This is a great set out of the Michigan Two Guard offense that could result in a wide open layup, a guard post up (Marcus Smart mismatch action), or a screen-the-screener 3pt point look. Final Four Breakdown: Michigan Wolverines - Find, Use, Create Philosophy See More

Don't be fooled but the lack of "success" of these set plays in the video clip below. The coaching staffs in post-season play are so well scouted and the teams are elite in preperation that oftentimes the desired shot is not available. Nonetheles, the analytics surrounding side changes and paint touches remains true, as they break the defense down with each action. This set presents several shot opportunities, and the spacing is so phenoenal that however the defense plays it, there will be scoring options with the advantage created. See More

Buffalo ran this action in its NCAA Tournament win vs Arizona. The Bulls added a little twist to the traditional back screen, ball screen action by using a PG to back screen for 4. This gives the lob an option and makes a bigger defender cover more ground. It also flows right into roll and replace action. NCAA Tournament - XsOs Behind the Upsets See More

The Toronto Raptors have revitalized their offense in the 2017-18 season, but not without keeping some old favourite set plays from previous seasons. This play is a repurposed crunch-time special, as it use to be a staple of close games in the 4th quarter more than 5 years ago. Over the years, this set's usage has ebbed and flowed. This year, the Raptors are using it outside of a late-game setting and are introducing it into their After Timeout specials. See More

"Smash" is a set to run vs a Match-up Zone Defense. The key to this play is to make bottom defender of zone commit to either the dribble or wing shooter coming to the corner. The goal is to seal off the middle of the zone and bring the other post player low for a layup. Blog Post: Keys to Attacking a Match-up Zone See More

John Beilein's Two Guard offense is full of beautiful action and full of endless possibilities. You really need a dynamic 5 man who can shoot and force the defense to spread. This is a simple misdirection action to create a double driving gap. We are using this more and more since the way the game is officiated, and the rules are designed guarding the ball one on one with space for them to create is one of the hardest things to do defensively. If you are interested in learning more of the Two Guard offense, and getting a TON of quick hitters out of it I recommend Tom Jicha's dvd from Championship Productions. Ironically, I have never watched Beilein himself teach this, but we play several teams that run this offense and when run correctly with a big that can stretch the floor you are in for a long night defensively.
