About This Play/Drill

I really loved this action used by the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals against the Miami Heat.  They look for the quick curl for the 2 man, get a shuffle screen, then a stagger, then a ball screen.  This play is packed with multiple actions for the defense to guard and puts a lot of pressure on the man defending the 5 man.

  • 1 passes the ball ahead to 4 and then cuts to the ball side corner. 5 sets a pin down screen for 2, who takes his man in and curls it. 5 then pops back to the perimeter for the next pass. 3 clears out to the opposite wing.

  • 4 reverses the ball to 5 and then runs off the back screen from 2 cutting to the strong side block.

  • 5 passes to 3. 2 and 5 go set a stagger screen for 1 in the corner. 1 sprints off the screen and looks for pass from 3.

  • 3 reverses to 1 as 4 spaces to the corner.

  • After catching the ball off 5's stagger screen if 1 can't attack 5 immediatly sets a ball screen for him. 1 attacks and 5 rolls.
