A while back, I read an article about how a college basketball team (I cannot recall which team) had a stable of Play-after-the-play options (PAP). PAP’s are actions that your team can go to after the initial play call or action doesn’t yield a scoring opportunity, yet you still have control of the possession.
This moment for all coaches presents all kinds of opportunities, some good, some bad. Coaches may call another set (high school more than college due to shot clock), allow players to create on their own, or in this case have a planned action to go to. The program I was reading about preferred Ghost Ballscreens late in the shot clock.
I’ve seen teams go into straight dribble handoff action as a PAP, especially if the defense switches all or many DHO’s, and they’ll wait for the mismatch opportunity. Many teams will ballscreen in some form at this time in a possession. I’ve seen Purdue do this, with the focus on the roll-man (Zach Edy). Regardless, I think you should have a quick call that your team can run right into simply, and quickly.
I like this little gem of a ballscreen action.
