Adventures in SLOB Design

Scoring off special situations can change momentum and games. Deploy your personnel to optimize your passes and shots. 



Having the 5 as the inbounder gives another option for throwing over defenders. Entering low also allows passing around the inbounds defender. 4 continues through to set up the backscreen (screen the screener) which creates a mismatch or maybe a layup (away and back action). 



Cross screen into elevator screen. Simple. Can we make a shot? 


Screening the middle of zones can be an effective strategy. Relocating the 2 draws x3 to the ball. It's about space and time to set the trap in the middle.
