Boston Celtics - Pindown 4 Iso

Matt Wheeler 05/22/2018

The Boston Celtics were struggling to get a basket early in game 3 against the Cleveland Cavaliers so they ran this play to get Al Horford (4) isolated in a one-on-one situation at the free throw line. As 5 screens for 4, 3 cuts to the ball side corner and 2 cuts to the opposite corner. This clears the right side of the floor for 4 to drive to the basket. The Celtics put a good shooter in Jayson Tatum (2) in the opposite corner, keeping x2 from helping on the drive. FMS Blog: Boston Celtics - Spread Offense See More

Quick hitter from the Celtics playbook. A drag screen during the secondary break takes place while a cross screen for the post occurs under the rim. Afterwards the drag screener will pindown for the cross screener to get a shot from 3. It's important for the weak side corner to be filled to prevent help on the down screen. If there isn't a shot, 3 receives a ball screen from 5 to attack with the floor spread. FMS Blog: Boston Celtics - Keeping it Simple with Spread Offense See More
