offensive and/or strategy:
“There is something about the literary life that repels me, all this desperate building of castles on cobwebs, the long-drawn acrimonious struggle to make something important which we all know will be gone forever in a few years, the miasma of failure which is to me almost as offensive as the cheap gaudiness of popular success.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
“The best strategy in life is diligence.”
—Chinese proverb.
