Living in Indianapolis, I have always had a lot of respect for Brad Stevens, dating back to the start of his career when he was an Assistant at Butler.

You might have to watch the video a couple of times to see the play develop.
It is a simple play, but effective if you have a player who is hard to keep from getting the basketball with a running start.
It is a You Tube video, so you will need to click the play arrow to see it.
