1-4 High Backdoor

The counter to a defence that denies every wing: the ball goes into the elbow and the denied wing cuts straight behind his man for a layup. The high post is facing the rim with the whole lane in front of him, so the pass is a simple bounce.

Also called: high post backdoor, blind pig, backdoor off the elbow
