About This Play/Drill

NBA TV recently showed on their "Hardwood Classics" the 2003 NBA Finals between the San Antonio Spurs and the New Jersey Nets.  In Game 6 late in the 2nd Quarter, the Spurs ran this quick hitter to get a pick and roll action with Tim Duncan and David Robinson.  Duncan was able to hit Robinson rolling to the rim for a dunk.

  • 5 walks down the lane as 1 enters the ball to 4 at the elbow. 1 then gets offset to the wing.

  • As 4 receives the pass, he will immediately recieve a ball screen from 5. 5 screens and rolls to the rim.

     

    1st Option: 4 passes to 5 rolling to the rim (after setting the ball screen for 4).

  • 2nd Option: If the pass to 5 is not available, 4 continues to penetrate and looks to make a play.

     

    3rd Option: If 3's defender helps into the paint to cover the pick and roll action or 4 penetration, 4 can then kick out to 3 in the corner for the open shot.
