One of the best parts of running Spain Pick and Roll is to emphasize the drive to score possibility for the handler. Three defenders are potentially occupied by defending the action, and two double gaps are created on each side of the stack alignment.

I once sat in on a film session where OKC’s Mark Daigneault clipped every rim roll that didn’t get the ball… but the team scored anyway. That’s advantage creation. I asked him about this in this clip 🤩

Most players never play uncoached basketball anymore. That changes how they learn. In an interview with Pistons HC J.B. Bickerstaff at All‑Star, we talked about designing practices where coaches step back so players learn to think, communicate, and adapt.

No 3-man weave...here's why ⤵️ Research shows that perception and decision-making are what transfer most from practice to a game, not just technique repetition. Avoid drills without defenders where players never have to perceive, decide and execute. A thread 🧵
