This backdoor play is great for teams that will either switch or deny the shallow cut to the wing for the point guard. Memphis ran this in the postseason last year against the Portland Trail Blazers in Game 2 of their series after they started Game 1 by pressuring Conley on the perimeter. See More

Turning motion weak into a ball screen is an excellent counter for teams that anticipate the cross-down action. It clears out an entire side of the court for the roll man to turn hard to the rim and look to finish. See More

The Minnesota Timberwolves ran Motion Weak and Kevin Martin, a strong outside shooter, never set the first cross screen. When the cross screen is not set and the offensive player darts up the down screen, his man will lag behind as he prepares to help on the cross screen. Without any contact with an opposing defender, Martin is free to get a step on his man before the action occurs. This wrinkle is great for a shooter if a team spends a lot of time running cross screens See More

Motion Weak, or "Thru", is a common NBA early offense set that can be run at any level. It is effective at using player movement and ball movement, trying to establish the post first and foremost, and getting a shooter open off a down screen. It is one of the best and most standard screen-the-screener actions, and it also results in tremendous floor balance with many wrinkles possible. Gregg Popovich of the Spurs has long been utilizing this set of offense. Steve Kerr and the Warriors have added a wrinkle, turning the set into a Horns formation off the down screen. See More

The Cross Texas 2-Step is a 3-count rhythmic ball handling maneuver where the crossing of the ball and the first of the 2 steps creates a momentary bidirectional cue diversion for the defender. That is, the ball is crossed from one side to the other while pseudo simultaneously stepping and planting in the opposite direction. In most cases it seems, the defender when confronted with 2 cues in opposite directions tends to favor (or lean toward) the latter cue. The 2nd step is now in the direction of the ball and opposite to the 1st plant step allowing the ball handler to get by the defender whose is leaning in the wrong direction. See More

These movement sequences combine an emphasis on lateral defensive quickness and wing curl shooting options with precise footwork. Each sequence results in a different movement pattern and shot, but builds on an attack counter strategy. This is certainly a technique development drill, but can be modified to add an antagonist to provide initial cue for defensive acceleration direction, and then rotational closeout context on the curl. Dr. Dish can be set with a tempo long enough for the option which requires the most time and shooter can machine gun feet until Dr. Dish passes the ball to start each option sequence. Or, if coach is passer then the Dr. Dish remote can be used. If used for technique development, the sequences should be performed on both sides of the basket, either alternately or repeating the 6 sequences on the opposite side. See More
