Thank you, finally after 15 years when I played in middle school I understand what my coach meant when he kept complimenting me on "setting up a pick"

It's better if the screen rolls facing the ball or roll in instead of rolling out

At 1:28 the attacker points to the ground, there's a clear intention of asking for a screen. Why is this not mentioned in the video?

[DariciaArrindell]

[MrHannaiah]

[joycemilitar]

[ripper]

Can you screen someone when the enemy has the ball? Cause a lot of my enemy's been doing that and it feels kinda illegal.

[Overjoyed_sharky]

[ianowens]

Nobody explained this to me and it is my first time on a team, they only explained how and not why
