Basketball: Teaching Points, Tigers Top Lions in Ivy Final

Every game shares teaching points. These are Columbia-centric although Princeton wins the Ivy title. 


 The nightmare is already visible, doubling the post without enough help. 


Princeton runs a horns guard cut reminiscent of 1986 Bird and Walton...but Columbia shuts it down. 


Ball screen leads to draw two and then a three.
 

Columbia scores on a BOB with great spacing via a Princeton defensive error. 



Dribble handoff into shifty individual effort and tough finish for the Lions. 


Great play design off a SLOB with a fantastic slipped cross-screen into a layup.
