Sidescreens
 | 1 Ian MacKinnon Players at the top pass and follow to pick and roll, the ballhandlers sell opposite (baseline), get to a shoulder, and attack the basket. The screener and ballhandler change lines but stay on the same side. Continue, then the shot progression is - two-dribble pull-up jump shot - pullback dribble, attack the basket - hit the roll guy - the screener slips the screen for a pass - the screener pops to the corner or short corner for a pass. Players change sides, repeat. (Other options - reject, split, early split, shoot from behind the screen) Variations - 3 and 4 each have a ball on the wing (or dribble down to the wing), screeners start at the ballside elbow or low post. Australian Development Camp - work in pairs, 1 passes to 4 and follows to ballscreen, 4 uses the screen, shoots, rebounds, passes to 1 and ballscreens. Progression - the screener pops for a pass (the passer rebounds). See Attack/defend - Mike MacKay ballscreens, Shooting - Schepp ballscreens, Hanlen ballscreens, Dave Smart sidescreens, Duke wing ballscreens, Mike Procopio sidescreen. Matt Hackenberg - Ballscreen Combo 1 dribbles down to the wing and 4 comes up from the rim to ballscreen; on the other side, 3 lifts from the corner, screener 2 passes from the high elbow and follows. Ballhandler options - reject, split, gap shot (defence goes under), pullback dribble, pocket pass, turn the corner (score, late pass to roller), pass on look-back, pop. Screener options - slip, pop, roll (reverse pivot), dive (front pivot), short roll, roll and seal (high-low pass), roll and look back (seal and post), re-screen, also dribble hand-off (for 2). Curl behind or dive if the ballhandler rejects the screen. Coaches pass with some combinations so every player gets a shot, e.g. - hesitate and turn the corner, the screener pops for a pass from coach - gap shot, the screener rolls and seals for a high-low low pass - reject the screen and score, the screener dives or curls behind - split the screen, the screener pops.

 | 2 Canada Basketball Technical Manual To work on a triangle pass (here a high-low pass), add a player at the weakside low post who runs outside the paint as 2 rolls to the basket. Progression - add a defender in the lane who defends 2 and 4. Against a switching defence, a triangle pass to get the ball inside is the first option, if that's not there, get the ball back to the guard to create a one-second advantage off the dribble, the post slides to the short corner to create space. Against a hard hedge, the screener should slip, or reverse the ball quickly to hit the roller, the screen defender has extended. (Variations) - 4 ducks in for a pass, bounce passes to 2 - 4 starts in the weakside slot - 4 starts in the ballside corner and fills behind the ballscreen. See Shooting - Procopio ballscreen series, Tactics - Enfield ballscreen spacing, Bill Self ballscreens (drag to a pass back).  |
