The offenses attempt to emphasize certain actions, not players. So if you choose pace and space that maxes out the drive options it means each player is going to be tasked with driving more often than he normally would.
A post up is when a player (typically a big player) will sit in the areas near the basket and the outside players attempt to pass him the ball so that he gets it close to the basket.
A pick and roll happens when a player (usually a big player) comes out to the area at the free throw line or higher and sets a screen (the pick) for the player with the ball attempting to free the player for a shot or a drive to the basket. Once the screen is completed the first player than can "roll" by heading towards the basket for a pass.
Ball movement does mean there will be more passing than usual
Drive and shoot means the player will look to create a shot for himself after he has attempted to drive to the basket while the drive and kick (pass) option means a player wants to drive to draw the attention of the defense but looks to pass to someone who is open because the defense is helping off of them.
Pull up jumpers are when a player maybe takes one or two dribbles and then shoots a jump shot while catch and shoot means the player typically doesn't dribble - he just catches it and shoots it. Either could represent a three point shot.
