Favorite Send to FastDrawI am sure I have posted this play in the past but it is one of my favorites so I wanted to post it again! The Golden State Warriors went to this action in the 1st Half of Game 4 versus the San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference Semi-Finals. This elbow set into a flex action is very popular in the NBA; Stan Van Gundy ran it religiously in Orlando. While us coaches are all very familiar with the Flex, I have learned recently that many young players today are not familiar with how to run the play NOR guard it. In my opinion, if you have two great scorers on the floor, this is a very difficult action to guard. The defense has to respect the flex cut give up a lay-up. Then by pinning down on the screener, the defense must make a decision how to guard and if they over-react the big will be open slipping to the rim. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThis play establishes several isolations and mixes a segment of the Triangle Offense with a backdoor cut and ball screen. Great set for mismatches and for players who can handle the ball & attack the basket. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawMonday night in Game 2 of the NBA Playoffs, the Chicago Bulls ran this elbow pick & roll action in their win over the Brooklyn Nets. The Bulls are a dangerous team with Hinrich and Robinson on the floor giving them the ability to run pick & rolls for two excellent point guards who are also capable shooters. See More

Favorite Send to FastDrawThe Denver Pioneers Coached by Joe Scott a former Princeton Head & Assistant Coach run their Offense to perfection with good spacing, precision cuts, and strong reads. The Pioneers have advanced in the NIT to face Maryland in the next round and this team has played strong since January going 17-2. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawFor this set line up your best shooter opposite of the high post entry pass. Try to make your high post entry pass into your best post passer so he can make the pass to your other post off of the diagonal screen. This play is from the 2012-2013 Wisconsin Green Bay season.

Favorite Send to FastDrawMake sure your 1 sets a good cross screen to get open of of the down screen from 4. Practice with your 2 on setting up his defender so he can get an open shot off of 5's pin down screen. This play is from the 2010-2011 Houston Rockets season. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawNorflok State had a dream run last year at the NCAA Tournament knocking off Missouri. This year they ran up against one of the most difficult opponents to play against style wise in Virginia in the NIT. Here is a good 1-4 set play from Norfolk State See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThe key to this play is 2 setting a good diagonal screen on 5 forcing his defender to help. This play is from the 2010-2011 Houston Rockets season. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawFor this set make your high post entry to your best passing big. Line up your biggest wing opposite corner of where the high post entry pass is going, so if the defense switches guard to guard screening action, you have a size mismatch. Make sure you sell to your point guards that setting a good cross screen will help get them an open shot off of 5's down screen. This play is from the 2012-2013 Wisconsin Green Bay season. See More
