Basketball - 3 - 2 - 1 (Sets, SLOBs, BOB)

Special situations like BOBs, SLOBs, and ATOs allow well-drilled teams to create advantage. 

SETS

I'm partial to spread offense, horns, and others.

1. Spread. Recently I borrowed from Rod Olson's The Legacy Builder whose second core principle is SIMPLICITY. 

Initial spacing is spread. Open a gap with a cutter. DHO drive. 

2. Horns backscreen into wing ballscreen. Got a great screener? 

3. Obradovic 1-3-1 PnR options

Straight middle PnR with a clear or a modified give-and-go using a screener. 

SLOBs

1. Chris Oliver shares a beauty, a SLOB creating multiple possibilities.

2. "LAKER" a typical zipper entry into screen-the-screener play.  

BOB

1-4 Low into diagonal off-ball screen

I have a saying, "bigs away come back into play." 

Lagniappe. Dave Smart says, "Play harder for longer." Jeff Janssen agrees. 

ARE YOU:
✅ PRACTICING HARDER than your toughest opponent?
✅ GETTING STRONGER than your toughest opponent?
✅ IN BETTER SHAPE than your toughest opponent?
✅ MORE COMMITTED than your toughest opponent?
✅ MENTALLY TOUGHER than your toughest opponent?#CultureWins
