i like your videos better than others because you actually have an actor to help show what the defender does. Most bball vloggers dont do that. AND you have slo- mo shots which really help us out! good job mang!
This is not helpful because you are assuming the defender is playing you tight...what happens if they give you space and play you for the drive, you still have to make the jumper
thanks for the tips. Could you maybe do a video on how to deal with handchecking? Some nasty defender could put a lot of force through their forearms to slow you down, but it's hard to tell from the outside and call it a foul.
Attacking the defender's top foot and staying tight to him is a great way to get layups at the rim over taller defenders. Staying close to your defender's hip after getting past him prevents the defender from recovering and blocking the shot because you have closed off his space to move freely and get back in front. I am 5 ft 8 and I have been having a lot of success finishing at the rim over taller defenders. Also one thing about staying tight is keeping the ball low so you can use your off hand to beat the defender's hand check or him trying to poke at the ball. One thing to be aware of is that long defenders will try to stick their top foot out to force you to go by them at a wider degree so they can have a chance to get back in front.
Wow first video i seen and this is good and not only one on one its helpful in one on one but its mainly for just man coverage defense where if u play free for all or a real team it could help and its realllly helpful wow im subscribing but like u can get pass one player then sauce another player or pull up
great video i love attacking the high foot--it gets a little harder i've noticed when im playing someone who is say 6'6 and i try to attack their high foot b/c of their shoulder span u sometimes have to drive a little wider than ud like (im only 5'8). ive also noticed when i play defense, i don't allow the space alex is giving you here so that my high foot can't be attacked. good shit man, thx for the vid
My friend recently had begun challenging me to basket When he is bored in recess and he is 182 while Im 174. He completely recks me so i hope this Helps.
Coach, please answer this so I'm 101 pounds 5'10 and my defender is 142 pounds 5'8, He playa like heavy heavy Defense, he doesn't let me get pass the 3 line, he justs pressed against me at all times, I run around the court but he is always there, please tell me how to get past him or him off me for a second
I have really tried the first one on my cousin whose bigger than me, when I drive through his high foot his reaction was late so I lay it up but he kinda block it just a little but it goes in..
