Set Plays

"what kind of book is that," said Walker with anticipation in his eyes.

[Check the gift section, and you will know] the system answered.

Walker opened the gift section and found that there was a book, then he clicked on it, and the information about the book appeared.

[Set Plays LV1 Unique]

Walker read the book description and found that it was divided into three levels beginner, intermediate, and pro.

When Walker opened the book, he found that only the beginner part was unlocked, and the other two were locked.

"why are the other two levels of the book are locked," said Walker with a little bit of agitation in his voice.

[they are locked because your level is still low to understand that kind of plays] the system explained

"isn't the book just at Lv1 like me," Walker asked

[there is a difference the book is Unique Lv1] the system said

"What the difference?" Walker asked

[that means that book could be upgraded] the system said

"so the two other levels will be unlocked eventually but how the book will be upgraded?"Walker asked

[the book will be upgraded if you reach a certain level] the system answered

"which level should I reach so the book could be upgraded," said Walker

[You need to reach level 3 to unlock the intermediate level of the book and level 6 to unlock the pro level of the book] the system said

When Walker heard what was required from him to unlock the book, he was shocked, but it made sense since he never been a part of any set play in his freshman in high school or middle school because his athleticism was enough for the competition they were facing.

The only time they used set plays it's when he was off the court, so he never got the chance to be a part of a set play, because he was basically a one-man show.

Walker liked the role of one man show at first because he was eager to help his mother, and when he heard the praise that the coach in middle school gave him after the tryouts, the approval gave him the confidence to continue to chase this dream.

What he didn't expect that due to the way the coaches were using him to draw a discord between him and other team members.

When Walker wasn't on the court, the game was more fun, and he wanted to have that kind of fun, but he didn't have the chance.

Walker wakes up from his daze and starts checking the content of the beginner level of the set plays book.

Walker saw the title of the first group of set Plays under the name 3-on-3 Plays.

When Walker saw the title of the first group of set Plays, he was happy because this plays will help them in the tournament.

Walker clicked on the first play, and a video starts showing walker how the play is executed, and after that, he starts reading information about it.

[Give and Go: The give and go involves a V-cut by O2 to receive the pass. O1 makes a fake step left and then a quick lane cut for the pass and lay-up.]

Walker thought it was a simple play to execute on the court, but since he didn't have the chance to do such a simple set play, he wasn't so sure if he could execute it well so, he watched the video again before he moved to the next play.

Walker watched the video of how to execute the next play, and after he saw how it was executed, he knows that this play was going to be good for Z who loved to catch Ally-Opps then Walker clicked to see more information about the play.

[Pick and Roll: O2 sets an "on-ball" screen for O1.

The pick and roll work if O2 seals the X1 defender correctly.]

Walker continues watching the other play, and he found that they got a little difficult and that they need a lot of on-ball and off-ball movement.

After he finished watching, he took a pen and started drawing the plays he saw, because he needs to practice them with Z and Isiah.

Walker finished drawing those plays, then he called both Z and Isiah to meet him in the court where they usually practice.

15 min later…

Z and Isiah reached the court and saw Walker dribbling the ball, and both of them frowned.

"What the hell man you just came back from the doctor and told you to rest and here you are dribbling the ball," said Z with angry in his tone

"are you stupid why are you calling us to caught you going against the doctor orders," said Isiah

"I think he hit his head hard he became stupid," said Z

Walker saw the two scoldings him for no apparent reason, he was dribbling the ball with his left hand, and the doctor said that I shouldn't use my right wrist in any activity, but he was happy that he has friends that care for his well being.

"I was just dribbling the ball with my left hand, and I'm not that stupid to call you here to caught me red-handed," said Walker

When they heard what Walker said they saw that he has wrist brace on his right hand, and he was just dribbling the ball with his left hand both Z and Isiah calmed down.

"then why did you call us," said Z

"It's about tomorrow's game since I will not be able to shot so, I thought of using set plays," said Walker

"Set Plays?" Asked Isiah

"it's tactics and Plans to score easy points," said Z

"so I called the two of you here to practice some them," said Walker

"I know some of them but never got the chance to execute them due to me changing schools," said Z

"It's okay I didn't also had the chance so let's work on them together we may use them tomorrow," said Walker

"Okay let's do it," said Z and Isiah

Walker and his friends start discussing the plays and trying them to prepare for tomorrow's game.
