Favorite Send to FastDrawQuick Hitter from BCZK Iverson Formation. It works better when 2 is the best shooter in the team, so defense can not cheat and go under 5-2 screen. FMS Blog: Zalgiris Kaunas - ATO/EOG Series See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawVery effective set in Early Offense for a wide open three. The key is a good screen of 5 on 1-5 Step Up PNR, which creates advantage on PNR and forces 4 help on 5 roll to the basket. After that there are 2 on 1 situation on weakside and good Hammer Screen of 4 allows 2 shoot a wide open 3. FMS Blog: Zalgiris Kaunas - ATO/EOG Series See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawGreat End of Game set. Here BCZK executes a nice Hammer play when they need a 3pt shot. This play works because when 1 and 5 run the middle pick and roll, x4 has to help on 5 rolling to the basket, which creates a great opportunity to run a hammer screen for 2 on the weak side.

Favorite Send to FastDrawATO from BCZK. In this set, 2 is the best shooter but acts as a decoy. 2 sells coming off 4's pin down screen, but instead sets a back screen so that 4 can get a lob at the rim. x4 will be in a stance ready to help on the shooter and unable to defend against the lob.

Favorite Send to FastDrawHere is a creative way Zalgiris uses Spain PNR in a baseline out of bounds situation. Play begins with a stagger into a zipper for the inbounder who catches at top of the key. Spain action ensues from here (frame 3) with 1 setting the back screen and popping, Having 3 and 4 cut through to opposite corners during this primary action offers some nice misdirection to distort the defense.

Favorite Send to FastDrawPossibly the longest set in BCZK playbbok, witha Rip Screen, Thunder Screen, Euro Flow and Spain PNR in one set. Great action from head coach Sarunas Jasikevicius to challenge the defense, and his players execute it very well. Blog Breakdown: Zalgiris Kaunas - Spain PNR Series See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawDiamond set into side ball screen Spain PNR from BCZK. Succesfully running Side Spain PNRs the entire season, this play was deadly for Zalgiris because of the Swing action which forces all five defenders be active in defense the whole 24 seconds of the shot clock.

Favorite Send to FastDrawInteresting variation of Spain PNR from BCZK. In this set, 5 (rather than a shooter like in classic Spain action) sets the back screen for 4. If 5 sets a good screen, it allows BCZK to throw a lob to its best alley oop threat in forward Aaron White (4 in diagrams, #30 in video). Blog Breakdown: Zalgiris Kaunas - Spain PNR Series See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThis set looks like a classic Spain PNR in stack position, but this set starts from Horns formation. And now the defense cannot switch between smalls, as is common with many European teams to defend Spain PNR (when x3 takes 1 driving, and x1 takes 3 popping to 3pt line). Here x3 must guard 5 at elbow and cannot help on 1 driving to the basket. Blog Breakdown: Zalgiris Kaunas - Spain PNR Series See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawAn interesting counter to BCZK's original Iverson Guard Post Series. In this set, instead of receiving the ball in the post, 1 uses 2's pindown screen right into a DHO with 5. This action is extremely difficult for x1 to defend and puts pressure on the entire defense to help out, opening up several options. Blog Breakdown: Zalgiris Kaunas - Iverson Series See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawHere's a creative way to run Spain PNR by adding it after a Logo PNR. BCZK doesn't run this often, but it's a nice counter to their original set which posts 1 at the block. They usually score with this progression. Blog Breakdown: Zalgiris Kaunas - Iverson Series See More
