The Defensive Tactic that Changed Basketball

- We hear so much about how the three-point shot and offensive spacing has changed the game of basketball. While that's certainly true, there is also a defensive tactic that's had a similar impact: Switching.
In this video, we take a deep dive into how and why defenses are now switching so many screens. Some of the main teams included: The Warriors, the Rockets, Villanova, Texas Tech, Baylor, LSU, and the 2004 Pistons and Lakers.

This is the type of content that enriches watching basketball live. It's so cool to be able to guess what a team is planning/thinking then watching it unfold.
Absolutely.
Jesus Loves you and wants you to accept him as your Lord and saviour
🎯 the science of it does make it more intriguing/entertaining
I think it was during the Warriors-Raptors finals when I saw a play unfold and call it in the seconds it took to occur. It was “Cyclone” that Kerr took from Hoidberg and he took from college ball
To me the big turning point around 2013. This was still two years BEFORE the Warriors took over the league, but you could see the change happening. The Warriors crushed the Nuggets in the playoffs in the first round, and Steph kept abusing players going under the screens by pulling up for three. It kind of broke my brain. I kept seeing it and thinking "but... that's a bad shot, right???" But it wasn't. The game had changed.
In turn, that level of shooting and spacing changed how teams covered ball screens, which led to everything you've shown here.
The rockets changed the game
@@allenross3050 salty rocket fans that the warriors OWN the rockets lmfao. More specifically, Steph.
I am a Gonzaga fan so czcams.com/video/T-aCJH_96No/video.html got the advanced notice in 2008. Being able to knock down hella contested 3s is a game changer. "High arcing jump shot"... he had to drop FORTY to lead Davidson to BARELY being the last team that knocked Gonzaga out before the second round. S P E C I A L
Actually its the Suns of 2005 first then but can't defend the the post well and then its the Heat of 2012 who enhanced it that really changed the game because they can defend as well the post players because of switching and fronting bigger post players while having a stretch 5 in Chris Bosh. We saw that when Bosh got injured in the playoffs and they fully utilized it in the finals against the Thunder. Then the Warriors used that same concept in 2015 with a stretch 5 and also because how quick he is to defend perimeter players (like Bosh who is good but Draymond is elite) and then Rockets of 2018 enhanced it again by switching every screen because the Warriors were so potent in the perimeter.
@@mikeoxbig6500 Steph was 🥶 ABYSMAL in the 2019 rockets warriors playoffs. Check the stats
Omg those catch and shoot deep 2's shots are just absolutely painful to watch. Just amazing that it took the league so long to realize that stepping like a foot back doesn't change your accuracy much but scores more points
It’s beautiful IMO.
That’s why I always get annoyed with the ppl who are like “i miss 2000’s nba, all they do is shoot 3’s now!”. I’m just like, so u miss watching worse quality play? Because that’s all it really is lol. Taking in inefficient, contested mid range shots and feeding bad bigs the ball in the post instead of playing thru the better wing players.
I grew up watching that era and it use to drive me crazy I never understood it. But to be fair stepping back absolutely did change they're accuracy bcuz guys didn't train to do it so they weren't comfortable a ton of guys would be comfy with college 3 point range n never adjust.
Nobody says they miss 2000 nba. They miss before defense was illegal.
@@dlynchious1157 ?????
That's when you HAD illegal defense lol
As a high school basketball coach, these videos are absolutely tremendous. Really appreciate the effort, explanation, and details that go into these breakdowns. Keep up the EXCEPTIONAL work! Cheers.
Luka exploits the switch everytime I don’t think switching is the way to go
@@johntookyobish6757 luka is never gonna win nothing cuz the ball sticks
@@johntookyobish6757 in high school there aren’t players as good as Luka to destroy a defense
as a hs coach u seriously agree with these ideals about mid vs 3pt efficiency ? and ideals on defense? honestly....
I remember Barkley bashing the 2000s Mavs teams for switching screens. The game changed a lot.
Your videos are great! Keep it up!
Personnel has greatly changed.. the league doesn't have traditional 5's and 4's were now have 3's and 4's playing the forward position and 4's are playing the 5.. so now you have non traditional bigs who can switch and stay in from of perimeter players
Come visit this video right after watching your collaboration with Roger aka GM. Good content! Subscribed!
This (and all your stuff) is gold for coaches just starting out like myself - I've taken huge steps in my level of understanding the x's and o's of basketball thanks to your channel and wanted to relay my thanks. Cheers and thanks coach
Hope you have success coaching my guy. Study & learn the players & opponents.
This video alone just made basketball so much more fun to watch again! Thank you so much for showing how defense has evolved along with offensive playmakers! Chess is so much more fun than checkers and watching defense like this changes the perspective of basketball!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Devolved. You gullible m0ron
We love the super nerdy basketball videos!
how great is this type of information for basketball and for countries that still are trying to find the new ways and get into the new era of modern basketball...this is gold for us and thank you for it... from Caracas Venezuela coach!! im a big fan of your channel!! keep it up!!!
I was thinking the same thing about the LSU defense. When I saw them play earlier this year, I called it a matchup zone.
to me a switch everything defense is almost zone . watch in the video , the players on defense in a point switch everything man are basically just defending a zone
Such an underrated channel. Love the content here.
You’re a legend for putting out this type of content. I love your videos and I always learn a lot. Thank you coach!
great video. glad u mentioned how the switches basically become zone at a certain point
This channel is entertaining , clear and precise. And explanation are broken down for almost anyone to understand. That in itself is underrated. Thank you!
Subbed immediately after this video. This is the type of content that makes me come back for more. Cerebral basketball strategy and how offensive/defensive schemes have evolved over time.
As a non american who didnt have much exposure to basketball tactics growing up, this video really stands out to me the way its been explained and *especially* the visuals. good work :)
First time seeing a video from this channel and I already learned a lot. When watching live games, I didn't notice what they are doing on defense but I will give more attention now.
Great vid, as someone trying to get more into the X's and O's of basketball you had really good explanations and visuals.
Awesome video! Thank you for all your effort you put into this channel 👏🏻🤝🏻
Excellent breakdown analysis. Love it! Learnt a lot! Thank you!
So glad you're back, love these videos.
you deserve every one of those subscribers, your content its in other level, its amazing. I hope i could find a channel like yours about NFL. Much love from Brasil!! Keep going on the incredible work
I love the content on this channel, it's so underrated.
This is insanely detailed loved every second of it 🔥🔥
Omg this was a GREAT VIDEO! Love how you dissected how it works, its strengths and weaknesses, and how to beat it.
Thanks for you work man !
Great content !
Thank you for such quality content!
I am enjoying the break downs and the content on you channel. keep up the good work .
Great job on this channel my man I’ve had people asking me to break down film of Indiana’s games and your video def one of the best I’ve seen at breaking this down.
Such awesome content. Always enjoy watching your breakdowns
Awesome video! Thank you for all your effort you put into this channel
Love this video. I don’t remember which clinic I heard it but the rule was “we don’t switch out of convenience, we switch to take something away”.
Man watching this year's NBA Finals would be a treasure trove of X's and O's with this offensive/defensive topics
Great stuff. Love the triple switch breakdown
I think it's interesting to compare this to Belicheck/Saban's match coverage concepts in football. Both blend concept of man to man and zone to create favorable positioning for defenders. So much of it is where and when the help comes in both defenses
Are there good video references for those football examples that you could share? Thanks.
One of the best videos illustrating a defensive concepts. A must watch for any basketball fan.
No
You’re already blowing up as a channel, but you deserve even more! Keep it going man, amazing thoroughly-made content 👌
In the games that I have played, I switch when it is smart to do so and I fight thru the pick when it is smart to do so. It all depends on how good my teammate is.
Big props on the editing, that text over players looks easy, but it takes a shit ton of time to do. Keep after it, love the channel
I love watching old videos of the midrange wizardry from the 90s and early 2000s. I think the fact that some players were good enough to be able to turn and fade, deliberately taking off balance shots to score was amazing. I wanted to model my game after a Kobe or Demar type player, but it’s a hard pill to swallow when you learn that only the best of the best can make midrange shots worth it, and matching the efficiency with a 3 is much more advantageous.
By far the most well explained and informative bball vid I have seen
Great content, I've seen every single video on your channel, keep the good work up. Only one thing, I don't understand why is nobody talking about rebounding after switches? While the triple switch allows the three-pointers (sometimes) but it takes away the opportunity for the big to just outpower the guards for the boards, and simple switches can lead to iso ball and all that, but if there is a big with a guard on him under the basket, that can lead to a lot of second-chance points skewing the efficiency data on those isolations, they might be producing points indirectly. Just a something to think about, other than that, I absolutely love your channel
Man this content is amazing. Really enjoyed the video
Thanks for such an in depth analysis 🙏🙏🙏
Need more uploads! I love content like this where basketball film/strategies are broken down!
Love to see Euroleague and NBA clips! Great vid.
Thank you Jordan! Excellent content!
Great informative content. Thanks!
I love your channel bro, subscribed
As usual, amazing stuff, you deserve way more subscribers.
I am learning so much when I watch your videos.
Hopefully you'll soon get a NBA featured video like ElGee.
awesome video, lotsa time and info went into making it, thanks!
Great vid keeping coming ; knowledge his stupendous
THANK YOU! MORE DEFENSIVE BREAKDOWN VIDEO PLEASE!
Ben Taylor calls the Triple Switch 'The Shift' but instead his version involves about 3-5 players and usually involves a big hedging to the ball handler for a few seconds THHEN switching and then every1 else switches as well.
Great video. Thanks for sharing!
Terrific video. Lots of great work here.
Just discovered the channel, keep going!!💪🏻
Fantastic video as always!
That 18/19 Warriors Rocket series was such a unique and exciting series to watch bc both side constantly use very well trained switches to avoid screen based tactics and lead to the most 1 on 1 reliant and slow paced series I have seen in the last decade, it was epic
That series was a joke literally just devolved into a 3 pt contest mixed with a flop off
No it wasnt
casual, u clearly don't understand a shit about the game@@TheSands83

Great video- instant sub. 20 years ago i would shove guards over/through the screener as a center- the idea of switching wasnt even a thing. Which was weird because more often than not the point couldnt hit 20% from 3, even if he wanted to shoot- which they didnt unless they cut or got to the elbow. Amazing how offense and defense evolved in a short time.
great video coach keep going!
this is another amazing video!!
Another fantastic video. As a Purdue fan I've become very familiar with the weaknesses of switching 1 through 5 this year lol
amazing breakdown...you need to do more vids
I've always been into basketball and I have some decent knowledge but I put more into learning soccer, this just blew me away, love this video
No one cares Adams
Your the only channel that makes sense . Good job
Great educational video Jordan!!
Very well done! Thank you!
incredible video. simply amazing
One of my favorite channels on CZcams
Great video. Loved it
My favorite CZcams channels, you and Coach Daniel
Great Great video my guy!
Ran a defense in hs called point, which was a man-zone mashup where switching occurred all the time. It resembled a 1-3-1 zone, but the positions swapped depending on the ball. Took a lot of talking, but I can kind of see it in the way LSU's defense is set up, though I'm sure it is helped by a lot of the 5-man-out offenses.
You gotta do a game breakdown of FSU VT from last week and how Leonard Hamilton absolutely refused to go a little smaller at the expense of his offense when Cattoor and Padulla couldn't miss a three over Mcleod. It destroyed any comeback they had. Interested to see how he comes back tonight against Clemson.
It's funny looking back that my coach, when we were 10, taught us to switch and closeout, that year we won the chip moved up into a older league and made it to the semifinals
Honestly my favourite basketball channel on CZcams
Love the nerdy videos... thank you
Off topic but why is St Mary’s defense always so good considering they don’t have the most athletic players? What’s schemes do they use?
Effort and perseverance
Packline D. Similar to how Virginia defends.
@@drewfleming5584 I’m a Liberty fan and I believe we use the same scheme and it works very well (albeit against lesser competition). I’m not insanely knowledgeable about schemes but I think we use it to some degree since Coach McKay was an assistant at UVA at one point!
Good analysis. From a coaches perspective(at the college and pro level), teaching, practicing then drilling into muscle memory switching defense takes time. Generally(IMHO) far more time is dedicated to offense because of the timing needed to be successful. The sense in the past has been that to play standard defense is more about individual positioning and effort than team timing. I think that the challenge for many coaches is that focusing enough time to make this type of team switching defense work, takes away from the time spent on creating offensive synergy. That said, with the explosion of 3 point shooting, less timing for plays is needed offensively, and more time can then come back to focusing on defensive schemes. In other words, I think the two are connected from a coaching perspective.
Thanks for the good tactic videos
Huge fan of this channel and love all your content. I'm curious what software you use when you're drawing up those X's and O's like you did at 4:16?
bro, whoever else is watching your videos are nerds to! keep going I appreciate the content & knowledge
This was a great breakdown
You're really really good at this, bro
Love your Channel
Great work
Bro.. this was a great video

You make basketball so easy to understand. You’re amazing dude
M0r0n
0:00 DAAAAAAMN, that brings memories!!!! I bet almost no one today remember or cared about who they, but they were a classic when i was a kid and teen.
Well done sir, I'm still watching coaches having players face guard opponents AWAY(in high-school) from ball let alone switch or help side...your man D should look like a zone and your zone a man, with folks like you putting out Great content its bound to have a positive effect on those well intentioned individuals who give their time but simply don't have the necessary knowledge, and just as importantly this great sport..well done
This is a fantastic video
Great analysis
subbed.. good times and very lovely
Anyone here because GM's video🙋♂
Who's GM?
@@x-man9473 A Taiwan CZcamsr who introduced hoopvision68’s videos
Doesn’t seem like “GM” is very relevant lol
Woah! Super impressive my guy
This was great!
