Icing ball screens

During the 11 episodes of HCBS's game analyses, he often talked about the team icing ball screens. From what he explained, it involves funneling the offensive player to the corners to they don't have a lot of space to work with in the middle of the floor.

I looked it up to read/see more about it. This video focuses on how teams can defend by icing ball screens and what the offense sometimes does to counter. The video is solid, but it's also cool, b/c there are disproportionate (in a good way) number of KU highlights, (albeit mostly against UNC-Greensboro from earlier this year -- not sure why). If you watch, hope you learn something.

That was excellent. Thanks.

My pleasure, hoshi.

And hoshi, while we're here , I was curious about your handle and the origin story. If you have shared that already on the RCB then my apologies for asking again.

Hoshi = Star in Japanese
Star = my surname in Italian
I am the son of two Italian immigrants and have made about 20 visits to Japan. When visiting my friends in Japan, my nickname is Hoshi.

Very cool! Thanks for sharing.
