Two Man to Man Sets
 
These two plays are run by Mercer University, but I found them on the Marquette Coach to Coach site.
 
Both plays are diagrammed and are also on YouTube videos if your server allows you to access YouTube.
 
In my opinion, on the first play, you should decide if you are looking to post 5 or allow 3 to drive.  In the video, 5 stops short and allows 3 to get to the basket, but 5's defender blocks the shot.  One idea would be to have 5 cut above the block on the opposite side of the drive for a dump down pass if Defensive #5 moves to help on the drive.
 
Either way, hopefully one of these two plays will give you an idea that will work with your personnel.
