Mike MacKay ballscreens
 | 1 Mike MacKay guelphbasketball.com a) 2 on 0 Use both sides, coach is the passer. The screener should sprint to set a legal ballscreen from a blind spot of the defence, taking a good angle so that xballhandler can't go under the screen (option - use a chair or stationary coach as xballhandler). The ballhandler should catch in shooting range, fake to set up his man before using the screen, go by shoulder to shoulder, and read the defence. See Shooting - Sidescreens. b) 2 on 1, add a defender on the screener. Read and react to the defender, e.g., attack the top foot on a hard hedge, look to split. |
 | 2 c) 2 on 2 Use various ways to defend ballscreens so attackers can learn their reads. Work on different ballscreens, e.g., a middle (area) ballscreen. See Pitt 2 on 2 ballscreens, Horns 2 on 2 sidescreen. d) 3 on 3 Work on using and reading a help defender. See 3 on 3 sidescreen, Horns 3 on 3, Horns 3 on 3 high posts. |
