I invite aggressive defenders make them look silly with all that effort put him in a blender but I like it because it makes the game so much fun especially on the drive I’ll invite the body to body contact any-day You just have to be aggressive as well on offense

[@KL-ft6rn]

The problem is, when I get fouled it ain’t a foul.

[@hommeboy]

Then keep running, ball is still live and hustle

[@stun3006]

exactly!

[@dragonjay9500]

If you call a foul you gonna get yourself beat

[@cloudymonet]

While you drive and the defender fouls you, scream out "AYE!" or "AND 1!". Works for me sometimes.

Im 6 ft and quite strong and 81kg. I used to find driving hard so I used to avoid it and just take a mid range jumper or take a jumper and then go for the rebound or just pass and go for the rebound and try to post. What I realised was that I wasn’t confident enough to drive because I hadn’t trained to shoot or rather release the ball by various methods. My first coach of many years always discouraged flashy one handed shots, reverse layups and things like that so I’d never gotten into trying those things. But after watching NBA thoroughly and watching these training videos helped a lot. Now I can easily beat 2 defenders and atleast attempt the shot from under the basket if not score. It’s all about continuously learning more and training for more.

[@tropiqal6987]

exact same bro, how u doing 3 years later and any tips for an amateur player who is 6ft 80 kgs

[@burzum8312]

@@tropiqal6987 Hey man, What I learnt is this: 1. You gotta train hard. Your whole body needs to be conditioned to play and beat defenders thorughout the game. Medium distance running, sprints, explosive movement training like depth jumps, tuck jumps and side to side jumps is key. Or else you just wouldn't be able to move quickly with ease. Have to add weights to this as you train more and more. 2. Making your back, especially lower back very strong is important. Your whole upper body control is based on your lower back strength. Curry does 120kg deadlifts. 3. Increase shoulder strength to easily hold off or slightly push away defenders. For this you need lower back strength too. 4. Working on your core (abs and back) helps A LOT in maintaining stability and to be able to do off balance layups and tough fadeaways.

This is really helpful and I'm glad to have found your guys' channel. The production value on your videos are high and your tutorials give a lot of value. My only issue is that most of these example videos of Kyrie do not show him actually applying the move/technique.

[@vagekin587]

dunno why but i love playing against amazing defenders! everytime i drive by them and make the layup, and see their frustration is an adrenaline rush for me.

[@abdelhamid3552]

Helped me a lot. Plus I have been searching for how to shoot, what form I need and I noticed that you can't copy someone other's, you have to make your own. So I made my own and started practicing with it. I have seen that I have improved in shooting. All thanks to you Coach Alex.

[@samir2231]

coach what are the best things to do to increase you change of speed and explosiveness off the dribble?

[@HowToGameMain]

Samir Singh i do uphill sprints,leg presses,squats,and calf raises,and weighted box steps. On the court, i do drills like slow dribble quick transition into explosive dribbles,explosive layup drives,hesi into explosive blow bys and crossover to explosive blow bys. It works great for me. This drills are focused on you being able to shift to an explosive speed to drive to the basket.

[@dashb620]

Hey alex..what shoes would you recommend for outdoor play that are good looking and can be used as sneakers too

The low dribbling tip helped me a lot, I usually get ripped and start a fast break for the other team when I try to dribble normally. Now I don’t.

[@playoffp2195]

Deze video legt uit hoe je drived doorheen de helpside defense in de Paint die je bal proberen te stealen door het vast te pakken of nadat je je man hebt voorbij gedribbelt begin je zotlaag te dribbelen en dan als je bij de rim bent doe je layup. Dit is zodat de helpside het niet kan pakken

[@禁断のバスケ]

No one can master a DEADLY drive without not getting blocked even once at the practice. Don't be afraid to get blocked. I had those hard days, I got blocked every time, but now, I can beat anybody using my body and agility, laying the ball up banking it in. It's a whole different story when in games though, however ask your friend to play 1 v 1. It's okay to get blocked multiple times, but will to improve and stay positive. That's all. Peace.

Some one can correct me if I'm wrong but go straight up the middle fast or pass it fast up the middle and make sure you or the guy you are passing it to is a great dribbler. And most of the time you will have an open team mate by the hoop.
