Opening play of Boston's game 5 victory of NY. C's looked to get the ball inside to Green isolated. The ball screen paired with the wide pin down forces the defense to make choices. KG set a great screen and Chandler was protecting the basket because of the ball screen. Pierce was left with a wide open 3 point attempt. See More

The Miami Heat ran this set Wednesday night in Game 2 and they also ran it this evening in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals versus the Chicago Bulls. The Bulls being one of the most defensive minded teams in the league, I was surprised they got caught on this same play a second time. As the defense quickly showed on the 3->4 screen, Lebron does a very good job with his footwork creating position on the block for an easy angle to post-up. See More

The Miami Heat ran this play to start Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals versus the Chicago Bulls. It seems to be a theme lately that coaches are doing a fantastic job of either screening players into picks OR setting screening which puts the defense in a bind and using the initial screener as a picker. The Miami Heat did an excellent job with this play because the Bulls had to respect the fact that Wade and Lebron both came off screens. This allowed Bosh to quickly step out for the pick & roll in which the defense was a tad late helping. See More

Isolate your best shooter or driver with this screen the screener action. This is an interesting play because a lot of times the stagger comes on the weak side. This time the stagger is on the strong side, leaving a side of the floor isolated for a drive. This play can be run either to the right or the left. Make sure to practice the footwork of how you want your player to turn after the catch. See More

Legendary Wisconsin coach Dick Bennett recently shared this late shot clock play at the HoopsU Coaching Academy in Minneapolis. Instead of the standard high flat on ball screen, Coach Bennett ran this play to get his 2 man open to make a play. After the initial cut many options are available. 3 can cut after screening, 5 can screen and post, and 4 could set quick run out on ball screen for 1. This is a super alternative to the late game sets usually run in this situation. See More

The New York Knicks ran this play in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals versus the Indiana Pacers. Some coaches are not big fans of running guard on guard ballscreens because they are easy to switch. But by screening Kidd into the pick it forces the defense to make one of two decisions: 1. Switch and the defense ends up with a big helping on the pick & pop. 2. If the defense doesn't switch the guard is late to help on the pick & pop and could result in JR Smith pulling up for a jumper. Furthermore, the Knicks put Carmelo Anthony (4) spaced in the opposite corner. This is an excellent strategy as well because his defense is probably told not to help off too much of their leading scorer. See More

A set that has multiple ways to score. This set is great for a 4 man that can shoot it. The 5 man has to set a quick screen for the 4 to leak out. The play is then finished with a roll/replace action. See More
