Basketball Plays Chin Set

By Brian Williams on August 26, 2013

Basketball Plays Chin Set

These diagrams came from one of Creighton Burns’ newsletters.

This is an offense that John Beilein has used over the years of his coaching career.

Coach Burns gave Jamie Angeli credit for sharing this set.

Start in 2 – 3 set. There are 3 different ways to get into this set.

 

 

 

 

Basketball Plays

Guard to Center Pass – #1 passes to #5
#1 and #2 then both cut hard to the basket.
If #5 can pass to either #1 or #2, he passes to them for a backdoor lay-up.
#3 and #4 come out to replace #1 and #2.
If the backdoor is not open, #5 passes to #3 or #4.

 

Basketball Plays

After #5 passes to #3.
#3 passes to #4.
#4 reverses to #2.
#3 then rubs off #5 on a hard cut to the basket.
#2 passes to #3 for the lay-up.

 

Basketball Plays

If #3 is not open:
After #4 reverses to #2, #4 v-cuts towards the basket and then pops back out.
#5 banana cuts to screen #4’s defender.
#2 passes to #4 after he pops back.
#4 shoots the 3-pointer or drives hard off #5’s screen for the lay-up.

Basketball Plays

If #4 is cut off by his defender, #4 passes to #1 for a 3-pointer.
If #1 is not open for a shot, he dribbles high.
#2 comes high on the left side.
#3 moves up to the left wing.
#4 after passing goes to the corner and then moves up to the right wing.
 
#5 moves toward the middle of the free throw line.

Basketball Plays

Now the same pattern is run on the right side of the floor.

#1 passes to #4.
#2 rubs cuts off #5 and cuts hard to the basket.
#4 passes to #2 for the lay-up.

 

Basketball Plays

If #2 is not open:
After #1 passes to #4, he v-cuts towards the basket and then pops back out.
#5 banana cuts to screen #1’s defender.
#1 shoots the 3-pointer or drives hard off 5’s screen for the lay-up.

 

Basketball Plays

If #1 is cut off by his defender, #1 passes to #3 for the 3-pointer.
If #3 is not open for a shot, he dribbles high.
#4 comes high on the right side.
#2 moves up to the right wing.
#1 after passing goes to the corner and then moves up to the left wing.
 
#5 moves toward the middle of the free throw line.

The same pattern now starts on the left side.
