Run Low Post - Dots Cut when you want to get your five man a catch in the lane through a back-screen action. Your big screens for himself off the defense, catches the direct pass in the lane, and the weak-side wing clears to create a one-on-one opportunity on the block. This gets you a high-percentage post catch against any coverage.
