Buford 30 Series

If you are looking for some nice offensive sets, you should look at the 30 Series sets.  You will find a variety of great screening (floppy, wide pins, shuffle, narrow pins) and cutting actions that will put your players in ideal scoring situations.

Quick Hitters and Quick Strikes

Take a look at these quick hitters and quick strikes that will get your players quality shots in the places they like to score.  It is important to know how your players like to score and where on the floor like to score from.  Hope these quick hitters help.

Diamond Quick Hitter

Here is a quick hitter I put together that would be a good end-of-game quick hitter that would give you a quality corner 3, wing PNR action, with a post duck-in.   One might think that you could trap the wing as 1 comes around for the fake hand-off.  However, if this gets trapped, 1 will be open in the corner as his guy will be involved in the trap.  At this point, 1 will have a baseline driving lane while the post seals his defender.

Golden State Horns 54 Slam

This is a set that I saw Golden State run last year that I found interesting, especially if you have a big who can attack off of the dribble.

Boston Celtics Punch 5

Doc Rivers is one of the best in the game at drawing up high scoring sets, especially out of time out situations.  This is a set called Punch 5 and it is a nice quick hitter if you have a point guard who is good at shooting off screening actions.  It also gives a nice post isolation as well.

Miami Heat Chest Get Set

Even though the Miami Heat have some amazing athletes, they run some of the best set actions in the NBA.  Today, we are going to look at a set called Chest Get. It ends with a  nice Side PNR action with a duck-in from the post and corner kick for a shooter

Belmont Box Sets

One thing I like about box sets is the flexibility.  There are so many things that you can do out of a box set that allow you to get into other offenses or even isolate a player.  This box set is ran by the Belmont Bruins.  I think you like the scoring actions used in this set.

Atlanta Hawks Offensive Sets

Here are some offensive sets ran by the Atlanta Hawks.  In my opinion, NBA sets can sometimes be to complicated to run at the level that I coach, high school boys.  However, once in a while I come across one that I think our players have the ability to run.  In this case, the Jersey Pin play really appealed to me.  I really like setting pin (narrow and wide) because not only does it give great scoring options for the cutter, but it also has great scoring options for the screener.  If the screener can learn to read how his defender is playing the screen, he can get all kinds of good looks.  I hope these plays are a good addition to your playbook.

Buford 14 Series

Today's basketball sets are from the Buford 14 Series.  In this series, you will find a number of variations to 1-4 high actions.  I particularly like the 14 pin set because I think setting a wide pin screen is a great scoring action.

Coach Troy Culley shows us another set ran by the Miami Heat.  This set is designed to get the ball into the post as a primary look, while having a 3 point look as a secondary option.

Billy Donovan: Elbow Cross Set

Here is a great half court set that has a number of screening actions to get your star player a high percentage shot.  I like screen the screen actions because it makes it more difficult for defenders to hedge or jam cutters coming off of the screen.

Sets to Attack Switching M2M Defenses

One of the things that I see a lot of teams, at various levels, doing defensively lately is switching screening actions.  This can be a difficult thing to attack if you and your players are not adequately prepared.  I am sharing with you a simple set play that you can use as a change up from your base offense against teams that like to switch screens.

1. Spacing - high and wide spacing is the first thing that you need to make sure is being executed.  Spacing alone will help with many of the problems that switching M2M defenses can cause.  We emphasize spacing as far as the NBA 3 point line.
2. Slipping Screens - with proper spacing you will have better opportunities to slip screens for easy baskets.  We emphasize lots of Flare screens and Pindown screens.  Again, the spacing of your offense will help with the success of your slip actions.  One of the set actions that I like is to get into an A-Set / Horns Set and run a flare action.  You will see that there are a number of different scoring options with in this one set.  There may be certain screening actions that you would want to use rather than the entire set.  It is important that you think about the strengths of your players and position them in places where they can be successful.

Troy Culley: Valencia - Quick Hitters for a 3

As a Coach one of my main loves is actions out of a Horns or an A-Set. Attached is two quick hitters from a Horns set that looks to create space for perimeter catch and shoot.

One involves a slight flex action whilst the other uses double screens to free up the shooter.

Bob Huggins: West Virginia Sets
