Golden State vs. Sacramento – Offensive Analysis – Dribble Handoffs

You won’t see more dribble hands offs in a playoff series combined than you will watching the Warriors and Kings. The hand off, when combined with elite spacing, allows the the offense to increase its speed while creating indecision for the defense. If the defender goes under, it’s a shot or re-screen. If the defender trails, it’s a curl and attack. If the defense sits in the drop coverage, this triggers the mid range pull up or attack the rim to put the big on his heels. If help comes, it’s a kick for the open three.
