To open the 4th quarter in their game against Oregon, the Indiana women's team ran this set to create an isolation off a flare screen for its best shooter. Simple misdirection and creation of an overload stretched the Ducks' defense, resulting in a small advantage gained and used. See More

With 6:25 left in their round of 32 matchup with Indiana, Oregon ran this quick hitter out of a box SLOB set to get Sabrina Ionescu a wide open 3. Note the counter to the switch on the down screen would create an automatic slip & high low with the guard at the top and the post player setting the screen.

Love this set. I am a huge fan of getting skilled bigs at the top of the key with the ball and space. The misdirection to begin softens the defense up and then there are countless possibilities you can finish this set with. I love the natural push of the drive off of the weave and Chicago action handoff into the flare on the weak side. That flare can be easily mis-guarded and result in a slip and a wide open layup for the screener. I love the built in throw-back, or "shake" action with the ball screen, roll, and corner lift as well. A lot of bang for your buck with this one. See More

This is a great quick action to get you a great look going downhill off a 1-4 flat set. This will get 1's defender turned around just enough to struggle with 5's ball screen especially if he arrives alone. See More

This set involves a great amount of false motion that can easily be used to create scoring opportunities if you look to exploit any missteps. Have your players not rush the backdoor cuts especially on the weak side opposite of the big as this is a viable scoring cut. If there are any miscues on the handoffs the ball handler can easily fake the handoff and have a wide open lane to the rim. There are lot of great counters you could run out of this such as turn the last backdoor cut into a smash cut or even cross screen for a throwback post feed. See More

This is a great set you can run for a stretch big man who can step out and shoot the three. Have your wing look to slip to the rim if he doesn't see a body between him and the rim. See More

This is a great set lifting the 5 up to the nail. 1 is potentially open off the lob on the initial cut. 5 pops off of 1's back cut where his man must tag 1 or he will be open. 5 goes straight into a Rugby action as we call it (dribble handoff with a player inside in the 3pt line looping out and around 5 on the handoff). A counter or wrinkle to this set would be 5 faking the handoff and keeping it himself on the drive. See More

This is a good set from the Florida Gators utilizing the pressure of a hard cut off a backscreen into a Chicago action (downscreen into a handoff) which creates multiple decision situations for the defense. Here Michigan stays hugged up on the perimeter shooters of Florida and creates an easy deep post entry pass. See More

Wofford runs a lot of action before getting to the main action. Their best shooter is the ball screener so this makes it difficult to help off of. The down screen during the pistol action occupies the weak side defense. Blog Post: Mid-Major Teams Poised to Make Noise See More
