The Semifinal game between Canada and Czech Republic was a thriller with Canada making a furious comeback to send the game into overtime. Canada's head coach, Nick Nurse, drew up this play to hopefully send them to a second overtime. As soon as 3 gets the ball from the referee they throw it to 5. 1, 2 and 5 hold their spots until the ball is halfway there. Then 5 pops out and 1 and 2 squeeze together to screen for him. This works because the weakside defenders are locked in on their man and aren't seeing the ball as it is passed. Once the screen happens the ball arrives and Canada was able to get a good look at a shot. Video clip below. Canada is the #21 team in the FIBA World Rankings. *NBA Finals promo code CHAMPION2021 for 21% OFF Draw/Scout* See More

This play is a variation of the stagger DHO that the Ramblers run. 1 will fake setting the stagger, then cut back to use the screen from 4 before getting the handoff from 5. It's a great counter to catch the defense off balance once they have run the stagger screen a few times. FastModel's biggest offer of the year for new subscribers!

The Ramblers add another screener into the mix in this play, which makes it crowded for the defense no matter how they defend it.
