As a 6’8 junior, post moves are more of understanding angles and knowing defensive stances, there’s not a single stance that can guard every move therefore if you know the angles and can feel where the pressure is put on you then you can score every time
As a fellow skills and development coach I have to say it was a very nicely well done tutorial. I have one simple yet important critique, we must teach both bigs and guards using post moves to keep the ball a bit higher to avoid having the ball stripped. From the gather or pick up of the ball when goin into the shot, the ball should be immediately raised between chest to head level and on the outside of the defender. It creates a higher percentage shot and makes it easier to draw fouls. Unless you know that you are going into a counter move where you sweep/hard rip the ball through the player should keep the ball high. Onve again good video.
It’s not well done, he should’ve had a defender on him or used examples from games, and could’ve talked about how understanding angles in the post and when to use each move he just gave us options, not actually when or how to use them efficiently
I have to say as a smaller guy my whole life, maxing out at 5'8. I always worked on post moves to create space and get a shot off. Now that I'm older they have proved to be very effective against younger guys that don't play much defense and just want to jack up deep 3s. I now watch a lot of Melo, livingston, Cassell, Duncan, olojuwaun tapes to learn foot work.
That’s what I learned. Why only shoot 3’s play defense and lay/dunk the ball when I can do everything. That’s part of the reason why my friend keep losing to me
I do the same shit the post moves +pump fakes kill defenders as a shorter guy, the defense bites on every fake because they want to block a shorter guy
Post moves. Always nice to see them. I think I said it before, I'd really like to see an undersized big man video as I have to play 5 but I'm rather lean and not very muscular. -pac
I'm a small forward / power for my d4 or intramural for my college and I'm only 6'1 and 19 so according the college requirements I'm good for small but I'm 2 inches under for power lol
I think you missed some important details such as... how to use your body as a shield. How to use defenders force against him. It's more like fencing than a ballet. It's a good post move tutorial for guards and undersized forwards/centers. For big guys you need to engage the contact, drive to the basket, not away from the basket. Ohh, and one more thing. It's always best to master one simple move, and over time add counter moves.
If you're getting double teamed always remember there's going to be an open man. As a big man you're a real target and a threat to the defense, so an aggressive move and then dish out can find the free man for an open shot
Caleb Drewitt the only thing about looking for an open man as a big man in lower level basketball is typically no one is a reliable shooter and it just kinda sucks getting doubled
This channel is the most brilliant thing about bball that I ever found in YT. Every single video is an experience for me. I'm learning every day with every single video. I follow you since you had 2000 subs and you're helping me to follow my dream. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and like you always say: KEEP HOOPIN'
Me fr. I'm the tallest dude in my group and generally when I play pick up as well. However, I can't finish for shit. I'm better in high post and mid somehow.
For the first one, if your taller don’t dribble, just catch and use your pivot foot in a quick motion, dribbling, although adds power, will slow you down and give the defense more time to think of the best way to guard you, just a quick non dribble motion is better.
I’ve always been in a situation where I should do a post move but I don’t know how so I do a post move press and then cut in but sometimes it doesn’t work So this is helpful
I'm just an average hooper and I've just noticed myself recently not being able to do anything in post, my opponents just force me to go to the paint since most of the time I just drive to the basket or shoot a middie, the first and third moves are very useful thank you for making a tutorial that explains details very good
get the baby hook down. it gives you a lot of space. then watch some shaq videos where his baby hook is stopped by the defender and he does the spin counter. its a very good one two punch. even an old guy like me can still do it
This helped a lot because I need to get better in the post and fades since I’m a bigger guy then a lot of people around my age. Now my friend have no chance when I get in the paint
Nice video. I usually play on top since I’m one of the smaller guys on the court but I occasionally face against guys my size or smaller down low so it’s good to know some basic post moves when I’m in that situation.
If you want to you can add a little dream shake to that post fade or post hook, just about any move where your opponent is on one side of you, fake em with the dream shake then hit your shot
I suck at playing under the rim i really need this cause i cant shoot from a far so i need to learn some post moves. I'll make sure that this move especially that 1 and 3 moves i will add it into my game
I’ve found that with the hook shot you should fade into the basket because if u fade away it’s kinda easy to get blocked with all the centers being super tall but if you fade into the defender they lose most of their vertical because they can’t jump high diagonally
thank you very much coach i think this will help me especially and i'm not that good at low post i'm tall here in our area 14 years old 5/10 i'm a filipino and when your 5/10 here in the philippines you are so tall that's why you have to improve your big man skills
I love post moves i dont know y most ppl dont. Its fun as hell killing in the post & its appreciated by hoopers & fans most ppl usually get hype & celebrate when u kill in the post.
One of the main reasons hook shot don't work is players open too much thus losing the stability (enter of gravity) because they end up with a one-hand jump shot. 2:21 is a great illustration of when one opens up too much.
That only works if you have an over eager defender and your immediately follow up with a step through. But then you have to be worried about the other post stepping over.
Question, I used to play at the 2 when I was younger. Haven’t played basketball in nearly 7 years, I’m 19 and 192cm. If I get back in should I play power forward? Casually speaking ofc
That move #1 is the foundation of all possible post moves. You can attach a few more to that move and I guarantee you, you will find your "get a bucket move."
I am a 5'10 lanky 12 year old center. I use to shoot the 3ball and was good about 50% percent with 7 attempts. Now we got a new coach and He tells me to stay near the post. And I have been using a Dirk Fade and Its been killing
Hey coach, So I recently had to switch to center on my team when I use to be power forward because My line up has no tall people just shooters and I’m the only real power on post. Is their a big difference Or something I need to worry about? I just thought it would give me bigger and better opportunities. Anyone can respond, thanks
Just make sure to keep you eyes open for passes from your guards and keep an eye where you threes guy I'd since as center u can draw attention to paint then pass to your thrrenpointer shooter even as small forward i do that or I hakeem shake the post and score
When you catch a pass down low, be ready to kick it back out to the guy that passed it to you or to the top of the key. Those are going to be your best quick passes. Work on your foot work!! Having quick feet down low is a life saver.
I was told you never bring the ball down . Keep it chest at the lowest ala the sikma drill score with the ball high. If I have the size advantage in the post, the last thing I’d do is shoot a fadeaway. I’ll take advantage of my size and put you under the court like Zach Randolph.
i have a game on wednesday and my coach wants me to play pf because im a big man so i needed to learn some stuff so im gonna bed oing these for the next two days
the first move, a more advanced version would be, spin while still keeping your dribble, initiate contact (while your defender is unbalanced from your spin), and hook shot.
I literally said today, "I need to learn some basic post moves." thank you so much. In my opinion your the best coach ever

Verry true, it is all about feeling where your defender is at and then knowing what to do, not as some people think just pure power no brain.

Your points are very accurate. I also mentioned keeping the ball high. Chest, chin, head. He has the ball waist level in the demonstrations.
Im 6'2 and play as a power forward and dominent
@illegal alien may be undersized but still dominent
Because he's not a post player, so he doesn't feel it enough. The momentum and the impact also the rhythm for post player.
Reminder: never bring the ball down in the post, always have it chinned.
Caden Iken you mean bring it over you head?
Dat Hakim its easy for defenders to tap way the ball
Am I the only one that like gets triple teamed when I post up in middle school basketball😂 im not even that good it’s so annoying
Hyguy Gaming yeah that happens alot in middle school basketball, try your best to draw a foul or pass it out to an open teammate.
Hyguy Gaming same, high school players (especially short ones) like to hack, so you gotta go up fast
Ok, now do this with the whole team on you, thats middle school basketball
I need tips.
Lorenzo Rodriguez-Johnson very true I get the whole team in me and because I’m only 5”5 I get 5”7 5”8 lanky boys just standing all around me
basically you have to use speed or pass the ball

Good stuff. I rarely stick with #2 as I like my guys going to the basket, so I use up and under or step thru.

Could you do a video of the best 100 drills that include passing, shooting, dribbling, etc, and other of 50 best moves ?
My go to is the hard dribble, bump, shimmy right turn and fade left.
Could you do a video on perimeter post moves?
Great video man! Can you link me to the music in your video too? Thanks!
This is very useful as a forward...tnx coach!!!!!⛹️👍💪🤙👌❤️❤️❤️🏀🏀🏀
Post hook. So simple, so efficient. Thats why baskeball is perfect game.
One of the main reasons hook shot don't work is players open too much thus losing the stability (enter of gravity) because they end up with a one-hand jump shot. 2:21 is a great illustration of when one opens up too much.
On the catch and fade aren’t u able to fake the fade to the base like and go the other way like a double fade
For the second move coach u can use a fake if the defender is taller or bigger
That only works if you have an over eager defender and your immediately follow up with a step through. But then you have to be worried about the other post stepping over.
You should play games to emphasize post moves if you can. Like a mock game or something. Btw great video coach! Keep it up you deserve many likes man!
This video was super helpful. Thank you
