Viral Defensive Video
I'm sure we've all seen the viral clip of a coach teaching to cross your feet and run to beat the offensive player to the spot. I'm curious everyone's thoughts on this topic?

I get where he was coming from, he just presented in the wrong manner. Basketball is an art. If a move is effective, you’ve put the reps in, and it fits your game,own it. Defense or offense. The more tools the better. Growing up, I thought there was only one right way to play. In reality, there are a lot of ways to be successful. Find what works for you & master it

The win is the space itself. Coaches, athletes, trainers, and to learn from a high level trainer has been great.

Great question! I would say Pace w/ install of Change of direction dribble moves. I find players that I train can make a layup or jump shot but never have the chance because their movement with the ball is poor. So helping them establish better dribble timing while improving their body movement can lead to more scoring opportunities. Then we personalize it by adding their own pace and rep reads.

@Daniel Cooper i keep it simple. One I’ve experimented with is placing 4 cones in a row. I’ll have my beginners dribble to it and then go and I’ll change the speed at each cone. That’s when i typically fill dribble moves to focus on a hang dribble 2 dribble, 3, etc. sometimes i just go step by step breaking down speed stops, punch dribbles, etc.

Defensive drill 🚨
One of my go-to drills for developing on-ball defense off the catch. ✅ Footwork ✅ Physicality ✅ Reaction ✅ Agility ✅ Body control You can manipulate the constraints to target exactly what your athlete needs. Here we forced athletes to stay facing a specific direction. King of the court scoring system. First to 3! What defensive constraint would you add to make this drill even more game-like?
