  3. 1. You set a screen on an area
    2. The offensive player can go back door, run a curl, or run a bump.
    3. You should curl off of a screen when you grab the screener's hip to not let the defender through, but let the defender follow him. (pin the defender)
    4. The most important thing to do when coming off of a screen is to read the defense.

  6. 1). An area
    2). Back door, curl, & bump
    3). When the defender follows
    4). Open the shoulder that the cutter came off of
    5). My team probably has done it both successfully and unsuccessfully, but I have not kept an eye out for this move before because I didn't know what it was.
