Post Continuations
Lagun Aro did an excellent job of getting the ball into the post and then creating and attacking spaces on the court...intelligently.
Step 1: Ball inside = the other post flashes (or is already) above the free throw line
1. Create space close to the basket
Step 2 is to attack this space intelligently. The passer had to make a decision after passing the ball to the post. Option A was to pass and cut and the big screens away for a guard to come and replace. One thing they did a fantastic job of was reading and attacking the spaces based on reads rather than rules. In the second image the wing that normall comes out on the ball side makes a cut after the passer gets through.
pass and cut + replace
Option B is to pass and recieve a screen. This screen could be a flare towards the top of the kye as we see in the first image. Or in the second image we see a trademark of Lagun Aro coach Sito Alonso to set a screen on an atypical angle. "If this screen is always set like this then let's set it on the other side."
