Do you have any suggestions on how we can combat that? Thanks!

Run a dribble handoff right before half court to give some misdirection and run the ball in the opposite direction. I hope this helps!

But you can do drills in practice where you (a coach) can defend the cutter. Sometimes defend well, and sometimes not, and have the passer read the passing lane to see if it's open.

On ball screens typically don’t fare as well against zones because zones are already prepared to switch whenever the player enters their “zone.” They work great against man because even if they are well defended, you can cause switches, which will create mismatches. So, while on ball screens do have their place against zones, they don’t do as well as they do against man.

Hi Coach, great videos! I have run 1-3-1 for many years but find it requires very specific personnel (specifically the top and bottom defender). My current team usually has 2 "bigs" and 3 guards on the floor most times and have found it difficult to find a position for the 2nd "big". We've been going with the 3-2 lately and have found it successful. It seems easier to run with our personnel and less tiring (we run zone for about 60% of the game, M2M the rest of the time). What are your thoughts on which zone defense you prefer and in practice which are you using more often (1-3-1, 3-2, 2-3)? What level are you coaching (I am senior girls HS). Thanks!

Thanks for the question! I coach high school boys at the freshmen level. Of course, the best zone for a team to run depends on their personnel. If I had my pick with the perfect players, I love the 131. However, you are right in that you need very specific players to run the top and bottom of it. I've only used it a few years when I had the right kids. Otherwise, I do like the 122 (pretty much the same as 32) because it's a great pressure defense. My least favorite is the 23, although it's the easiest to teach and run properly, and you don't really need any specific skillset to play it. I would also agree that with the team you are describing, I would avoid the 131 this year. The 32 sounds like a great option!

Coach, I tried running this a few years back with our Girls Varsity team. However, the problem I kept running into was that when we used the away screens the lane would get clogged because the wing's defender (when opposite slot had the ball) was two passes away and had a foot in the lane. So when we went to screen her, there was not much room to curl around because the 5's defender was also in the lane. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Maybe a pin down instead of a curl? Or something involving the 5? Appreciate the help.
@CoachMarcHensley
@CoachMarcHensley 2 жыл бұрын
Hey Michael, good question. I have definitely seen other teams do that on defense. The best way to combat it is with outside shooting! Instead of curling around the screen, you can run a pin down and get a good look at a 3. Of course, we are not always blessed with good shooters. Another option would be instead of away screen at the top, run a down screen for the 5 to get her the ball at the top. Then have that screener set another back door screen on another player. I hope that helps!

Hey Isaiah, if your opponents don't attack the corners, they will have no chance against this defense if you run it correctly. However, if you don't feel as though your players can do these rotations, you can simplify it by not having the wings rotate down to the blocks at all. I wouldn't suggest this though. If they can't run this the way it should be ran, I would suggest another zone, possible a 3-2 or a 1-2-2.

Otherwise I would think that would be a horrible offense to run against a 1-3-1. The 1-3-1 offense is only really vulnerable in the corners, so if the offense doesn’t put people there, they are going to struggle getting shots off. However if the 1-3-1 isn’t working for you against this for whatever reason, I would try switching to a 1-2-2 zone against that offense. I hope this helps!

This is by far the easiest to teach and best offense play against these two defenses. I love this! I applied it to my 13 year old team and it made it so much easier for us to get good looks and it gave the kids more confidence with discipline of course. I took myself and five of my good friends i play ball with and brought them to my practice and ran a high 1-2-2 half court press and played defense on my guys seriously. They were a little nervous at first because of who they were playing. But after running it for about 30 minutes they either scored or got fouled to go to the free throw line 7 times in a row. I told them at the end of practice if y’all can do that against us here in practice it will be easy for y’all to work this offense against kids y’all age. The very next game we played a team who ran a 3-2 zone. We ran this play got up 5. Then i told my point guard to hold the ball right when you pass the half court line and make them play defense. As soon as the defender came up the middle was open then the defense shifted up on the middle and the corners cut and we got a layup. This is again just a smart and awesome basketball play! Hell it even works against a 2-3 at the younger age cause kids be so anxious to play defense and over shift which leaves the wings open for a shot after the pass from middle or after the pass from middle to the wing, the middle drops down and posts middle man for the wing to dump it right back down on a give and go pass.
