“In evaluating the way in which ball possessions are gained during the course of a game, we find that 60 to 80 percent of the possessions are gained by rebounding and after an opponent's score. Twenty percent come from opponents's error, and only 5 percent of the possessions come from steals and interceptions. A study of the way ball possessions are gained makes it seem highly impractical to base pressure defense on interceptions and steals.” WaySeemsCoursesGamesStudyBasketballPercentBallsTwentiesPressureErrorsPossessionDefenseStealingOpponentsCoachingScoreBasketball CoachingInterceptions Author:Ralph Miller
“We have a simple rule for switching. Anytime there is movement over the top of a screen, there has to be an automatic switch. If a blind pick is set on one of our defensive players, there has to be a switch. To play good pressure defense, you have to use the switch.” IfsPlayUseSimplePlayerMovementBasketballPicksPressureBlindDefenseScreensCoachingBasketball CoachingOver The TopSwitching Author:Ralph Miller
