Defending
Memphis flash post

Tony Barone

a) 5 flashes into the lane, X5 defends the cut. Do you step into him with your forearm and try to push him up the lane (it's contact, not a foul)? Memphis tries to stay low, push him on the waist with an elbow so he can't spin to the basket.
 
Bobby Knight (5Star) - Defending the flash post - 5 cuts to the ballside high post then spins and cuts to the low post.

b) Coach passes to 2 who takes one quick dribble baseline, X5 opens up with a swing step then takes a charge outside the lane.

c) 2 passes to 5, X5 closes out, it's live, no middle, 5 shoots, finish the play, whoever gets the rebound puts it in.

Progression - 5 can drive the ball.

Repeat on the other side of the floor.
