This play also takes advantage of a team that is going to front the post. The Suns ran this play the past few seasons. Houston runs it here and gets exactly what they want. The curl helps occupy the defense’s attention, giving enough time for 5 to spin and catch the lob before his defender can recover.
- 5 screens 4.
- 2 curls off 5.
- 4 passes to 5 for lob.
NOTE: Great option vs. an X5 front as 5 can spin off for lob.
Houston Rockets - "Pinch Curl Lob"

Great set especially if X5 is going to front. Big fan of high/low actions. pic.twitter.com/ACE9Ho0Nb1
