Barcelona Zone BLOB

BLOB Zone Offense

This is an inbounds play run by Barcelona against a zone defense.

This BLOB is a good way to put pressure on the zone in multiple areas.

Phase 1

3 cuts hard to the corner (if x3 stays low, 1 can pass to them for the open shot)
Once 3 gets out of the lane, 5 screens x5.
5's goal is to completely take x5 out of the play.
When 5 sets the screen, this opens up the lane for 4 to cut to an open space.

Phase 2

Now, x3 must decide whether or not to take the best shooter on the floor (3) or the player cutting down the lane (4).
2 cuts behind the defense as a safety valve if nothing develops.
