Favorite Send to FastDrawHere is another common NBA set that Robert Morris ran in the 2nd half against North Florida. Out of a Horns look, Robert Morris ran this Elbow strongside split action where 3 curled on the pin down and 1 bumped back to receive a DHO from the 5 man. A good screen from the 1 man set up a great double pin down by 4 and 2, which took out x3 and resulted in a wide open 3 pointer. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawAnother look out of the Horns set is a Zipper option. While Zipper is always a great look for a wide pindown for a shooter, it can also set 2-man game action and give two of your best offensive weapons the opportunity the freelance and play off of each other. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThe last Elbow look out of a Horns set, the Point can middle cut and go strong or weak to initiate Flex action. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawMuch like Elbow Strong Action, in Elbow Weak the Point goes opposite of the elbow entry and plays split action on the weakside. The Point and the big can set a stagger screen for the wing, or the wing can curl the stagger and the Point receives a pin down. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThis is another option out of a Horns look. Entering the ball at the elbow initiates "Elbow" pinch post action. In this example, the ballhandler goes to the strong side, initiating Elbow Strong, or strong side split action. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawHere is a nice little secondary break action that gives you a isolation in the post as well as bringing a shooter off a double screen for a 3. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThis is another play Billy Donovan ran last night in their victory over South Carolina. While the emphasis of this play is to get 3 a shot via the elevator screen, there is also an inside opportunity as well. By placing Finney-Smith at the 3, this game the Gators a bigger target inside off the initial pin-down action. Furthermore, with so much attention at the FT-line area, this is also a great opportunity for 1 to ball fake and drive baseline to the rim with the only help defender being X2. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThis is a good play for teams with big guards who have an advantage in post up situations. The objective of this play is to clear out a side and allow the guard to post up while still having other valuable options if that is taken away. This is a great play that can be run after time outs, if you need a quick 2 or a 3 for a good shooter. Ideally this is a play with a perimeter oriented 4 man, big guards who can post up and good 3pt shooters. Bigs set up in down screen action with guards low. 1 initiates the offense by picking a side to take the basketball. Guards will come off opposite the side the basketball is taken. Ball side big will then turn and set a back screen on other bigs man. First guard will curl to the block and 2nd guard will curl to the top looking for a 3. 4 pops and 5 ducks in looking for a post up. It forces the defense to make quick decisions and be in the right help defensive positions. Bigs line up in down screen action. 1 picks a side to take the ball. Guards come off screen opposite the basketball. 1st look: 2 posting up on the empty block 2nd look: 3 coming off screen for 3pt shot 3rd look: 1 hits 3 , 3 hits 4, 4 gets a shot 4th look: 1 hits 3, 3 hits 4, 4 hits 5 in the post. 4 is popping as soon as 3 curls to the top 5 is ducking in for a post up See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawIn Game 2 of the 2014 NBA Final, LeBron James went on a scoring streak in the 2nd half and became unguardable. The Spurs did a very good job guarding him, he was just unconscious. If you watch the Heat you know that Erik Spoelstra loves running elbow actions that usually go into a flex or some kind of hand-off with a weak side pin-down. However, on this set he got the ball to the hot hand, LeBron, by running the double curl action. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawIn Game 2 of the 2014 NBA Finals the Miami Heat ran this play to get Wade an iso post lifted off the block. It seemed the defense knew this was coming but was still unable to stop the post feed as Wade had a smaller defender on him at the time. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThis 1 on 1 drill was used at the Robert Morris MBB Elite Camp (June 21st, 2008) by Mike Rice and Andy Toole. It is a great drill to put pressure on the offensive player by making them constantly attack the rim. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawIn an effort to spark their sluggish start to Game of the 2014 EC-Finals, the Miami Heat ran this quick hitter for Ray Allen (2). See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawWisconsin ran this set to get Ben Brust a 3pt look. This play is set up by great screens from the Point Guard and the Center. Brust does a great job setting up his defender to get room for a 3pt shot. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawIowa State ran this quick hitter in their NCAA Tournament win against North Carolina. Iowa State starts out in an elbow set, the point guard DeAndre Kane passes to the 4 (Melvin Ejim) on the elbow. After making the pass, Kane goes with the 5 to set a double screen for the 2 (Matt Thomas) in the corner. Thomas goes into handoff with Ejim at the elbow and looks to shoot 3pt shot. See More
