Diamond set into side ball screen Spain PNR from BCZK. Succesfully running Side Spain PNRs the entire season, this play was deadly for Zalgiris because of the Swing action which forces all five defenders be active in defense the whole 24 seconds of the shot clock.

Interesting variation of Spain PNR from BCZK. In this set, 5 (rather than a shooter like in classic Spain action) sets the back screen for 4. If 5 sets a good screen, it allows BCZK to throw a lob to its best alley oop threat in forward Aaron White (4 in diagrams, #30 in video). Blog Breakdown: Zalgiris Kaunas - Spain PNR Series See More

This set looks like a classic Spain PNR in stack position, but this set starts from Horns formation. And now the defense cannot switch between smalls, as is common with many European teams to defend Spain PNR (when x3 takes 1 driving, and x1 takes 3 popping to 3pt line). Here x3 must guard 5 at elbow and cannot help on 1 driving to the basket. Blog Breakdown: Zalgiris Kaunas - Spain PNR Series See More

An interesting counter to BCZK's original Iverson Guard Post Series. In this set, instead of receiving the ball in the post, 1 uses 2's pindown screen right into a DHO with 5. This action is extremely difficult for x1 to defend and puts pressure on the entire defense to help out, opening up several options. Blog Breakdown: Zalgiris Kaunas - Iverson Series See More

Here's a creative way to run Spain PNR by adding it after a Logo PNR. BCZK doesn't run this often, but it's a nice counter to their original set which posts 1 at the block. They usually score with this progression. Blog Breakdown: Zalgiris Kaunas - Iverson Series See More

A quick hitter in early offense from Head Coach of New Orleans Pelicans Alvin Gentry. Often run for Anthony Davis to get a mid post touch early in the shot clock, where he can create his own shot or find others if a double team comes. See More

Toronto Raptors set vs Washington Wizards in 2018 NBA Playoffs. Play is designed to get DeMar DeRozan downhill on the weak side off the court. Play starts with 4 and 5 setting singles to get the 3 and 2 (DeRozan) open. 1 performs DHO with 3 and the ball is swung to 2 coming off a single down screen. 5 runs into a high step up ball screen. 2 has one side of the court to attack downhill and read the defense for drive, drop off or kickout.

Toronto Raptors double drag option play. "77" is their call for double drag. "Quick" is the term for single away. 4 and 5 set the double drag. 4 cuts strong side. 5 runs into a single away. The right read on this play was to slip, which Jakob Poeltl did for a lob. See More
