Basketball Play - Golden State Warriors - Stagger Option ATO

Golden State Warriors - Stagger Option ATO

Austin Anderson 05/22/2018

Golden State is one of the most efficient teams out of ATO sets. As a team, GSW scores .995 ppp (Points Per Possession) out of ATO situations. They are shooting 47.9% in ATOs and score at least 1 point 43.7% of the time. These numbers translate to a Top 5 ranking in ATO situations. Curry, Durant, and Thompson can occupy any of the perimeter spots. Durant can also shift to play the 4. Green can occupy 3-5. This set is designed to get elite scorers doing what they do best, moving without the ball. This set creates catch/shoot opportunities, pin/slip opportunities, and if teams fall asleep guarding the ball, GSW will take advantage of a sneak drive.

Basketball Play - Cleveland Cavaliers - Point Flares (vs switching)

Cleveland Cavaliers - Point Flares (vs switching)

Doug Brotherton 05/22/2018

In Games 1 and 2 of the 2018 Eastern Conference Finals, the Boston Celtics got a lot of credit for their smooth switches defensively. In games 3 and 4, the Cleveland Cavaliers countered with some basic actions to pick on the switching defense. Their most effective action was their "Point Flares," with LeBron James as the passer from the middle of the floor. The corner to wing flare allows the screener to seal and cut to the rim, for a pass over the top. This set gave the Celtics fits, resulting in multiple layups for Cleveland.
