Gut BLOB to Pick and Roll

By Brian Williams on August 15, 2018

Man to man under out inbound play.

My hope for you is that you can take actions and movements from these plays to fit into your system and the abilities of your players.

The play was contributed by Diccon Lloyd-Smeath to the FastModel Sports Basketball Plays and Drills Library.

Diccon Lloyd-Smeath is based in London, England, and currently coaching at Reading Rockets as well as internationally with Basketball Wales and Basketball England’s U15 National Team as a Performance Analyst.

This is what Diccon said about the play:

Nice BLOB from Spain Coach Sergio Scariolo.

Staggered screen to inbound the ball, then “gut cut” (similar to a zipper cut but inside) from 1 through a down screen from 5.

On the catch, 5 and 3 enter Spain PNR.

Tough to guard with lots of movement and screening action.

 

3 cuts off back screen from 5.

This cut is to loosen 5’s defender more than to score.

 

 

 

 

5 then turns to set staggered screen with 4 for 2, who curls off to receive pass from 1.

 

 

 

 

 

1 makes gut cut up through paint.

5 sets a down screen to help 1 to receive reversal pass from 2.

4 clears out to wing.

 

 

 

On catch, 5 and 3 set screens for Spain PNR.

2 and 4 fill the corners.

 

 

 

 

5 rolls, 3 pops and 1 makes best decison.

These guard-to-big and big-to-guard screens will create mismatches when defenses switch or open shots when screen defenders “show” on offensive players receiving screens.

2 sets a back screen for 4.

5 sets a cross screen for 2.

1 passes to 2 for the shot.
