Earlier today I posted an action from the New York Knicks that involved a horns staggered pick & roll. Later in this game they ran this similar play but Carmelo decided to keep the ball and use the pick & roll himself. See More

With this set your 2 has to be your best scorer so the defense will over play him. Your 4 man has to be a passing big, that can make the bounce pass from the high post to the backdoor cutter. This play is from the 2010-2011 Houston Rockets season. See More

A play the Milwaukee Bucks beat the Cavs with on Friday night. The Bucks were down 1 with .7 seconds and got a great look. 1 set a good screen for the 4 man to the basket (which the cavs missed the switch) and then 5 does a great job of headhunting and setting a screen for the 1 to the top of the key.

The Wildcats have a number of sets which they run very effectively to get open shots for their players in spots on the floor where they can do the most damage. This is an easy play to install at any level whereby the use of the double stagger screening action free's up either your 1 or 2 man for an open shot or gives you the opportunity to dump the ball into your 5 man. Sean Miller is a very good recruiter, but often does get enough credit for his tactician abilities. See More

This basketball out of bounds play is going to be run out of the box set. That means that you are going to have a player on each block and each elbow. To make this basketball play work you have to set a good diagonal screen. That way the defense either has to help on the screen and give up a shot on the flare screen or give up a layup. The player passing the ball in should look for the player coming off the diagonal screen, then the shooter off the flare screen, and then the big man opening up after he sets the flare screen. Must set good screens for this play to work. This play is from the 2011-2012 Gadsden State season See More

Oklahoma State uses this backscreen continuity offense. It has flex elements and screen-the-screener action. They use a great shooter (Phil Forte) to set backscreens. See More

This is a great set, run in variations by numerous NBA Teams, if you are looking to exploid an overly agressive defense with multiple ball-screen/dribble hand-off actions within a short amount of time. It is set up by a "zipper" action and features scoring options for all 5 players on the court. This has been our go-to play last season, as it allows you to get multiple chances a high percentage shot off of movement, while being very simplistic and easy to install. See More

Down four to the #2 ranked Kansas Jayhawks on the road in the Phog with just over four minutes left, Oklahoma State head coach Travis Ford called a play for his 5'11" (and that is generous) freshman point guard that was previously 0-for-6 from deep to get a three-point look. Naturally. The Cowboys put the Freshman point guard in a number of screen situations, with the end result being a three-pointer that Forte nailed to bring the Cowboys within one. It was this shot by Forte that sprung OSU's run down the stretch, resulting in one of the rarest things in college sports: A Jayhawks loss in Phog Allen Fieldhouse. And it was all thanks to some great play design, patience and execution by the Cowboys in a very tough environment. See More

As 4 cross/back-screened 5 (Young), the defense fought to take away the post-up from the Gators' dominant big man, this allowed 4 to seal and duck-in easier.
