Are you looking to improve your pick play game? If so, you're in luck! The Lottery Coach is here to help with 10 simple tips that will take your game to the next level.

1. Set a solid screen

The first step to a successful pick play is setting a solid screen. This means getting your body in the way of the defender and holding your ground. Don't let the defender push you out of the way or slip past you. A good screen will give your teammate space to get open for a shot.

2. Communicate with your teammate

Before running the pick play, it's important to communicate with your teammate about what you're going to do. This includes discussing where you're going to set the screen, how you're going to roll, and what your teammate should do after the pick.

3. Time your roll

The timing of your roll is crucial to the success of the pick play. You want to roll just as your teammate is coming off the screen. This will give them the space they need to get open for a shot.

4. Finish strong

Once you've rolled to the basket, it's important to finish strong. This means going up strong with the ball and making a decisive move to the basket. Don't be afraid to draw contact and get to the free throw line.

5. Be patient

Pick plays don't always work the first time. Sometimes you have to be patient and run the play multiple times before you get a good look. Don't get discouraged if the first few attempts don't work. Keep running the play and eventually you'll find success.

6. Practice makes perfect

The best way to improve your pick play game is to practice. The more you practice, the better you'll become at setting screens, communicating with your teammates, and timing your rolls. So find a partner and start practicing today.

7. Watch film

Watching film is a great way to learn from the best. Pay attention to how NBA players set screens, communicate with their teammates, and time their rolls. You can learn a lot by watching how the pros do it.

8. Get feedback

Ask your teammates, coaches, or friends for feedback on your pick play game. They can help you identify areas where you can improve. Be open to criticism and use it to make yourself a better player.

9. Stay positive

No matter how much you practice, there will be times when your pick plays don't work. Don't get discouraged. Stay positive and keep working hard. The more you practice, the better you'll become.

10. Have fun

Basketball is a game. So have fun with it! Don't take yourself too seriously and enjoy the process of learning and improving your game.
