Sidecourt Inbounds Play
Fade Double For 3 |
When the inbounds passer (3) receives the ball from the official, player 2 cuts hard towards the ball off of a screen from 1. (If this is so poorly played by the defense, a pass could be made here for a shot -- however, the way the defense generally plays it will open up the 3-pointer in the next movement). After player 2 cuts off the screen, player 1 quickly turns to set another screen for 2. 2 turns and, using the screen from 1, starts running out to the opposite side of the court. Players 4 and 5 step in to set a doublescreen as player 2 fades out to the 3-point line. Player 3 passes to 2 for the shot. Coaching Points: The player making the inbounds pass will need to have the strength and ability to throw a high lob-type pass across the court. It must go high like a skip pass against a zone or it will not clear the defense. Also, if the shooter (2) is not open, look for 1 to get open on his own or for 2 to cut hard towards the ball. Another option may also open up with #4 (the high player on the doublescreen). If his defender gives too much help, he may find himself open by taking a quick step or two towards the passer and near the foul line. Certainly various options can present themselves here, but the main focus is getting the '3' when needed. |
