Coach Frikki, i'm your biggest fan! Your guides are ALWAYS extremely helpful! Your video format is simple. I've studied how 2 steal, how 2 attack from 3-threat, how 2 finish w/ contact, how to use off arm, how to steal the ball, how to blow by with different moves, how to be more athletic from your channel. These mixtapes help a lot. I am very glad that somehow i find this gap d tutorial on the internet. I know that this concept will give me tonn of steals in my games. Keep dropping GEMs! Appreciate it!!!

definitely needed this Coach Frikki thank you...wish it could've came earlier while I was in JUCO...Defense especially man to man is something I struggle on...but part of it is because I'm 5'7 135 lbs, but at the same time, some of the other players on the team were my height and I struggled just closing out on them and not gettin beat off the dribble but they were bigger than me weight wise like 140-165 lbs so that could be another reason why I get beat I guess. But for some reason I just seemed to get sometimes

Next vídeo off ball defense

[@vishalkashyap8951]

So how can we attack the gap with dribble????

[@CoachFrikki]

1) Kicking it early against the defender who's overhelping. Like CP3 does at 0:51. 2) Gathering the ball strong through the reach and finish. Most of the steals in the video were while the driver was still dribbling, instead of having picked up the ball strong. Each situation is different and it's not always open to split through the defense.

@@CoachFrikki alright thank you sir....so next time I am gonna dribble when I see a wide gap.

[@noahrodriguez9538]

It takes more of a team effort to penetrate gaps off the dribble. In other words, you MUST always have great spacing & off ball movement by your teammates to trigger larger gaps to attack. I’ve seen too many defenders exposed to a double gap since they let their man cut behind them without even noticing. Dribble drive principles favor The key to attacking gaps before dribbling is the PASS. •The pass triggers a cut •The cut creates a gap •The gap provides driving lanes

Isn’t this the same as the plug position?

[@LockdownDefense]

Yes, just different names. Gap, Plug, Shift...
