About This Play/Drill

This is a set that is very effective when you have a 4 man with the ability to post up and play with his back to the basket. We've had the most success with this play when we run it all the way through, getting to the screen-the-screener action. If 4 initially posts-up aggressive after he downscreen for 3, he'll be more open when 1 will screen for him.
