2 Progression - add a second line of defence, ballside (or use a cone). Coach passes earlier and jumps in front to force a change, then the second defender steps up to force a second change. Finish with a spin pullback, slice, or floater (over the defender).
The finishes that a point guard needs are:
- a spin layup on the other side of the rim (cradle the ball with both hands) - a floater off one foot, high off the glass over a shot blocker - step across a defender (hop into a slice), shoot off two feet - a reverse layup to cut off a defender.
Be efficient, go north-south. Taylor Allan - second line of defence - pull up and shoot (not a floater or spin or Euro-step), or go by if he closes the gap (around if you are moving quicker, change direction if he is moving quicker) - Euro-step - about 5-10 foot range, fake in the direction the help defender is moving, e.g. step outside then go around him inside - spin - fake in the direction he is moving, spin opposite - push-cross - the help defender is a little further from the hoop, head fake in the direction he is moving, push it through (roll crossover, throw across), may not need another dribble; almost like splitting two defenders. Augie Johnston - pro hop - the last dribble has to be hard, jump off the non-dribble foot (slice), jump stop, switch the ball from side to side - Euro step - finish with a half reverse (option - pass fake on the first step outside) - Rondo - stride stop, fake a goofy half reverse, spin for a shot, hook, or step thru |
