In this on-court presentation, NBA head coach Dwane Casey teaches you over 10 set plays from various inbound positions that have multiple options/counters to get a quick 2- or 3-pointer out of a timeout when the game is on the line.
You will learn the spacing and timing to spring your shooters for quality looks, with multiple options when well-guarded. You'll get a strong understanding of Coach Casey's scoring strategies by watching players execute plays from out of bounds on the sideline and endline, on both sides of the floor, with and without defense
Sideline Out-of-Bounds Plays
To make sure the sideline plays work, Casey demonstrates tips and strategies to force the inbounder to pass with their weak hand and how to use decoy players to draw attention away from your primary action.
You'll see five plays, each with multiple options. Coach Casey runs through scoring options for quick 3-pointers off cuts, down screens and flare screens, as well as options going to the basket. He details a Raptors play where they use a scissoring action off a screener at the nail with the point guard starting in the backcourt, where it can be inbounded, and serving as an outlet if needed.
Casey also demonstrates three sideline out-of-bounds plays using back screens that can be used to catch a lob at the basket or to catch and shoot a 3-pointer when there is less than a second left on the clock.
Endline Out-of-Bounds Plays
After showing a set up to quickly break a press when there are no timeouts left, Casey demonstrates five plays from the baseline when there is a short clock. He shows the sequence of reads for most positions to get behind the line to shoot a 3-pointer, using clean up (pick the picker) actions and flare screens.
He also demonstrates two plays with the posts at the elbows, with some quick actions to get them the ball diving to the basket if there is less than a second left on the clock.
Additionally, Coach Casey provides great detail on timing, angles of screens, counters and footwork, which help execute the plays successfully.
This video is a 'must-have' for coaches who need simple but effective actions to score from a dead ball when the pressure is highest. With Coach Casey leading the players through the plays, with and without defense, you will clearly see all the options for getting your team the best possible scoring opportunity in these special situations.

Even the greatest players in the world spend time working on basic fundamentals in practice. Learn how NBA All-Stars such as DeMar DeRozan and Kyle Lowry are instructed by Coach Dwane Casey to raise their game on the defensive end.
Coach Casey demonstrates how he leads the Toronto Raptors through nine training camp drills that focus on individual and team defense fundamentals in order to form a strong foundation for the season. You will learn Coach Casey's strategies for keeping the ball out of the paint, as well as how to communicate coverages.
Individual Defense Drills
No detail in your on-ball defensive fundamentals can be taken for granted when you are challenged with keeping the most elite scorers on the planet in front of you on a nightly basis. Coach Casey demonstrates three closeout drills with five variations that will help your players master their closeout technique through multiple progressions. These drills will teach players how to take a "no-middle" defensive stance on the wing using the run off & recover tactic to deny a great shooter their scoring opportunities, as well as rotating with the X call to cover shooters in dribble penetration scenarios.
The next few drills build on the closeout techniques to incorporate guarding the ball off the dribble, challenging the shot without fouling, and boxing out effectively to prevent offensive rebounds. The Mine Drill will develop a mentality with your team to never give up on a play by forcing defenders to scramble in a 4-on-3 disadvantage situation.
Team Defense Drills
Learn the tenets to the Toronto Raptors' defensive philosophy regarding on-ball screening actions. The 3-Line Closeout drill simulates the Blue technique versus side ball screens and Weak technique versus high ball screens in a single possession. Coach Casey breaks down the details to both coverages, such as the terminology the Raptors use to communicate, hand positioning to deter passes out of the pick & roll, and how far the post should extend to help on the screen. A variation to this drill shows how you can switch with your post players using the Pull It strategy.
Two additional drills teach players to fight through dribble hand-offs, how to use the Blue technique on pinch post action, and defeating wide pin-downs.Three more drills cover a variety of offensive and defensive concepts. See how the Toronto Raptors get loose at the start of all their practices throughout the season with the Five Man Weave drill. The 2-on-1 Finishing Drill serves a dual purpose in teaching offensive players how to score at the rim while also helping your defensive players learn how to protect the basket.
All coaches have an interest in teaching fundamental defensive skills to their team. In this video, Coach Casey draws on his expertise at the top level to present a number of simple, but powerful drills to develop defensive habits and schemes that you can use in your practices every day.
