These two quick hitters that can be run as a part of a Princeton Offense system were contributed by Quinn McDowell.

4 Rip

 

Instead of waving 4 through to start the offense, 1 hits 3 on the wing and sets a rip screen for 4 to go into the post.

 

 

 

3 throws it into the post to 4 if he is open.

 

 

 
 

 

The back end of this play is for 3 to hit 1 (after he sets the rip screen for 4) at the top.

5 then sets and immediate high pick and roll for 1.

As 1 comes off the screen, 4 fills behind and 5 rolls to the rim.

 

Counter: Rip SBS

 

1 hits the wing and sets a rip screen for 4.

 

 

 

Instead of going to the post, 4 screens for 3 and they play a 2 man game on the wing.

While this is happening, 1 and 5 are staggering away for 2.
