BC Lietuvos Rytas head coach Dainius Adomaitis runs the most efficient ATO plays in the Lithuanian LKL. Rytas also lead the league in PPP (per synergy) on play with the roll man. This play is an excellent way to get into an angle pick-and-roll and blur the defensive responsibilities. the first baseline cut from the 3 empties the paint and then the 4 man cuts behind the help forcing his defender to choose help or his duck-in.
-
5 sets the "Zipper" screen down for 2. Cut up the lane line to receive the pass from 1. 3 clears to the strong-side corner to replace 2.
-
5 immediately follows 2 and sets the angle pick-and-roll. 4 cuts the baseline as the screen is set, looking to get behind the help. 5 short rolls to the FT line. 1 drifts to the weak-side corner.
-
The entry can be twisted with a GET from 2 back to 1.
