Simple Down
STEP 1

Initial positions are set so the team can move in a coordinated way and create space.

STEP 2

Exteriors try to receive. They have several options:
  • Curl using the inside screens
  • Cut from below Stagger Screen for both exteriors and move outside for reception
  • Fake bottom screen, reception feint.

STEP 3

In this diagram, it is Curl rizo. We can delay the release trying for one exterior to cut first and then the other exterior shortly after, and see the possibility of an inside pass.

STEP 4

Once passed to one of the exteriors, passer screens the weak side for a possible pass to 2

STEP 5

5 looks to receive from 3, but if not, plays Cross Screen between the inside players.

STEP 6

Passing options:
2.- To player 2 coming off the screen:
  • Reception for catch & shoot
  • Triangle with inside players
  • Ball reversal continuing with 1 
4 and 5.  Reception for inside game of 4 or pass to 5 continuing to high post 

STEP 7

In this situation, pass to 5 to form a triangle with 4.
But if no pass is found, 5 runs BD quickly with 3, 4 opens to the strong side corner

STEP 8

Play

Simple Down

5-vs-5 structured offense with strategic planning The play aims for an inside shot near the basket.
