Run this when you want to attack the block off a ball screen and keep defenders guessing on both sides. Your five man screens away to free the one for a low-post cut, then re-screens at the lane to get himself the ball at the elbow — you have two post threats on the same side in quick succession. Call it when your big can face up or spin, and you need layered looks rather than a single isolation.
