Elite Hoops Playset: Clippers
Even though the Clippers run ball screens with Chris Paul 90% and continue to let us down in crunch time, every now and then they draw up a set that is not all that bad. Many of the plays that are designed for this team cannot be run by many others because they do not have Blake Griffin, who can dunk off of one step from the free throw line, and Deandre Jordan, who can catch a lob at the top of the square off vert. Athleticism like this gives the Clippers the ability to be creative with how they attack the rim.

Below is a unique play designed by the Spurs that has been used during the past couple of weeks.

They have a very strong level of talent at all positions of the floor allowing them to run a wide variety of plays to get players the ball in many different places. "Chin" is one of the plays that was used in the national championship game to help UConn defeat Notre Dame.
