THE COACH'S VAULT.
Plays, drills, and the reasoning behind them — diagrammed so you can actually run it tomorrow. Steal freely.
HORNS FLARE
Bigs to the elbows, guards in the corners. 1 enters and cuts through; 4 sets the flare for 2 coming off the weak side. If the defence top-locks, 4 slips straight to the rim.
- Ball movement
- Player cut
- Ball handler
