The sample consisted of the 9 games that took place between them during the Mundobasket 2006. In the 1528 cases which were registered, we analyzed all the Pick n’ Rolls according to 26 pre-estimated factors (form, court area, players combination, way of attack, attack player, shot area, way of defending Pick n’ Roll), to reveal all the comparing differences in the Pick n’ Roll application and the relation of Pick n’ Roll effectiveness and productivity. The statistical analysis package SPSS was used for the statistical analysis of the data, correlation analysis, classification (cluster) and Crosstabs command with χ2 (Chi-square) test. The results of the Crosstab analysis, revealed that there are statistically significant differences between the Greek and the other National Teams according to the use of Pick n’ Roll move in the offensive set plays and also according the offence efficacy and offence productivity. The Correlation analysis revealed extremely high interrelation between offence efficacy and shot area (p= -0,209(**) , α=0,01), and as far as offence productivity is concerned extremely high interrelation revealed first of all with the final shot player and secondly with the shot area ( p= -0,2877(**)α=0,01).
