Celtics Pitch Flex Lob - FastModel Sports

About This Play/Drill

Brad Stevens uses Isaiah Thomas as a screener frequently because of the extra attention the Celtics' top scorer receives. A common screen-the-screener action is the Flex set up, where Thomas would come off a down screen after setting the Flex. Instead, he sets a back screen here after the flex, with the rim unguarded on the flex overload for an easy alley oop opportunity.

  • 4 (Johnson) dribbles to the wing, while 1 (Thomas) loops around the nail hole and 5 (Olynyk). 5 pops out and gets the pass from 4. 1 sets the flex for 3 (Jerebko).

  • Instead of a down screen, 1 (Thomas) sets a back screen on the empty side for 4 (Johnson)
