Roll + Exit = "Rolex" ⌚ youtu.be/diHWsdf8SH0
If your 5 is a bit stiff offensively, using them to set exit screens is a solution
Take advantage of x5 slacking off and roaming in help
“Take the Charge Drill”
To expect them in games, you have to teach them in practice
Once you see "stretch-seal-dive" you can't unsee it
Big wingspans and active hands are key for success in the 1-3-1 half court trap
It’s very apparent - these guys have been trained well
More and more teams targetting the weak side corner with the their BLOBs
Basketball Actions Fun Scale:
10/10 = Hammer, Elevators, Iverson Curl, what else?

While providing opportunities for deflections and steals
With Braden Smith, TKR, and Loyer out, we get to see the next evolution of Coach Painter
Can't wait to see what he builds next
Circle Motion gives structure without handcuffs
"Motion Weak"
Secondary action with post looks and a screen the screener
On the next Princeton stream I do with Nate Hartman we gotta cover this clip @natehartman_

“Fast” | Zone Set

Self flows a zone BLOB directly into a zone SET
Overload ➡️ Lob
Teach Players to Love Taking Charges (Yes, Really)

Traditional zones sit and wait
