About This Play/Drill

The play starts by the point guard passing a guard on the right-wing.  The guarded player then goes to opposite elbow area while a pass to the corner is designed to bring the bottom player of the zone out away from the block.  After passing to the corner the guard cuts hard looking for a quick give and go and one the point guards catch screens the weak side of the zone bringing the 4 man right into the gut of the zone for a quick pass.  After setting a screen the guard will then receive a screen by the post player creating some misdirection and difficulty for the defense.
