The press isn't even playing up the nepotism angle. Is his son so weak he needs a boost. Is this an accepted practice now?

The ball is passed into the player in the middle in that case Zeke and he then dribbles or passes to one of the four guys in the each of the four corners or cutting from the corner to an open spot inside the box.

I believe that the Pistons use it on occasion. I have seen them use it with AJ playing the middle guy.

Re: Bobby Knight

Box +1 is a defense, Four Corners is an offense, made famous by Dean Smith.

Thanks for the correction.

At least I identified it. I just called it by the wrong name. LOL
