Avoid a trap 2. Score 3. Improve passing angle When dribbling, be in a comfortable athletic stance, dont get to low Guard shooting - Left foot forward (right handed shooters) when receiving the pass, step into balance right foot Never miss a shot the same way twice Need to talk on the floor Make drills a competition If you get fouled in practice, shoot the FT Have to teach the kids to want to pass

Change all of the moves with a jumps stop but do not stop your dribble. 2 Ball vs. Defense Defender plays solid defense, however; not necessarily trying to steal the ball, just wants to work the offensive player side to side. Offensive player works back and forth only using pull back dribble. 1 on 3 Full Court Ball Handling Offensive player is simply trying to get by all 3 defender in succession. First defender covers baseline to top of the 3 point line. Second defender covers 3 point line to half court.

Position Closeouts Coach starts with a ball on the wing with another coach on the top of the key. Player is in weak side position (2 feet in the paint). Ball gets rotated to the top; player is now closes out to gap position (Not on his man). Ball goes to the wing and the player closes out to the ball 1-on-1 live. Closeout Jump to the Ball Coach has the ball on the wing with an offensive player on the lane line. Defensive player starts on the block. Coach passes the ball to the offensive player.

SDSU Mens Basketball Defensive Principles / Rebounding Techniques

General Notes
-Look at off/def ratios effects ----- it is all about the numbers - Rebounding effects possessions (need to have heart, not size) - Toughness as coaches and parents, we are not hard enough on our kids. We need to prepare them to deal with tough times in life. - Number of FTA/FTM in a game * Fouls happen in the paint (drives, post entry) * This effects your defense, keep it out of the paint * Dont foul them when the ball is on the floor - We need to be physical bullies on the floor --- out tough them In order play hard in a game, you need to practice hard To be a good defensive team 1. Take care of the ball on offense 2. Force low shooting percentage (pack defense or pressure denial). You need to select a style that will force the lowest points per possession of the other team. Need to become comfortable with being uncomfortable Will you sacrifice yourself for your teammates? Jump to the ball or back screens will kill you Shots from the wing, baseline usually will go long on the back end Must read: Jay Bilas Mental Toughness Need to know what your philosophy is ---- Winning vs. Teaching Cant feel sorry for yourself

Defensive Closeouts - Defense rolls the ball out to the offense located at the wing - Defense closes out on the offense - Live 1 on 1 - Keep score (example, foul = +2) - Alternate sides - Winners dont have to run

Shell Drill (1) Jumping the ball - Emphasize jumping to the ball - 3 teams of 4 - All players need to jump to the ball when it is being passed - Designate a shooter as the ball is passed around the perimeter * Once the shot goes up, you play live 4 on 4 * Defense has to get the ball to get out * If offense gets the ball, continue to play live - Keep rotating in and out w/ teams Note: players need to turn their hips and sprint to help position Shell Drill (2) Give and go cuts - Offensive players should try and score on a give and go when they pass * If you dont get the ball on the give and go cut, pop back out * Defense needs to jump the ball in order not to get a face cut

Shell Drill (3) Flash - Person 1 pass away always flashes in and then flashes out - Defense needs to stay in HELP when the offense flashes out
O3 X3 X4 O2 X2 X1 O1 O4

Shell Drill (4) Live - Offense needs to try to get into the paint - Defense can NOT allow the offense to get into the paint Note: When players start moving, it is harder to be in correct help position. You could be denying 1 second and then another second you need to be in help position under the hoop. - Hard to know who is going to help Key: Need to know where the ball is

X4 O4 X2 O2 X1 O1

4 on 4 on 4 Rebounding - Defense stop = +1 and stay on Defense - Offense turn over = -1 - Offense rebound = +2 -Defensive charge = +5 - Foul = -1

Power Ball - Go by points scored - Charges = +5 - Everyone becomes an offensive player on the miss (if the defense gets a rebound, they go right back up to get a put back) - The team that scores can keep scoring until the other team gets the ball

Bo Ryan
Wisconsin Mens Basketball Swing Offense / Transition Defense

General Notes
The first thing we talk about is transition defense Why? 1. Best defense is 5 vs. 5, transition defense helps you meet that Our opponents hold the ball longer on offense than we do After a poor shot, usually a foul will take place in transition defense Good shot selection helps transition defense Transition defense is a mindset Our goal is to be last in shot blocks If you are jumping to block shoots, you increase your chances of 1. Fouling 2. Being out of position for the dump pass in transition 3. Being out of position for rebounding Cant get back seconds lost in transition defense ---- need to sprint Have to be willing to take a charge Assistant coaches you are always 2 technicals away from being the head coach
First Guy Back - Do not stand under the hoop * Cant pick up the charge ---- step in front of the hoop - Shade toward the ball - Do not give up the lay-up Second Guy Back - Engage the ball - Make him give the ball up

X1

X1

1st and 2nd Guy Rotations (1) ----- Engaging the ball - Top defender needs to drop when ball is in the air - Bottom defender takes 1st pass when 1st player is being engaged by the top defender

Defending the Lob in Transition -Key: dropping defender needs to Engage the person receiving the lob before he gets he pass * If you engage once he leaves the floor, it will be a foul * Stay on the floor and get tall (arms up straight) --- dont NOT leave the floor

X1 O3 O2 X2
Intercept

O1

3rd Man Down In Transition / 4th and 5th Man Down - Needs to come to ball side guard * Why? To many times in transition offense, the ball gets kicked to the wing and then gets reversed back to the point. A lot of the time, the reversal pass is so robotic, the wing passer does not even look to see if anyone is coming in defensive transition and you can intercept that pass. - 4th and 5th man down locate shooters -Keys: 1. Get wings covered on the 1st pass 2. 3rd guy down covers ball reversal 3. 4th and 5th guys down locate shooters

X3

Transition Defense Drills: 3-0 Weave into 2-on-1 Break - 3 lines on the baseline, ball starting in the middle - 3 players do a 3 man weave down the length of the court - The person who makes the assist becomes the defender in transition defense - The other 2 are offense in transition back the other way Offensive Key: 1. Do not settle for jumpers 2. Do not pass the ball East and West, the defense does not have to move with East and West passes Defensive Key: 1. Do not give up lay-ups, force a jumper 2. Do not stand under to hoop (cant take a charge)

Transition Defense Drills: 5-0 Weave into 3-on-2 Break - 5 players do a 5 on 0 weave down the length of the court for a lay-up - The person who made the assist is the first defender back - The person who makes the lay-up is the 2nd defender back - 1st man needs to engage the ball

Transition Defense Drills: 6 Man Drill - Coach numbers the players - Coach calls out a number of 1 of the defensive players - The players number called out needs to sprint to the baseline and then sprint back into defensive transition Example: 1. Coach calls out 2 which = X2 2. Coach throws out the ball for the offense to get and go into offensive transition 3. The persons number who was 4. 3rd guy down needs to come to the ball side guard

X2 O2 X1 O1

O3 X3 C

Search and Destroy - Coach calls out a defensive number (X2) - Player needs to freeze until the ball gets across half court - Coach throws the ball out, and the offense goes in transition - The 2 defenders who are not Froze sprint back in transition defense first person back gets to the rim, second player back engages the ball - 3rd person back comes ball side guard - Play 3 on 3 live if no transition basket is scored

General Notes Take bits and pieces from clinics add them to your own program Why Run High Low 1. Control tempo and ball ---- play off of the pass 2. Dont have to worry about where the ball is entered 3. Spacing ---- post isolations 4. Take what the defense gives you 5. Run it as your break offense 6. Great pressure release Motion Absolutes 1. Push the defender up the lane if fronted 2. Bury defense if played behind 3. Leg whip to seal for dump pass Punch Pass = Fake pass and go opposite of fake with a pass --- gets help defense to bit Cant always coach the same way Have to adapt to your players, yet stay within your philosophy Areas of the floor - 2 side: has 2 guards on that side of the floor - 1 Single side: has 1 guard on that side of the floor - Sweet spot = high post flash area - Cheat step (post flash) * Step across the defense * Throw ball to outside hand

Single Side
