About This Play/Drill

The turning point of our game on Wednesday Vs. Green Bay was when Green Bay went to their 3-2 zone defense.  This is their defense they go to when they need to change momentum or they are on the ropes.  Unfortunately for us down the stretch it did just that and they were able to come back and win the game.  They attempted to go to it earlier in the second half and we had a set play ready for it.  We executed it really well and got an open 3-pointer for our best shooter.  Because of our preparation and execution we were able to pull them out of the 3-2 early in the second half.  The play design gave our PG a screen forcing the corner guy of the zone to rotate up and play the ball.  That then forced Green Bay's center to sprint out to the corner to guard our best shooter.  We created a mis-match.
