The newest common NBA set this season has been the Spain pick-and-roll, where a shooter is stationed at the nail hole. That shooter sets a back screen for a big man that goes to set a high ball screen. See More

Great alley-oop counter for the Rockets to get their big man a lob to the rim. False action before hand sets up the Mike D'Antoni action. See More

A unique way to combine two of Mike D'Antoni's most common sets. First is a staggered screen out of their Point series, which is curled. It leads into a Spain pick-and-roll, a unique set that D'Antoni loves to run. See More

The Grizzlies ran a great ATO out of a sideline out bounds play with two options that led to a Marc Gasol three. The first option is a lob for the guard coming off a back screen and the second is the screener receiving a screen to get them open for a three. See More

The Cleveland Cavs were up 5 with 30.9 seconds left and ran this play to help seal the win against the Indiana Pacers. This play was very difficult to guard because of all the offensive threats that were on the floor for the Cavs. The inital action forced the Pacers to defend the staggered screen so as not to give up an open 3 to a shooter (Kyle Korver). The secondary action used the Cavs two best players with 4 (Lebron James) setting a back screen for 1 (Kyrie Irving). x4 has a difficult choice to make. Helping on the backscreen might take away the layup but it would also get 4 an open shot. x4 stayed with his man and 1 got a wide open layup on the play. See More

Brad Stevens ran this ATO set in the first half of Game 1, against the Chicago Bulls. It resulted in back-to-back baskets for the Celtics. The first basket was a lob. On the second basket, the Celtics ran the set all the way through. The key to the set is that the Celtics used their best shooter to set the back screen, which eliminated the Bulls' ability to help. More coaches should use their best shooters as a screener, when their team is in need of an easy basket. Great design by Coach Stevens! See More

The Boston Celtics ran this ATO in their playoff opener against the Chicago Bulls to get an easy basket at the rim. The dribble handoff and ball reversal actions are used to clear a side of the floor for the lob and get the defense to focus on stopping 1. In order to take the lob away x1 needs to drop and protect the rim, but he would run the risk of 1 getting open for a shot. The Celtics run a similiar action to this play where 1 is the primary option and will get the ball back on a handoff from 4. In this play x1 is focused on stopping 1 and doesn't provide help on the back screen. This gets 3 a wide open look on the lob. See More

3 (Gordon Hayward) is denied the ball, so 5 pops out for an elbow catch from 1. 2 (Rodney Hood) setting backscreen for 4 forces X2 to help on the backcut allowing 2 to sprint into a DHO with 5 for an open shot. See More

The San Antonio Spurs have some great passing big men this season -- David Lee, Pau Gasol. Popovich gets the ball into their hands at the free throw line and lets cutters and screeners move around them. Screening and cutting is dependent on personnel and what spot they are in -- usually they are trying to get the ball to Kawhi Leonard. See More

A staple of the Popovich playbook, the Hawk action is code for a side ballscreen occuring at the same time as a double stagger on the opposite side. It's a ballscreen that occupies help. In recent years the Spurs have run it with Kawhi Leonard as the ball screener, hoping he can pick-and-pop and isolate off of it. See More

Common set from Gregg Popovich to get an easy basket for his big man in the post. The Spurs run this frequently out of timeouts as a counter to their Philly (AI/ Iverson) sets See More
