Period 5 Basketball

Due Date: Wednesday, December 4th

In class we have been working on setting screens and discussing reading the defense in our 3 on 3 unit. Please watch the video below and answer the following questions. Each question is worth 2 points. Please make sure to write your name on your Blog.
1. When you set a screen, do you set the screen on a person or an area?

2. What are 3 things the offensive player can do when they are being screened?

3. When should you curl off of a screen?

4. What is the most important thing to do when coming off a screen?

5. How frequently is your team using screens during your game play? Have they been effective for your team?

1.Screen the area
2. Back door, Curl(Jump shot, Hard/Lay up), Bump.
3. Because the defender is following you.
4. Grab the screeners hip and run a curl hard so you can get open for the ball and post up.
5. Very frequently, yes they have been very effective for my team.

2)backdoor, curl, bump

3)if defender chases around the screen

4)read the defender

5)not very often, we just learned how to use a screen so we are not able to utilize it well, there is too much hesitation when trying to execute it so it is not very effect on our team

1.) You screen an area
2.)Back door, Curl, Bump
3.)When the defender is following you so he has something in his path of following you.
4.)Know if the defender is back so you can pull up or forward so you can drive.
5.) Not at all, but they would be effective

1.) You screen the area.
2.)Call for a back door pass, curl off the defender, go for a drive/lay-up, or bump.
3.)You curl off the screen when the defender is following you and your teammate is ready to make the pass.
4.)Call for the ball and make sure you complete and finish your curl off of the defender, so you can post up.
5.) Not very often. I feel we should because we would than get a a lot more open shots.

5) My team uses screens on occasion. When we do use them, they are very effective. They usually lead to open jump shots or lay-ups. I do feel that we could use them more consistently.
