Answer
Hi Ash,

I just sent you and answer from another one of your emails.

Pass to your teammate when they are open or have a better shot then you. If you have a 2 on 1 break and you have the ball, draw the defense to you and then pass the ball to your teammate for a layup. If the defense doesnt react to you when driving to the basket, then take the lay-up.
