  • One of the toughest things to do as a hooper of ANY level and ANY position is to handle pressure and aggressive defenders. But learning to do it and to control YOUR speed will change your game forever, and open up countless opportunities. Here's a look into how.

    Fantastic stuff, this is exactly how individual workouts with a trainer should be! Trainer playing defense and letting the player explore. Then giving points between reps. Simple cues, asking questions, and making stuff harder (handling pressure without being able to blow by). And of course every now and then flipping defense to offense and cook up a bit 😂.

    This was EXACTLY the video that I needed thank you so much. I just had a bad game where I had a lot of turnovers and performed bad under pressure, coincidentally you posted this and it's helped me a ton thanks.

    Good vid........To all my young players, vs full court pressure: 1- change speed more than change direction, 2- Avoid slow spin (to prevent wrap around steal andr traps) 3. If you do change direction, use back dribble crossover or behind back dribble (always see what's in front) 4. Once you get a step, cut your defender off while dribbling to create a 5 on 4. One of the best moves vs full ct. pressure is a between the leg hesitation. When the defender sits after your hesitation, anticipating a change of direction, you then explode.

    My biggest takeaway that helped me is the ball float. Because what happens a lot of people and younger players is aggressive defenders will make you tense up and feel you have to pound the ball or dribble faster but it’s the opposite you want the ball to float more so anyone out there getting ripped a lot and feel you have a good handle but don’t have the confidence this is the video for you.

    This is also part of makes Luka so good. He always seems unaffected by the defense. Even when he's getting blitzed or pressured. Just staying calm and reading the game.

    Thank you so much coach! You really helped me today, it's crazy. I play the point guard position and sometimes I can have this kind of difficulties against an aggressive defense. Too much dribbling makes me lose the ball while this technique that you ask to apply solves all my problems and questions.
    I will be sure to apply it and master it thank you very much!

      you could still use a normal crossover as long as you gonna place the ball at your pocket side again to protect it from the opponent.

      @@lejoneason1208 tweens and tight behind the backs while floating work the best. If you're doing a regular cross tip your chest forward, almost feeling as though the ball is bouncing below your knees if that makes any sense. Basically the ball is bouncing as close to your body as possible, while also adding protection with your upper body. Then like he shows pull the ball back into what he called the pocket.
