Pinch-Post Blind Pig Counter – Beat Wing Denial

The triangle's classic answer to wing denial. The Pinch-Post Blind Pig Counter (call: "Blind Pig") flashes your post to the high elbow, lets the overplaying defender bite on a fake, and hits the backdoor cutter in stride. If help collapses on the cut, the post seals inside for a high-low pass.

What's Inside

• Frame 1, High Elbow Flash: 5 flashes to the elbow and catches while 3 fakes high to invite the denial
• Frame 2, Backdoor Strike (primary look): 3 plants and cuts backdoor; 5 hits him with a one-touch bounce pass
• Frame 3, High-Low Seal Counter (secondary action): 3 clears, 4 seals his defender on the block, and 5 throws the high-low pass
• Game-day keys: shot clock phase (12 to 5 seconds), the primary trigger, and the defensive counter
• Diagram key and coach's notes page

When to Call It

Against pressure defenses that deny the wing pass, or any time a defender is playing the passing lane instead of his man. The more they overplay, the easier the backdoor.
