The shooting foul on the body needs to be recognized amongst pickup ballers! Too many times someone has ran and chest bumped me or turned into my legs while I was in the air for a shot. “That’s a foul” “WHAT?!? My hands didn’t even touch you!!”
your right, that happens to me too... I usually then do the same back to them when they shoot and ask how they like it... I am 6'2 and 290 pounds so I dont worry about physical fights when there is a disagreement because I am usually the biggest on the court and nobody want to mess with me LOL .... 😁😎💪🤪
I used to get the same at your age, I was 6 foot 1 at your age and on the fast break I only had to take 3 dribbles down the court and 0 dribbles if on the fast break from the 3 point line. kids will think your traveling because of the ground your covering but in reality your bigger than them and you have great footwork
It sucks ive seen people who could’ve been really good but stopped because there friends kept fouling them and they didn’t know that they where getting fouled and stopped because they thought they weren’t good.
That was the opposite for me! I would try to get the ball and coming from a football background I’d get called for fouling when I would try to get the ball
I have a question my one of my friends gets aggressive in basketball 2v2. So starting from a check ball they get really close to me with their chest pressed up to the point where I can’t move or am falling back. Is there a foul call in this situation and is there a way around it. Also let’s say I’m planted but stick my elbow out so they don’t press would that be a foul on my end???
he can play close and even up on you. But he cant knock you off your feet as that would be a foul on him. Do a step through jab to get him off you th-cam.com/video/WShDMZKb4ek/w-d-xo.html
Great question. Thanks for your answer. So when someone has a strong hand against you without pushing, it will be very difficult right, as this is no foul?
@@bballcoachallen Great video, by the way. In all honesty, I'm a newbie when it comes to basketball rules. I'm trying to learn the game by watching videos like this on TH-cam and watch games on TV to try to understand it better.
Hello, I have a question : when pro players dunk on a defender how come fouls are never called ? Also how much can you push on an attacking player before a foul is called ? Thanks a lot !
as a defender you can stand your ground and make contact with the other player but you can not instigate the contact... if an offensive player makes contact with you its a foul on him... However keep in mind incidental and minor contact is generally not called in most leagues (depending on refs)
What if a stronger player is driving for a layup but their shoulders are dropped like they are a playing rugby and the defender stands their ground but due to being less stronger of the two the defender is pushed back. Whos foul is it?
Hello, I want to ask you something, I was playing pickup with my friends and I blocked someone’s layup while being behind them(without having any contact whatsoever) and he said that’s a foul. Is is really a foul?
is there a certain degree of strength required in a slap for it to constitute a foul? if someone is driving and they get a light slap on the wrist or forearm would this still be a foul? or would it not count as a foul because it didn't hinder the players drive?
Dude this sport is highly entertaining and fun but also its one of the sports with the worst approach on fouls. It favors offense too much. Football (soccer) is the best one on how a potential contact sport should be regulated.
Heya coach, I'm a 6'1 15 year old guy, so I play a lot of basketball though I've never been on an actual team due to a military parent, but I do play a lot of pickup. I plan to try out for my high school basketball team as a freshman. I do notice that I play a little aggressive, during pickup, such as when I'm trying to make blocks. One scenario that occurs often is when someone is shooting, I really try to get up there and block it, sometimes I miss though and they get the ball through, but I might accidentally touch them on the hand a little **after** the ball has left their arm. So they are no longer touching the ball and I'm recovering from my jump and accidentally brush their arm, could this be a foul? Is it really just depending on the ref?
yea lol depends on the ref, technically if its incidental contact that doest affect the ball it shouldn't be a foul ... but refs are human and make mistakes or have their own ideas ... being aggressive on defense is good in my opinion
Is it a foul when a defense player using his core and arm to push the offensive player away from the basket? I always see these kinds of defense players. They make me no way to try to go for a lap up lol
Hey man I need your help. So when I’m defending I put my arms out to keep the player from going somewhere but today this guy was saying it’s a foul. Is that true in anyway?
yup you cannot stop someones progression with your arms your arms can be down on your sides and above your head. You cant even put your hands on players in the low post anymore or it could be called a foul
Can you please explain to what extent a ball handler can layup over a defensive player. For some reason it feels like the ball handler in basketball A major advantage
Some different ways are to get the defender off their feet, or beat them off the dribble, or you can use your body if the defender is moving. ... This is actually a great topic for a video I will need to cover but I do somewhat cover some tips here: Kyle Lowry video: th-cam.com/video/X5l7yN1mmIg/w-d-xo.html
@@bballcoachallen thanks so much for responding! I would love to see a video on that. I want to get a better understanding what the ball handler is allowed to do. And how a Defender should stand their ground or draw the offensive foul.
stand your ground stay on 2 feet standing straight up... he backs you down you fall... offensive foul..... or you can get low and push back... but 1st option makes the player more mad
Really trying to understand this our but failing to comprehend. I see players valued for fouls constantly in the nba when they are really the ones that are getting ran into..if you collide with another player but its neither players fault.. why is a foul called,? Wondering why the refs seem so foul happy??
if two players hit each other it should be a foul on both players. However if a player makes contact with another player the player making the contact gets the foul. Refs are also human and make mistakes

When I take two steps, I take really long steps people call travel but the ref doesn’t
I used to get the same at your age, I was 6 foot 1 at your age and on the fast break I only had to take 3 dribbles down the court and 0 dribbles if on the fast break from the 3 point line. kids will think your traveling because of the ground your covering but in reality your bigger than them and you have great footwork

That sucks... Show them this video to get those people back for fouling LMAO th-cam.com/video/UInMfKrbXu0/w-d-xo.html I hope you like that video haha
hey I want to know if I go up for a layup and the ball is in the air and my arm or head or and body part gets hit or slapped is that a shooting foul?
That was the opposite for me! I would try to get the ball and coming from a football background I’d get called for fouling when I would try to get the ball
And stopped playing because of it felt like I couldn’t do anything to get the ball

Thanks when I was playing a game everyone kept saying I was fouling and u helped me know what a foul is thank u

if you make 0 contact than no not a foul

as long as the hit effects the shot its a foul

@@bballcoachallen thanks coach I appreciate you going through all the comments and answer them it really helps I'm sure!
Is reaching for the ball when the defender is dribbling on his other side hip a foul?
no, unless you make contact with the player
Thanks a lot. This really helped! From Korea.
I'm happy it helped, your welcome 😁

its ok to make contact but not to push/hit the offensive player
@@bballcoachallen thanks coach
your welcome
Very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
so i have a question can u do a video on fail shots
Hey thanks for the idea... I would probably call it "Bad shots in Basketball" and explain why the failed shots failed
Basketball Coach Allen yes thanks so much
your welcome

sounds good 😎
How do you stop a big man from just backing you down to the basket then?
stand your ground stay on 2 feet standing straight up... he backs you down you fall... offensive foul..... or you can get low and push back... but 1st option makes the player more mad
@@bballcoachallen thx
your welcome
Great videos for aspiring coaches
thank you
You are breathing awfully heavy after just talking and dribbling a bit, I hope you are ok.
outta shape

Man it kills me i wish people got punished for fouling in street ball with free throws
lol
Is it allowed to use armbar to prevent offensive player from posting up in low post area?
you cant use your hand, but you can use your forearm. However, you have to be careful not to extend your arm as that would also be a foul
If you're pushing some body with your chest is that a foul
if your the one creating the contact than yes, but if you flex your chest when the opponent backs you down than no its not a foul
If I take a jumpshot and the defender touches my hand, like a high five, is that a foul?
only if the ref calls it... technically can only be a foul if you affect his ability to shoot or his ability to land
@@bballcoachallen thanks coach
If someone is about to take a shot and the defender touches only the ball before the shooter releases, is this a foul?
no, unless you make contact after depending on the situation, like not giving room to land, etc
@@bballcoachallen I understand thanks! Enjoy watching your videos! Keep up the great content
No
It's cool that you can foul strategically.
yep, I like it
