Favorite Send to FastDrawNotre Dame used this play in the second half against UNC. They run their down screen motion to a two man game on the left side. On the pick and roll, the point guard throws it up for a lob. See More

Favorite Send to FastDrawGonzaga likes to use this play a lot to get a pick and roll at the top of the key. The Bulldogs used this in both games to start the NCAA Tournament. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawIn this play, Duke utilizes a pick and roll set to their advantage to get post position inside. The ballhandler passes out and then they look right inside for a potential hi/lo. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawSyracuse started the game against Dayton with this play. In typical pick and roll coverage, x2 is responsible for nail/FT line coverage to prevent a drive by the ballhandler. This makes x2 susceptible to a flare screen, which Syracuse was able to use to start the game with a good 3pt look. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawUNCW ran Loop action several times against Duke in the 1st half, and this was one play I particularly liked. After two runs off the stagger and receives the ball, 5 cross screens 4 into a side pick and roll. The 4 slips early to the corner for a look at a 3pt shot. This puts a lot of pressure on x4 defensively, but in this particular case, Duke's Ingram just had so much length that he was able to closeout in time to prevent the 3pt shot. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawNorthern Kentucky ran a really good flare set vs a 2-3 zone that allowed for an open look at the basket. After reversing the ball, 4 & 5 step outside the paint and screen the top 2 men of the zone. This allows the off ball guard to catch and attack quickly, almost like a quick hitting pick and roll action. See More

Favorite Send to FastDrawAs a University of Kentucky fan I have been able to watch Billy Donovan several times a year since I was a kid. It's still burned into my mind excellent post players such as David Lee, Jo Noah, and Al Horford dominating my beloved Cats on the block. Although, those are certainly not the only posts that have excelled in his system. This is one of my personal favorites of Coach Donovan and I look forward to seeing how well it works for Kevin Durant. This play is great for multiple reasons. The first, it is a natural counter to a normal secondary break action for the Gators, a spread pick and roll. The guard rejects the screen to drive baseline. The 3 man (normally for Coach Donovan is an excellent 3pt shooter) is spaced in the corner. The key to this play, is freeing up a stretch 4 for an open look. After dishing and spacing, the 1 man leads the stagger for the 4 while the 5 man completes the stagger. What happens if there is a big to big switch? This all depends on your personnel. Let's apply this to Coach Donovan's new team, the Oklahoma City Thunder. If this play is ran for Durant at the 4, the options for the defense aren't pretty. If the screen is gapped, you run the risk of Durant having a wide open look. If you switch, you risk having a center guarding arguably thefts scorer in the league. Again, you don't have KD on your squad and I know I don't. But perhaps this can get you an isolated mismatch. Questions/comments/concerns? Message me on twitter @jacobcollins34 See More
