1 cuts to the left wing; 3 screens near the left low post; 1 passes to 2

Call Blast Action when you need a simple, decisive guard-to-guard transfer to start your offense. Your one hits the two and the whole set flows from there, so the action is fast enough to beat a defense that is still getting organized. Use it off a timeout or dead ball when you want to put the ball in your two guard's hands in rhythm.
