The offensive player tries to get the inside leg on top of the defender to gain position. Then sprint to the wing or operational area# It is almost like posting up on the block and then racing to the spot where the offense wants to receive the ball. Offensive player must get their leg that is closest to the passer on top of the defenders leg to get the proper position. On the left wing-left leg and on the right wing-right leg.

The second way a offensive player can get open vs# a tough defender is to work behind the defender. The offensive player will move towards the defenders back then sprint around them to the spot on the floor where they want to receive the basketball.

The third way to get open is to allow the defender to stay with the offensive player out to the spot where they want to receive the ball. Once at that spot take a few steps back to the original postion and then spin into the defenders body. After making contact with the defenders body move quickly to the spot where the offensive player wants to receive the basketball.For this move, as player goes back to the basket it is best to use leg closest to passer to get open.

Heading back to the basket in the diagram the offensive player will step with the right foot into the defenders body. After making the step it is a quick pivot to get open. This gives the player more room to pivot and a better angle for the passer to deliver the ball.
