Lithuania - Choice Side PNR

Matt Wheeler 08/08/2016

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. See More
