Basketball Plays--Argentina 4 Flare

This play is run against a man to man defense and is from Creighton Burns' newsletters. If you are interested in receiving his newsletter, contact us and we will put you in touch with Coach Burns.

Basketball Plays

#1 enters the ball to #4, and receives a flare screen from #5.

#3 cuts to the block on the pass to #4 and #1 runs a flare cut to the wing away from the ball.

After setting the screen, #5 will step out and fill the spot opposite #4.






Basketball Plays

#4 passes to #5 and #5 quickly moves the ball on to #1 on the wing.

On the pass from #5 to #1, #3 sets a back screen for #4 and #4 will run a shuffle cut to the rim.

If #4 is open, he should get the ball.

#5 after making the pass will pause and then set a down screen for #3.

#3 will use the screen to free himself at the point.


Basketball Plays

If #3 receives the ball and does not have a shot opportunity, he will swing the ball to #2, and then screen down for the back side post, #4.

#1 rotates out to the ball side guard spot, and #4 fills the ball side high post.

The players are now set and ready to run the "hi-low" action.
