I have to admit, I had no idea what he was talking about with all the strategy stuff. Spain??? Starting around 12:30 of this clip.
I’m with you and didn’t follow all it but in a Spain screen action a big sets a middle ball screen at the top of the key while a guard/shooter sets a back screen on the big’s defender. Big rolls to the rim after screening and if the back screen is effective he has a path to the rim and ball handler gets him the ball. Simultaneously the guard/ shooter who set the back screen pops out to the three point line at the top and often gets an open look if his defender gets caught up taking away the roll man.I have to admit, I had no idea what he was talking about with all the strategy stuff.

A lot of our actions.
haha yeah, there are some basic patterns then they run a ton of options off of those.

RIP Gene HackmanI know this much: had Hickory run more Spain back in '54, they probably wouldn't have needed the picket fence.
Agree. Do you think he was also funking with the media a little bit, letting them know that they really don’t understand wtf is going on?Paint was having some fun with that answer.
What I took from it is that this is why it is so important to have coachable, intelligent players who can follow these adjustments and continue to play together as a cohesive unit. It is a lot easier said than done.
I'm so much smarter now, but I still feel dumb as rocks.Here's another pretty darn good breakdown here of Spain, Chin Action*, and more......en Inglés.
And....Chi-Boiler officially off the hook.
* the last Chin Action I could recall had something to with checking out all the tire manufacturers/retailers on the Islands.
This is pretty cool.
I’ve heard a lot of these terms and still not sure exactly what they all are but this provides context. We certainly adjust constantly
