About This Play/Drill

Lithuania frequently uses this play to get into a side ball screen action.  They place the player who they want in the ball screen (2) under the basket so they can come off of a screen on either side.  On the pass to 2, 3 screens for the post player on the opposite side so his defender will be late in defending the ball screen.  Lithuania likes to play in a spread pick & roll situation so they then lift the 4 up above the 3 point line.  This way 1 can look for 5 rolling to the basket or any of the 3 shooters spaced outside the 3 point line.
