Favorite Send to FastDrawHere is a box set that gives you a an opportunity to take advantage of a mis-match by going to an ISO for 1 on the weak side attacking off the flat ball screen or to throw back to 3 for a three point shot. This is an effective quick hitter to take advantage of various matchups or to get a quality shot quick in an end of clock situation. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThis may be the Miami Heat's most successful offensive set outside of the ball screen. They do a really great job of getting Lebron James a catch right in the middle of the floor. He can drive, shoot, or wait for the action on the weak side to take place. The action is a big screen by 5 (Chris Bosh) on 2 (Dwayne Wade) so all three of the Heat's big 3 are involved. When the 5 man backs off to protect on 2's cut the ball gets passed to Bosh for a shot. If the 2 doesn't help the ball goes to the back cut for Wade. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawHere is the most common BLOB ran by the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals vs the Miami Heat. They did a great job of getting #9 Tony Parker a mid range catch. After catching #21 Tim Duncan could come over and ball screen in a great screening area if Parker didn't have a shot. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawDown 3 last night at Detroit we diagramed this play in a timeout to free up our best 3 point shooter while giving our PG the chance to drive it 1 on 1 with the entire side of the floor cleared for him. It forced Detroit to overhelp, and led to a wide open 3-pointer which we hit to send the game into overtime. The 5 sprinting up and acting like he was going to set a screen before he set the second screen of the stagger was a great touch as Detroit "Downs" ball screens. The stagger was successful and our 2 was able to drive it to force Detroit to help even more before kicking it out. The extra passes led to a wide open jumper. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawWith Horns being such a popular set at all levels I thought I’d take a look at another action that UIC ran in their game at Milwaukee. They dribbled the point guard over to the wing and had him dribble off both 4 & 5 ball screens. Milwaukee tried to defend this in multiple ways which you will see in the video below. They tried to hedge it with the 5 man, and then they attempted to switch it. I thought this action was great to get your point guard off two ball screens, then get your 2 man coming off a screen the screener for a shot. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThis action is Milwaukee's favorite way to get the ball on the block to their 5 man. They can run this set out of transition or in a half court situation since the ball enters to a wing player thru a dribble handoff (DHO). Milwaukee has always had a 4 man that can shoot the ball, which makes the 4’s ball screen on the 2 man the first threat to this play. The 4 man pops to an empty side of the floor while the 1 cross screens for the 5 which occupies both defenders. If he can’t shoot the 3, he waits for 5 to come across the lane and throws it inside. It’s a fairly simple play to discuss, teach, & walk thru but difficult to defend especially if their 4 man is hitting shots. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawIn the first Final Four game between Michigan State and Duke the Blue Devils ran this set successfully four straight times for baskets. The action was very simple as the horns set had a big cross screen right into a ball screen. Michigan State couldn’t guard this set in the first half and it led to Duke building a lead they would never lose. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawPlay designed to create misdirection, then have best wing come off a triple screen with slipping bigs. Option to set ball screen on catch as well. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThe Davidson Wildcats use this BLOB play against 2-3 zone defenses. The entire outcome is based on a misdirection action. The two bigs set screens to get the shooter (inbounder) open. Then the action on the other side of the court occurs. A ball screen and baseline screen to either get a shot from the short corner or a seal inside. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThe Denver Nuggets used this play during the 2014/2015 NBA season. It's designed to give Kenneth Faried a chance to score within 15 feet distance to the basket. If he can't get open on the curl, than he sprints up to set a ball screen. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThis is a great set to run out of transition or dribble drive. 1 can pass the ball up to the wing or dribble handoff to 2. 4 trails directly in to set an on ball. This is hard to guard for x2 who is managing a dribble handoff, traffic from 1 and x1 and then an on ball screen from 4. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThere isn't anyone better than Gregg Popovich. The Spurs ran this sideline set in the first half Christmas day vs. OKC to get Tim Duncan a clean post entry. The ball screen at the top of the key is more to keep x4 out of the lane than to create action for 1. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawGreat horns set that is incredibly hard to defend, especially for X3 who has to defend a screen, DHO, and on ball screen. Play is designed to get 4/5 in a high low situation with shooters spacing the floor. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawDuke set they've been running since the Elton Brand, Shane Battier, Sheldon Williams, Jay Williams, JJ Redick days. Ran tonight vs. UNC. Look for lob after side is cleared out Then hi-lo action or a high ball screen looking to turn corner and draw defender. See More
