Stack - Out of Bounds Play

Stack
Out of bounds offense against any defense




This play is really simple and straightforward.  This is designed for a three-pointer from the opposite side corner off the inbound.  
  1. Real straightforward here.  This play is set up with a shooter and a screener stacked at the block away from the ball, a guard at the elbow, and a forward/center at the ball-side block.  
  2. On the ball-side of the play, have the forward up-screen for the guard, and the guard will come off of it flashing to the basket.  After setting the screen, the forward should roll to the corner.  This is basically a distraction, while also lulling the opposite side defense to sleep.  After about 1.5-2 seconds, the shooter away from the ball will make a hard two-step flash to the middle of the paint.  Immediately the shooter will turn around as the center "C" sets a screen on the shooter's man, and your three-point shooter will sprint to the corner off the screen.  If a solid screen is set, this will result in wide-open three.  This is the shot this play is designed for.  If the screener's man fights around the screen to take away the corner pass, it will leave the paint open for a quick bounce pass for a lay-up.

This play can really only be used once a game because of its simplicity.  It should work when you use it, but if you use it more than once there's a good chance the defense will know exactly what shot you're looking for.
