I want to thank Coach Nick at @BBALLBREAKDOWN for putting together these plays the Cleveland Cavaliers ran in the NBA Summer League and a few plays coach David Blatt ran in Israel. I can't believe we have to wait a month and a half before the NBA regular season starts. See More

Instead of "over-coaching" and getting difficult looks for your players at the rim, you can now relax and draw forth the following plays to get your best players in isolation at the end of a game. In isolation sets, all the work by the coach is done before the player gets the ball. From there, it's up to the superstar to make a great one-on-one play. Danny Granger hit the game winner off this isolation set, drawn up by Frank Vogel out of a Box formation. See More

This is the SLOB ran last night by Brad Stevens and Butler down 70-67 against Marquette with .13 to play. The play used great misdirection in getting Clarke a clean look at a 3 which bounced off, but because of the great weak side rebounding position by Butler, they were able to tap in the rebound cutting the lead to 70-69. A very well designed set by from a timeout situation by the Butler Bulldogs and their great young Coach Brad Stevens. See More

Yesterday I shared Part 1 of Ballscreen Shooting which incorporated three different types of screening actions. The technique the throw-behind in Frame 1, is essentially a quick evade dribble. You are trying to throw the ball out in front of you, in an effort to create separation from the hedging defender, while also making it difficult for the initial defender to recover in time before the quick release jumper. Do not allow your players to just go through the motions, set a goal to reach during each set. Example: You MUST go 7-for-10 before moving to the next sequence. See More

In this special, staggered screens free cutters along the baseline. 4 cuts baseline first as a decoy. He catches on left wing from 1. 2 and 5 continue their staggered screen action for 3. 3 can cut, catch and score or cut and post on the left block. Final option is for 5 to use 2's screen to curl for quick shot in the paint. Give it a try! See More

In an attempt to get Amar'e Stoudamire going during his limited minutes, Mike Woodson had the New York Knicks ran this post-up action several times last night in their win over the Indiana Pacers in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals. Spreading the floor our the way the Knicks did made this action difficult to run and would be an excellent option if you have a dominant post player on your team. By using Jason Kidd to set the screen on Stoudemire, you make the defense make a decision to switch or help and recover. In my opinion, switching is not even an option. By helping and recovering, the defense arrives late and allows the post player to catch and make a move towards the rim quicker. See More

The Sacramento Kings ran this sideline inbounds play with less than one minute left in their 112-108 loss to the Clippers on 4/17/2013. DeMarcus Cousins had a big game scoring 36 points and scored on two inbounds plays with less than a minute left to keep the game close. If you have a matchup advantage it is a good idea to isolate the scorer and let them do what they do best. See More

The Sacramento Kings ran this play with less than a minute to go in their 112-108 loss to the Clippers on 4/17/13. DeMarcus Cousins scored 36 points in the game and this is one of back to back inbounds plays he scored on. Although you might not have DeMarcus Cousins on your team, this will work for your best post player or any other player who you feel has a mismatch in the foul line area. See More
