O4 cuts through and could get the pass from O1. Here are several plays that use the ball-screen. Tom Izzo: "Chest" play - from Tom Izzo: Man-to-Man Offense and Counters If the pass goes to the elbow (O5), O5 looks to pass inside to O4 sealing down low (diagram V2). If O3 passes to either wing (here O1), the opposite post flashes to the ballside elbow.

O3 could pass to either cutter, but in the confusion, has a 1-on-1 iso situation with the X3 defender and O3 could either shoot or dribble-drive to the hoop (diagram V).Īfter down-screening for O1, O4 immediately posts up for a possible hi-lo pass from O3 (diagram V). O1 and O2 X-cut around O3 in the paint (diagram U) and then, using the down-screens from O4 and O5, cut back out to the wings. O4 and O5 would sprint out to the wings as seen in diagram T, and O3 flashes to the high post and receives the pass from O1. If we are getting a lot of pressure from the defense, we may start with a stack in the paint, with O3 lowest, and O4 and O5 above. ISO-3 (High-Post ISO - "Chest" - see video below) If O4 is well-defended, O5 cuts into the paint for the quick hi-lo pass from O4. O3 passes to O4, who now has an "iso" situation and could shoot or dribble-drive to the hoop (diagram S). O3 receives the pass from O1, as O4 cuts up to the opposite high-post area. O1 dribbles toward the left, as O2 cuts to the left corner and O3 cuts to the left wing. Start with the double-low stack as seen in diagram R. This play will isolate O4 1-on-1 with his/her defender. Here are several plays that isolate ("ISO") certain players 1-on-1 with the defender. O2 cuts hard over the double down-screen and could get the pass from O1 for the open 3-point shot. O5 could get the pass from O1 for the inside post-move and shot (diagram P). O3 back-screens for O5, who cuts to the ball-side block and posts up. O5 passes to O4, and O4 passes to O1 (diagram O). O5 pops out to the arc and receives the pass from O1. Start in the box set as seen in diagram N.

O5 posts-up strong in the lane for the pass from O4 and the post-move and shot. If nothing develops off the pick and roll, O4 pops out on top to the arc and gets the pass from O3. In diagram B, O5 ball-screens for O3 and the pick and roll play is on, with a possible pass to O5 rolling off the screen. After passing to O3, O1 cuts through to the opposite corner. O3 curls around O5 and will receive the pass from O1. Start in the 1-4 high set as seen in diagram A below. From DVD Tom Izzo - Open Practice: Offensive PlaybookĬoach Izzo has several plays that use the 1-4 high set.
