Houston Cougars - Smash Pitch Hammer - FastModel Sports
Published 08/22/2019 Favorite Send to FastDraw Email Print EmbedAbout This Play/Drill
Great set with great pace, timing, and spacing by the Houston Cougars. A critical element is the PG's pace exploding into the pitchback from 4 at the elbow. This could easily be scored for a layup if open, or kept by 4 if well guarded and could still be run from there. See video in tweet below.
- 4 will fake the "smash" screen with 5 and sprint to the opposite elbow. 2 will drop corner and then block during 4's cut.
- 1 will hit 4 and sprint off of him for a pinch post handoff. 2 will be sprinting up the gut while 1 is rounding 4
- 5 will headhunt 3's defender and if switched should seal the smaller defender in front of the rim for a dumpoff
- 1 if open can drift out of bounds to hit 3 on the drift pass. I have 4 filling behind in case 1 see's traffic he can reverse pivot and hit 4 for a safety valve 3pt.
