Even in defeat, lessons emerge. The Celtics ran this "UCLA cut" action against the Wizards, getting a layup for Jae Crowder (4) off the slip. The defense got preoccupied with the backscreen (Isaiah Thomas not a huge lob threat), and Crowder got rewarded.
This is pure nastiness from the Spurs on an ATO. Left, pass to the top of the key. 3 (Leonard) cuts to the corner and Parker (1) goes through. The ball is entered to the 4 and 5 screens 2 in scissors-like action. Ginobili (2) then has a basket attack or drive and dish to Leonard as x3 helps.
The Spurs use a simple DHO into a pick-and-roll (left) setting a weak side back screen as Parker (1) comes off the PnR.
