A staple of the Popovich playbook, the Hawk action is code for a side ballscreen occuring at the same time as a double stagger on the opposite side. It's a ballscreen that occupies help. In recent years the Spurs have run it with Kawhi Leonard as the ball screener, hoping he can pick-and-pop and isolate off of it. See More

The Cleveland Cavs ran this play to get a look for a shooter (3) for a 3. They also used this play to help set up their next one (PNR Pindown Lob). When 1 dribbles off of the screen from 5, he can turn the corner for a shot or wait for 3 coming of the staggered screen. See More

Baseline post-up set for a wing coming off a double screen. Made better by a 1-3 ball screen to start the action, perhaps getting a better mismatch See More

With 29.8 seconds remaining in the 4th quarter and the OKC Thunder trailing the Denver Nuggets by 4 points, Billy Donovan ran this ATO action for Russell Westbrook to get a drive. The initial action by Victor Oladipo curling off of the stagger screen is decoy action to create movement. Steven Adams follows and sets a second screen for Westbrook. Adams diving to the basket after the screen puts pressure on the defense for a potential lob. See More

This box set incorporates our "ELBOW" action. The Elbow action starts in a box set, with guards splitting to the wings. Post lift up the lane line. What I like about this play is the versatility. It can be used to generate an open 3, a post iso, or a high/low look. It can also be used effectively against man-to-man or zone defense, by simply teaching 4 to set the cross screen on the middle of the zone.

This is a wrinkle from the Boston Celtics "4" action in early offense. Instead of 1 (Isaiah Thomas) following his pass for a handoff after throwing it to 4 and attacking downhill with his left, 4 fakes the handoff and passes to 3 lifting up to the wing on the right side. 1 & 4 set a stagger screen for 2.

Way too often, teams have put the ball into a player's hands, and asked him to be a hero. There is no action being run, and the player dribbles into a contested shot. The goal of this is to give coaches some other actions that they can use to generate a quality shot. See More

This BLOB action from Gonzaga is a read where 1 cuts to the front of the basket against the "top lock" when X1 denies him the stagger screen. 3 follows right behind 1's backcut cutting to the ball for a catch. See More

South Carolina ran this BLOB action for P.J. Dozier against Gonzaga in the 2017 NCAA Final Four. The first option is to hit the cutter on the backcut versus the overplay/denial. If the passer cannot hit the backcut, the action flows into a dribble handoff then the stagger screen for back cutter on the strong-side for an open 3-point shot. See More

Mississippi State ran this BLOB early in the second half. Iowa State's men's team ran the same action earlier in the men's tournament. The stagger action sets up a screen the screener which, if not guarded correctly, leads to a wide open post iso on the ball side. See More
