will put you in touch with Coach Burns.

Coaching Basketball

DIAGRAM 1: From a box set, 1 makes a dribble entry to the right side of the floor. As 1 dribbles, 5 breaks
down the lane line and sets a down screen for 2. 2 uses the screen and pops to the top of the key.


DIAGRAM 2: 1 passes the ball to 2. As the pass arrives, 4 quickly slides over and sets an on-the-ball screen
for 2. 2 can either look for the shot or make an entry pass in to 5 posting up on the low block.

DIAGRAM 3: If no shot opportunity was available, 2 uses 4's screen and dribbles to the left side of the floor. 3
slides across the lane and sets a cross-screen for 5. 5 cuts under the screen and posts up on the opposite
block.


DIAGRAM 4: 2 looks to make an entry pass into 5 on the low block. 3 breaks up from the baseline, using a
double-screen set by 4 and 1 at the weak-side elbow and cuts to the top. If 2 can't get the pass in to 5, he or
she looks for 3 for a 3-point shot at the top.
