Purpose: We Will Run The ICE Action When We Are Not Able To Get The Ball To The Center At The Top Of The Key.
Warrior: ICE
This Is Where Everyone Should Be At The Start Of Warrior.
PG Passes To SF or SG, Then Calls ICE
If We Cannot Get The Ball To The Center, The Point Guard Needs To Swing The Ball To Either The Shooting Guard Or Small Forward. Then The Point Guard Will Call Out “ICE!”
SF
In The ICE Action Either The Small Forward Or Shooting Guard Will Start With The Ball In Their Hands. Let’s Go Over ICE With The Small Forward First!
PF Moves To Left Corner
Once ICE Is Called, The Power Forward Needs To WAIT Until The Point Guard Passes The Ball To The Small Forward. Then, The Power Forward Is Going To Relocate To The Left Corner Of The Three Point Line.
C Sets Back Screen For SF
The Center Needs To WAIT Until The Power Forward Moves To The Corner. Then, The Center Will Set A Back Screen On The Defender In Front Of The Small Forward.
SF Drives, C Shuffles Back To Top Of Key
Once The Center Sets That Screen, The Small Forward Needs To Drive To The Basket. At The Same Time, After The Screen The Center Needs To Shuffle Back To Her Initial Spot At The Top Of The Key. Point Guards, Move From The Top Of The Three To The Left Wing Where The Small Forward Previously Was.
SF Reads
Small Forwards, If The Layup Isn’t Open Because The Defender Steps Up To Guard You, That Means The Center Should Be Open. Pass It To The Center Who Is Back At The Top Of The Key & Once The Center Receives That Pass, Shoot It.
Essentially, When The Small Forward Drives, That Defender Has To Choose Between Stopping The Drive, Or Guarding The Center At The Top Of The Key.
SF Reads (Continued)
So If The Center Is Open, Pass It To The Center & The Center Needs To Shoot It.
SF Reads (Continued)
However, If The Small Forward Drives And The Defender Moves To Guard The Center, Then You Should Have An Open Layup.
SF Reads (Continued)
So Either The Small Forward Will Have The Layup, Or The Center Will Have The Open Shot At The Top Of The Key. It Is Up To The Small Forward To Make The Right Read Once You Drive To The Basket.
Shooting Guards
Now Let’s Go Over The ICE Action Again, But With The Shooting Guard!
PG Passes To SG, PF To RIGHT Corner
Once ICE Is Called, The Power Forward Needs To WAIT Until The Point Guard Passes The Ball To The Shooting Guard. Then, The Power Forward Is Going To Relocate To The RIGHT Corner Of The Three Point Line.
C Sets Back Screen For SG, SG Drives
The Center Needs To WAIT Until The Power Forward Moves To The Corner. Then, The Center Will Set A Back Screen On The Defender In Front Of The Shooting Guard.
Then As The Shooting Guard Drives, The Center Will Shuffle Back To Their Original Spot At The Top Of The Key, And The Point Guard Will Shuffle To The Right Wing Where The Shooting Guard Previously Was.
SG Reads
Once The Center Shuffles Back To The Top Of The Key, It’s The Same Read As Before.
SG Reads (Continued)
If The Defender Steps Up To Stop The Drive, Pass It To The Center At The Top Of The Key.
SG Reads (Continued)
That Should Leave The Center With An Open Shot.
SG Reads (Continued)
However If The Defender Moves Up To Guard The Center….
SG Reads (Continued)
That Should Leave An Open Layup For The Shooting Guard!
