      It depends on what team I'm using. I Princeton Chin with the 02-03 Nets. But also I use Philly Elbow with the current Sixers. Current Bulls I use Flow. One my favorites is Utah Motion. It's so simple. You get a lot of open attack angles with that one.

      But you got to mix it up. Users start to pick up on the starting points if your offense. I love using Princeton Chin vs a zone defense. With the center standing right in the middle. It's going to be a mid range jumper all night long.

      Hilarious that Reddit is just finding this out. My guess is someone faced me in the last month and went digging LMFAO jk

        I bet there are lobs all day when you run it with J Kidd..

        I’m trying to find a freelance that has as much back cutting and dives as the Warriors. I love all the natural movement, but I don’t want Duncan sitting at the 3pt line, lol

          Freelances are interesting; while you can get a general idea of what each does from reading up you really have to sit down with the game for an hour or two and really dig into them to find all the different trigger points and the actions they generate to get a good feel for them. I feel like once you can find one or two that work for you and master them you're good to go against most people.

            Which Tim? I've also been playing with 97-98 Spurs. I just stick with 3 out. Too much rebounding to have the twin towers that far away from the rim.

            But if you're playing with the other Tim Duncans (where he's the center and you have a stretch 4). I'd check out Philly Elbow or Boston Motion 14. Both spread the floor and put them on the elbow. But have plenty of back cuts to open up play. Especially for that mid range jumper.

              Tim Thomas of course, lol

              but wow man, Philly Elbow is amazing vs off ballers…Great activation points too.

              Got me a look right off the bat here

                  Ayyy, a thread that’s not complaining about the game! Who knew it was possible 😲😏

                  I use the Point freelance exclusively. I’m a big fan of The System (Westhead LMU/Arsenault Grinnell) and use the Point freelance as a numbered break. I run very few pick and rolls. Try to get the coast to coast layup with a quick point guard first, then flow into the double staggered screen for a shooter, etc. I shoot over half my shots from 3. It’s a ton of fun, really.

                    Yeah freelance can be used just for the spacing, in addition to scoring opportunities. Most people online seem to use freelance just to get the spacing they want.

                    Series' are really good but it can throw off your spacing.
                    Lineup:
                    PG) Gary Payton
                    SG) '95-'96 Michael Jordan
                    SF) Sapphire Scottie Pippen
                    PF) '95-'96 Dennis Rodman
                    C) Hakeem Olajuwon

                      I love 21 Delay. Great for running shooters off of screens, great for passing bigs from the foul line, and perfect for slashing guards.


                      I always get a great look when the ball goes to the strong side corner and the big sets a screen for the other wing standing at the 3 point line / elbow extended.

                        Re: What freelances are you running?

                        I remember I thought this was 21 delay. But realized it's not lol. It's just plain out 4 out 1 in.



                        And that's with the bench! When I run that with KD, Kyrie or Harden at the time. It's deadly. It's really sad more people don't use freelance. They rather just Dribble around for 24 seconds.

                          Re: What freelances are you running?

                          Is there somehow a reliable freelance to prevent a center cutting out to threepoint line, if he is not able to hit those (e.g. a team with Gobert, Capela etc.) ?

                            I've been running the post-trade Nets and I'm in love. Putting Ben Simmons at the 5 with 4 shooters around him in 21-delay is almost a cheat code.


                            What offense is that in your clip?

                              4 out 1 in. That DHO right into a pick and roll is a killer. If that's KD is a dunk about 90 of the time. If not I give you a sharp crossover [emoji23].

                              Example A (not the same. But you get the drift)



                              I'm going to have to try this Ben Simmons at the 5. Holy **** I never thought of that.
