These 2 plays from the Eurobasket Tournament eBook Playbook (assembled by Kyle Pertuset)
My hope in presenting plays is that you can take them and change them to fit your own needs or to use to brainstorm ways to get your scorers into positions where they can be effective.
For example, you might be able to find ways to screen for your ball screeners in some of your sets to help them get to their ball screen without their defender.
These two sets from the Eurobasket Tournament provide different ways to create scoring opportunities against man-to-man defense. The first combines a dribble handoff, ball screen, and staggered screening action to give the ball handler multiple reads.
The second uses a post entry while a triple stagger is set on the weak side to create an open perimeter shot. Both actions can also be adjusted to take advantage of your personnel and put your best scorers in favorable situations.
Estonia Horns Stagger
1 dribbles to the right wing.
5 screens for 4
1 runs a dribble hand off with 2
4 sets a ball screen for 2 after the dribble hand off.
1 continues to the other side to come off a stagger from 3 and 5
2 comes off the ball screen and can hit the roller or 1 coming of the screens.
You could include 3 spacing with 5 flashing to the lane if that fits your needs.
Czech Republic Post Entry Triple Stagger
You could also use this as a way to isolate your 1 in the post if that is to your advantage.
1 passes to 3 and cuts to the block off a screen from 5
4 passes to 3.
3 enters the ball to 1 in the low post.
3, 4, and 5 set a triple stagger for 2 to cut behind the ball for a possible 3 point shot.
