• Create ball pressure and take away vision
• Deny passes

Using these drills, your team will develop the skills necessary to succeed on the defensive end of the floor. This video is great for beginning coaches and for coaches who need a refresher course on half court defense.

Brey then adds options that the team can run to take advantage of opponents. He includes competitive shooting drills for both the guards and posts, which become incorporated in motion drills. The players move and shoot according to the calls made by coach. You'll learn spacing, timing, player movement and ball reversals and the need for players to develop patience and allow options to develop to their benefit.

Two-time ACC Coach of the Year Seth Greenberg takes to the court to explain how to attack both odd- and even-front zone defenses, providing the concepts that will allow your team to play to their strengths.

An effective zone offense must:

• start with the transition game
• must have players attacking the offensive glass
• players must not settle for jump shots
• there must be ball movement and player movement
• must screen the zone
• players must be able to shot fake and ball fake
• the players must be shot ready

Greenberg completes his zone attack arsenal with a two-guard offense designed to attack the 1-3-1 zone defense. In this offense, which is his variation of the famous "T-Game" offense, Greenberg wants his guards to play mid-point to mid-point, making it easier to attack the gray areas of the 1-3-1 and helps avoid being trapped on the sideline.

The key to Coach Greenberg's success at attacking zones lies in his philosophy of getting the ball to your best players in position to score. These simple rules and concepts will allow your team to play instinctively and successfully defeat zone defenses.

Give your guards the freedom to use their creativity and take advantage of their skills with this ball screen pick-and-roll offense.

Using white board diagrams and on court demonstration, Wes Peek teaches you how to run the high ball screen offense utilizing an athletic 4, a true point guard, and a knock down shooter. You will learn verbal and visual cues, how to use specific player's abilities, and variations of the ball screen offense.

Peek begins with three basic entries into the ball screen offense, then covers the details to successfully run it versus a man or zone defense. When run correctly, this offense will move the help defense out of position, create long recoveries and put the opponent's bigs in a situation where they have to defend on the perimeter.

In this DVD, you will learn to:

• Utilize the pick and roll in your man and zone offense
• Learn Cues and Calls to help you teach and execute the offensive sets
• Learn how to run the offense from multiple sets and out of your transition offense
• Counters and reads to teach your players how to react to switches and hard hedges
• Drill the whole offense at once to maximize repetition.
