Real Madrid Actions

"Movement kills defenses." Russell Westbrook recently praised the Real Madrid movement. 

Real Madrid varies cutting and screening to create open shots. Here are a few sets abstracted from Internet Real Madrid video. 


This starts with pick and pop action into dribble handoff. The baseline screen turns into 'stagger like action' with options for a perimeter shot or... 

a roll for 5...

Horns with an initial "rejected" pick-and-roll. Ball side downscreen and weak side screens get everyone potential involvement. 


Pick-and-roll into stagger off cross-screen and 5 downscreens. If 3 doesn't get the best perimeter shot, he may have a good look to 5 on the roll.
