Control what you can control. Coaches like Xs and Os. And that's sensible because "perception" says that a clever quick hitter might make a difference.
"Horns" has no natural help side and the spacing clears out the lane and flattens the defense with filled corners.
Sequential ball screens with screen the screener backside action. Other options could show, back cut for 2, roll for 5, depending on defensive coverage.
"Nurse." Because UCONN ran this simple backscreen for Kia Nurse.
Elevator 3 option, ball screen option.
DHO/wing attack with help side down screen (occupy the defense)
Handback into backscreen or slip
Celtics "Star" read - cut, pop, handoff PnR
Fake pindown slip.
Double stagger pindowns. SVG opined that although NBA players can run plays drawn up during a timeout, his sense was that prior practice led to higher percentage.
Lagniappe: more teaching clips, here are two Eastern Massachusetts top teams, Bishop Fenwick (white) and Bishop Feehan (dark). Fenwick won 70-66, dismissing Feehan (8-1) from the undefeated ranks.
Skilled offensive players create defensive decisions. Off penetration, the corner defender helps and this costs a long closeout leading to an open 3. This happened multiple times, as every 'choice' has a risk-benefit ratio.
"The Lord giveth and...taketh away." This time Feehan helps UP (not across) on the PnR and gets burned for a layup.
6'1" sophomore Cecilia Kay can score off the bounce, too. "Every day is player development day." When bigs can attack off the bounce they stress less mobile defenders and often create foul trouble. Teach everyone ball skills.
