The Cleveland Cavs ran this play in the 3rd quarter of Game 2 of the NBA Finals. Though they weren't successful in the execution, this play provides a few opportunities for open shots. After 4 receives the ball in the post, 2 sets a hammer screen for 3 cutting to the corner for the first option. If 4 sees this option open he can drive baseline to make the pass to 3. The secondary option is 5 setting the split screen for 1. In this play, the warriors switched the screen and 5 cut to the basket for a layup. See More

Villanova is known for being a very fundamentally sound basketball team. They do a tremendous job of valuing the ball (1.4 Asst./TO Ratio) and finish around the rim at a high percentage (66% avg. past 2 years). This is a drill that the men's basketball team does in practice throughout the year to work on getting open versus pressure, working on their triple threat (pivots, jabs), and finishing strong around the basket.

Cleveland ran this ATO action to get LeBron James a postup in Game 2 of the 2017 NBA Finals. As X5 drops down into the paint to help, X2 is shading towards X5 and X2 gaps between 2 & 3. 2 screens in for 3 to prevent X3 from recovering and closing out on the shooter. See More

In game 1 of the 2017 NBA Finals the Golden State Warriors ran double drag on back to back possessions. The first time Steph Curry came off of the double ball screen and got a wide open three pointer. The second time they ran it, the Caveliers switched the first ball screen and Kevin Durant rolled to the hoop. Curry passed back to Green (the 5) and dumped it into Durant in the post where he got fouled. See More

SLOB set ran by the U20 Serbian team in the Eurobasket Championships in 2015. Timing of the down screen set by 4 should be practiced for timing purposes. 4 should set down screen for 2 once 1 starts the cut up to 5 to receive the stationary DHO in the slot. The false action in this set creates a solid opportunity out of the spread pick and roll. The ball coverage of the ball screen (x2) will be weak and late due to the down screen set by 4 and also with the DHO by 1. As a result, this will put extra pressure on the defending big involved on the ball screen (x5) and should create an advantage out of the spread pick and roll. See More

In the 2017 NCAA Tournament, Middle Tennessee State ran my favorite BLOB play. The "Circle Action" begins with a DHO, followed by a Cross Screen, and ending with a screen-the-screener down screen. This set scored twice in Middle Tennessee State's first round win. See More

Kansas State ran this misdirection BLOB in the 2017 NCAA Tournament. On the catch, the 5 dribbles towards the weak side Flare Screen, while the 2 "rips" off of a baseline screen. This BLOB resulted in a wide open three pointer. See More

This is my favorite BLOB of the 2017 NBA season. It begins with a double stagger, to get a catch. After the catch, the Clippers throw to 5, to initiate a "Pistol" action. The 5 does a dribble hand-off, followed by a down screen, and run to the rim. The 1 can turn the corner, throw back to the shooter behind the drive, or look for the 5 on the lob. See More

This BLOB has resulted in multiple big shots for the Cleveland Cavs. They ran it for a Kyrie Irving three pointer, in the 2016 NBA Playoffs against Detroit. They also ran it, as an ATO, in the 2017 NBA Playoffs for a game clinching lay-up. The stack formation makes it especially difficult to guard, as the defense can not pre-switch any of the actions.
