Like most good basketball plays this play requires your players to set good screens for each other. Every time that your team sets a good screen it puts the defense at a disadvantage because now they have to figure out how they are going to handle the screen. The more good screens in a basketball play the more chances there are to mess up and allow a good look at a shot or layup.
This West Virginia play is going to require your players to set angle screens/back screens for cutters to the basket, and the goal is to get a finish at the basket. So it is important that your players choose the right angles and set good legal screens.
