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

Tennesse went to this series late in the game against Iowa in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Anytime a player can screen before receiving a screen it makes it much more difficult to defend. This set gets Admiral Schofield an open 3 point look. See More

This is an interesting set by the Hawks. Definitely takes advantage of having 4 players that on the floor that can shoot. Allows Kevin Huerter (2) and Dewayne Dedmon (5) to operate in a pick and roll with adequate spacing all around. What I like about this is the timing involved. When Dedmon recognized Huerter had his man beat, he waited a about a quarter of a second to roll so that Huerter could have an opportunity at clean look at rim, while still being there as a trailer should the defense overhelp. This is a lot harder to run if your team does not have 4 players that are threats to shoot, because there is less spacing if they are able to gap the 4, making it more difficult to get to the rim, even if the ball handler beats his man!
