Pick the Picker BLOB

This is a classic set that has gotten many teams layups over the years. The pick-the-picker action confuses the defense and leaves open opportunities at the rim.

First Screen

The play begins with 5 setting a screen for 3.
If 3 is open, 1 can make the pass to 3.

Pick the Picker

If 3 doesn't get it, they pop out to the corner.
As 5 was setting the screen earlier, 4 starts to work their way up to set a screen for 5.
This is called pick-the-picker because 4 is screening for the player who just set the screen. This makes it very difficult for x5 to guard everything well.
4 also slips to the rim for added rim pressure.

Inbound Options

If nothing is open, 2 cuts to a spot on the floor that is easy for 1 to inbound to. 2 is the safety valve.
