как делать pick-n-roll

Get wide when rotating, arms extended

In this situation, x5 would slide over. If 4 picks up his dribble on the baseline x4 and x5 should trap him there. x3 rotates down to protect the basket, and x1 wants to get into a position where he can see x3's man and take away a skip pass to his man.

The key to any rotation is not to get beat in the first place. But if it happens players must be in their "get to rim" positions on the help (weak) side.

DEFENSIVE ROTATION ON A BASELINE (WING) DRIVE

Note: we front the ball side low post. When the post player is on the block.

We teach our players to "GET TO RIM" while giving weak side help. This means that x3 and x5 need to have one foot even on the imaginary line that separates ball and weak side. We do not want to be "hugging are man" on the weak side. All players should be talking when giving help.

On the pass, x2 and x4 jump to the ball, x1 takes the ball.

When playing any defense it is important to "jump to the ball" on every pass. If you are guarding the ball, and you do not jump to the ball on the pass, the offensive player can cut in front of the defender for a basket cut. Do not let anyone cut in front of your face.

From here x2 will play 2 "straight up," but x2 still cannot let 2 get into the lane.

Defensive stance from the corners of the court.

x2 will force 2 towards the corner of the floor. He cannot let 2 take the dotted angle towards the basket. x2 cannot let 2 get into the center of the floor. Too many bad things will happen if 2 penetrates from the middle of the court. This follows the concept of keeping the ball to one side of the floor.

Defensive stance from the wing.

If the offensive player goes off the block then we play behind the post.

Fronting the post. We front the post when the ball is below the foul line extended and the offensive player is on the block (player 5). If the ball goes above the foul line extended then we three quarter the post with an arm and leg. Remember you should have weak side help against any lob pass.

Here x1 denies the ball reversal pass from 2 to 1.

"50" starts with ball pressure and communication. All five defenders must be talking. Hands are active looking for deflections and we must keep the ball out of the center of the floor. We want to "fan out" to a side and then keep the ball at that side. Once the "strong or ball" side has been established we will deny any ball reversals.

Every defense will have man to man principles, and the concepts of NO PENETRATION, NO OPEN LOOKS, AND NO FOULS are vital to the "50"
