One of the best plays of this type I saw was done by Shaunte Rogers for GW. Rogers was a 5'4" guard, and he got caught with his dribble picked up about 20-25 feet from the basket on the wing. He attempted a turnaround jumper in the face of his much larger opponent, then turned and immediately blocked out, keeping his opponent pinned on the basket side. He correctly anticipated that it would be an easy block, tossed it right up into his opponent to get it blocked, then recovered the ball when it bounded away from the basket into the area he sealed off. CREATIVE!

I saw something like this at a summer camp. PG dribbled into the trees in the lane, went up for the shot, realized he made a mistake & tossed the ball off the big guy's chest. He caught the ball before he hit the ground & dribbled back out. Very impressive!
