Cleveland Cavaliers - Zipper Empty
05/03/2016Great set to get the ball inside. This play completely clears out the weak side and the fade screen up top occupies potential weak side help. This is great action if the defense is fronting the post, as it gives a clear opportunity to throw the ball over the top of the post defender. See More

LA Clippers - Post Decoy Stagger
05/03/2016This set play gets the ball in the post first. The Clippers do a great job setting this up. When Redick first comes off of Jordan’s screen he acts as if he is going to screen for Paul, but cuts at the last second. This misdirection sets it up for him to come right back around off of the stagger screens. See More

Dallas Mavericks - Option
05/03/2016This action is great for teams with a scorer. Most teams are familiar enough with scouting reports to know where each player (especially the better players) is going to be coming off of screens. However, this action will force the defense to have to worry about going two different directions. By faking one way and going another, this can throw the defense off just enough to get your best player a clean look at the basket. See More

Detroit Pistons - Post Hammer
05/03/2016The Pistons ran this set out of a timeout. This set is effective for many reasons. First, they get the ball into the post which means everyone on the defense has to be ready to rotate to help prevent an easy basket. Next, the split screen up top on the strong side grabs X2’s attention because he has to be ready to stunt at 1 if X1 is late on the recovery/X1 and X4 do not switch. All of this action (the post up/split screen) sets the defense up for what Detroit really wants to get here—the hammer screen. Well-designed play with many options, including 5 on a slip. See More

Cleveland Cavaliers - "Quick Get"
04/26/2016This set puts your point guard in a position to make a play off the catch. The quick rub screen forces X1 to have to help on 5 to prevent the layup, which then makes him late recovering to 1 on the ballscreen. If you are able to get a layup for the 5 man the first time you run it, that will set up the ballscreen even more for the second time you go to it. See More

Washington Wizards - Shuffle/Stagger Spain
04/26/2016To make this as effective as possible have your best shooter set the backscreen for the 5 man. This puts his defender in a very difficult position as he has a split second to decide if he is going to stop the ball, stop the roll, or just worry about preventing the best three-point shooter from getting an open shot. It is also effective because it brings three defenders to the main action in the middle of the floor, thus eliminating another help defender just standing there waiting to rotate. See More

Dallas Mavericks - "Dallas Action"
04/26/2016This set provides that opportunity because as 1 is catching the ball, the 5 man is setting a ballscreen immediately on X1, giving 1 a chance to attack in a straight line drive right off the catch. Also, this can be an effective play against a team that will blitz/hard hedge the side ballscreen, as 2 can hit 1 quickly off the screen and 1 will have plenty of time to throw the lob to 4 rolling to the basket before the defense recovers.

Boston Celtics - "Flip Step"
04/26/2016This is an effective set because it flips the ball right back to the point guard who can then attack the ballscreen off the catch. X5 has to help on a downscreen and then turn around and quickly help on a ballscreen. See More

Fist Up Short vs. Blitz / Hedge (Canada)
04/26/2016This is a very effective play against a team that will blitz/hedge out on the middle ballscreen. The ball-handler is not looking to beat his man off the screen, but instead is looking to hit the bottom big as quickly as possible. The ballscreener is looking to set the screen and then roll quickly to the basket to receive the big to big pass before his man can recover. Make sure one of your better passers is making the big to big pass. See More

Toronto Raptors - BLOB Double Rip
04/19/2016Innovative BLOB set by the Raptors. Most teams that run a double rip set usually run it for a bigger player. The Raptors run it here for a point guard. This can be a great action for teams who have bigger guards or who are looking to take advantage of a mismatch in the post. The Raptors have their 5 man set the first screen which is not an easy action to guard as majority of teams do not switch 1-5 and X1 has to fight over two screens. See More

Cleveland Cavaliers - SLOB Double Rip STS
04/19/2016The Cavs ran this out of a timeout with LeBron James at the 4 and Kevin Love at the 5. The Pistons switched the 4/5 screen, but X1 did not switch off the downscreen quick enough to get to Love. He missed the shot here, but got a clean look. This can be a great ATO SLOB action for smaller teams/team with a big who can shoot. See More

Charlotte Hornets - SLOB Fade Handoff Rescreen
04/19/2016Another well designed SLOB from the Hornets. This play is effective because it has many options that the defense has to worry about. By having Jefferson catch the ball outside the three-point line, Batum has plenty of room to take the handoff and go all the way to the rim. By having so much action going on, no defender is just standing around waiting to help – everyone has to worry about their man. See More

Charlotte Hornets - SLOB Double Ballscreen Stagger
04/19/2016One of the Hornets favorite sets in the half court can be just as effective as a SLOB. The Hornets set it up by making Batum’s defender fight through false action zipper screens, and then come right back and make him fight through stagger screens. Batum scores here but the play has many options. Your point guard can take it to the rim right away off the ballscreens. If you have a big man who can shoot, have him pop after the stagger screen because if his man switches or overhelps, he could be wide open for a three-pointer. See More
