Pick & Roll Defense

A "Must Master" Part of Your Defense 

With the Pick & Roll being such an important part of all offenses in today's game, it has become imperative to have a consistent and simple defensive plan so your team can go into every game knowing there's a great chance to consistently stop the opponent's Pick & Rolls.

The system has to be sound in the five basic parts of the defense:

1. the player guarding the ball and how he adjusts his position to be the aggressor
2. the player guarding the pick setter so that he is always in the proper position to re-route the ball
3. the communication system
4. the protection behind the two players in the Pick & Roll -- so critical to the success or failure
5. the rotations out of the Pick & Roll action -- but how to keep from having to rotate so that like sizes stay on like sizes

I have seen teams try to employ 5 and 6 different coverages, often resulting in their being average in all of them.  Most detrimental is being tentative because there's no consistency.  

I want to introduce you to the system that most all championship calibre NBA teams employ.  It's the most detailed Pick & Roll Defensive DVD out there, and the beauty is that all levels will find it useful, from high school up to the highest level NBA teams.  It is based on soundness, simplicity and success.
