Here’s a couple more I picked up: 1. If someone is driving baseline on you then make sure your body is straddling the baseline. If they go through you it’s a charge, or they’ll back out and have to reset. 2. Always guide the the dribbler towards the help or the out of bounds line. The outbound line is also a defender, use it. 3. Always be moving, the easiest person to defend is the guy that is just standing around. Stay Focused!

@@GandaIf Hood rules, if someone is bleeding & heads to their vehicle or bag, scatter! Be a better friend, call your fouls, play inside instead of on concrete & have a ref. Use inteagy, that's the Airman way. You know when you get beat off the dribble & start fouling with your hands, stop doing that, play safe so you all can play forever.

Another underrated one is when on defense, look at the ball handlers eyes, i get plenty of mid-pass steals that way

[@saido4178]

Yeah but only if ur a help side. I also get alot of steals by reading the pg. Also what do u guys prefer when ur defending the one with the ball, looking at their body or their head/eyes?

Yep, you hv to look how each player plays & their skill level...also beware of the others to see what they doing while you checking them b4 they make their move. My brother was good at the out of bound play.

[@elijahmedina3276]

I stopped doing number 3 because the reverse was invented

[@TheRealClipit1]

If you're riding the defenders hip they'll most likely go for a bump lay, nobody is going to go for a reverse if they have to go through you to get it. So just before they go for the shot you rotate around them and go for the block

[@Goodvibes-1229]

Thank you. This will help me a lot. I have nationals this week, and I will definitely use these

[@bibo5505]

Number 3 is something everyone should be taught. You block so many shots that way and forces them to stop being so carefree causing them to either tire themselves more or miss more shots

[@josesanta414]

It might work once or twice but generally creating contact and not opening up the lane is the better defense. Against bad players number 3 might work well but as soon as you get to a higher level youll get embarrassed. There are so many counters. Mid layup pump fake, off-foot, front rim, reverse. If he switches behind me believe that i will slow down on my last step and keep him there for an extended layup.

[@evanwells849]

Keeping them to their bad hand is one of the first things coaches say, and it works wonders for your game, its such an easy thing to know as well, so everyone can use it

[@waynebruce24893]

#3 is great against a lot of people, but most times when you go to the other side of the body they'll just protect the basket and use the opposite hand to finish. In this case, the guy laying up the ball will just switch the ball to his left and draw a foul.

That strong hand tip is good and alot of defenders has done it to me and its annoying if they double one way to get out is in and out and push ur self to get out, or double cross if theres enough space and then squeeze thru.😂

[@Yusipaybo]

Yoo the last one lowkey is so good

[@harlemm6047]

#4- Bigs are taught to check the middle first. 90% of the court is in the middle. That one is gonna get you beat in games Forcing baseline- you should be one area length away and the other hand should be on the hip. I’m spinning on you every time, not switching hands. Good ‘tricks’ but we don’t teach these in D1 or the over seas players. Get In proper position and use your body. No reaching or flying over the back side for a block. Love your videos :)

[@Retro061]

I’m going to use 3

Bro forgot the there’s always a Kyrie Irving on the court always 😭those are the ones the is hard to figure them out 😭💀

Definitely taking all these tips

[@OliHuxtable69420]

and number 3 u could also stand still, it’ll be a charge and the point wont count.

[@Incontrollable9]

As a player that's always focused on defense myself here's how the offense might counter these moves. 1) they just won't be idiotic and actually ready for the next play and make a strong pass away from the defense of wait for you to clear out (I don't really try to get that steal or many at all, I'm a big) 2) They'll stumble back if you begin to make too much contact and will get a foul call a lot even when you shouldn't get one, just have to be aware of it. The other way they'll counteract is hesitation if they are a good ball handler 3) Pretty simple shot fake or a reverse layup as you are changing sides, it's a high risk high reward play you are trying to make (I prefer to stay in-between them and the rim and block it slightly after they release) 4) if they are a bad passer then there isn't much counterplay they'll try other than picking up the ball, which is a positive for you anyways, just don't try this against a good passer because you might have just given up a layup

[@Jaskaran_Singhhh]

[@hezijezee]

A thing I picked up from Marcus Smart, if your guarding the ball handler, don’t go for the steal at random points, watch the ball, and when you see the ball start to go down, reach, high chance you could get it

[@taplerdsd]

The 1st one only works if your playing full and have teammates

[@owenvega598]

Number 2 and 4 are clutch in game 😂

[@jeremiahguzman6866]

[@Sir_Aurelius]

Note: these do not work on experienced players.

[@enginestart3009]

most effective. if they keep scoring on you,smack them full force for a very hard foul. this might only work once a game. lol

[@thedudewhoasked.]

💀🌚

[@Omnivoid22]

Angle them or what i called it. You shade then to their weak side. So you have a strong right hand player cut off the roght and force them left. I mean all this stuff is pretty basic stuff but useful for those that dont know or taught

[@Yaboidori1]

I’m using this tomorrow at school when I play basketball 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

[@magnadragox]

The second one would mostly only work once on good players they would just do a double behind the back and catch you reaching

[@malmono173]

If somebody does number 3 on you then go for a inside hand finish

[@domination4892]

Or double pump

@@krys8494 not really, if you’re playing against someone that is even decent at basketball they can make you look dumb. As an offensive player On the court the defense is always wrong because they have to give you something

[@zackrodriguez7519]

Exactly, all you have to do is show outside hand and then bring it to your inside hand if the defender is behind you. If they’re on your hip show inside hand and then take it outside hand. If they jump around like in the video then just take the inside hand lay 😂 anybody can make these reads in game, that’s why dudes aren’t getting their layups blocked on every possession
