Breakdown drill for the front row of the 2-2-1 press. X3 forces O1 sideline on the inbounds pass (force, pressure, contain), X4 protects the middle and provides help.

If X3 does a really good job of pressuring the ball, then O1's number one job will be beating X3, he won't be worried about his other four teammates, and in that situation the press will work.

On ball reversal, X3 bumps X4 over to pick up the ball, X3 covers the middle. Continue upcourt.
