A huge portion of Bridgeland's offense hinges on his players' ability to make the correct decisions when using ball screens  and in this video  he passes on his methods for helping athletes pick their spots to attack off ball screens.\u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhilosophy\u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn offense  your goal should always be to get easy scoring opportunities as close to the basket as possible. Ball screens are one of the best avenues to getting deep in the paint to create these scoring chances.\u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCoach Bridgeland's ball screen approach  combined with his attacking fence offense  is designed to teach players to run  get to the paint  put constant pressure on the defense  and produce more possessions. Ball screens give players ownership of the offense  as they are the ones creating and mastering the action as the game goes on.\u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGuard Breakdown\u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn his guard breakdown  Bridgeland teaches how to attack various types of screen defense. From the hard show to soft show  to switching defenses  to icing the ball handler  your guards will learn how to attack them all coming off of a screen. \u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough 2v2 drills  players learn to change their speed as they approach the screen and look to square up just past the screener to create misdirection. Off of this action  they can look to attack. Whether pushing off the leg of the defender as they go by or getting low using a bulldog drive into the paint  your players will create advantages they can use to get into the paint.\u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePost Breakdown\u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the post break down  Bridgeland shows how to set solid screens and keep proper spacing.  Post players learn to pop off the screen if they have range to help spread out the defense. They also learn to roll wide just outside the lane line  which allows the ball handler to continue to attack the rim and get into the paint. In Bridgeland's 1v1 drill  post players set the screen on a defender and read the help-side defender to determine how they are supposed to react to the screen. \u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRounding out the video is a 3v3 and 4v4 live section where players learn to read screens in game speed.  Coach Bridgeland uses the 3v3 and 4v4 formats to make the practice environment more controlled and help players adjust to the faster pace.\u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is an excellent video for coaches looking to use ball screens as a complement to their base offense.
