Leg strength, core strength, and obviously some arm & functional “push” strength. I’m small, but extremely strong player. Agitate their moment dribbles in the post, and if they’re going for fades or drives, literally use your hands to cup off the side views before they get into a rhythm to make a move. Literally get your hands as close to their eyes as possible, as often as possible. Most players don’t do this anymore. Personally love placing my hands in the two spots where I KNOW their next dribble is going to be, because it cuts off two comfortable options that might encourage their rhythm. Make their brain rely on filling in the blanks rather than letting their eyes physically see the floor. Also: - always cut off the baseline - keep reaching to a minimum unless you’re someone with great timing & prediction - don’t back down and get physical, but obviously be controlled. If they can just lay it up over you the best you can do is make it super uncomfortable and timing you jump contest as a last resort.
- Take away normal pocket for example right handed people like ball on left hip - Dictate angle; push in one direction with chest to the grey area (short corner) - Drop down, shoulders little bit over, knees, active hands with palms up, trace ball with hand - If you want to have hand on ball go from low to high (from underneath) - If he goes the way you want them to, keep inside hand (hand by three point) close to body, and keep the other up - Want to contest with hand on ball or face - If tries to finish, take off angle, tight to take body, and keep the hand that's up high - If beat, get flat to get back into a race (run), slide, and hollow out with both hands up (have space between you and offensive player) - Play with hands back and with chest over knees. Boxer stance is also good - If dribbles with live dribble, do exact same things and principles, The only thing is if they start driving you need to hollow out/suck back out and stay with high hands and brace a hit - Stay in between man and basket - Stay at a comfortable distance
I've watched 60 viideos in the last week trying to learn how to coach better and this might have been the best one. Good stuff. You just explained 1/2 the game in 10 mins. Thoughts and prayers to Kobe and his family. RIP.
legit tips for sure. i always think its better, no matter if it ends up forcing them center, to take away their lead step since a first step off the lead step is faster than a first step off the lead step crossing over. my experience is when u take away the lead step, they almost always turn their back and pivot, meaning u can now step away from them and start the whole process over = P
I have a question about my scoring moves I didn’t get an answer on the how to pick your scoring move Video so I will do it on a new Video. In the scoring move video it said to lock in on 1 or 2 scoring moves and build counter but in coach Drew’s Egt 2.0 it has me doing tons of different moves year long
I feel that at some point you have to get into proper defensive positioning and then just resist... they will try and bump you... but you earned that positioning... so why keep retreating...
Video is rlly good But I guess it could've been a great idea to play a real 1v1 so we can think about all this in real time And even explain whith slow mo when there was a great defense or explain why the defender got scored on
but instead of forcing the man to the baseline with the ball in his his right hand, if he IS right handed, shouldn't we force him to dribble with his left hand?
If you take away the pocket while allowing middle, an easy high rip or a low rip gets him even with you. He now has the ball in his right and can drive, bump and lay it up.
Korver is more of an off ball player so you wanna be able to get thru screens and run with that player, rondo is a playmaker so you wanna keep you hands moving in the passing lanes and go under screens because hes not the best shooter
Syncs you don't need a class to play defence like him. just keep slapping your opponent's arms and hands while simultaneously pushing into him using your body.
Every time I guard relatively far away they throw at me and always score, and every time I guard close they pass me and always score. What should I do?
Yep, i always send them towards their strong hand as shooting of the dribble on that side is harder than the weak side lifting the ball and also allowing a convenient step back. Always send them to their strong hand side
@@bartholomewlyons some will think that's counterintuitive but if u give enough ground while not allowing a shot in the spot they r in, u can force them into a contested mid range shot tryna swing their hip over to align their elbow with the rim
if your opponent beats you and you turn your body which is needed to sprint back, he's just gonna pull back and either take the jumper while you're a mile away or cross it back and beat you completely when u try to recover. defending good players is basically impossible in basketball. that's why nba pros dont put effort into defence
paulchaps2303 nothing is impossible if you are allowed to foul like pat bev and don't have to play any offence so you can put 100% of your energy into defence. now kahwi is a different story. his good d doesn't come from fouling, it comes from his quick feet and reflexes and defensive feel combined with his huge wingspan. now how many players have this combination? even so, kahwi can only slow down people like harden or durant, not shut them down. it takes more than one person to shut down good players, but then you leave teammates open. the only option for nba teams is to kinda "out offence" the opponent, if u know what u mean. look at what the rockets are doing now
Thank you Kobe 🙏 You taught us what the "E" in EGT stands for.
We love you, brother. God speed on your next journey 💜💛
Rip kobe goat
Kooobeeeeee daddy i scream yur name

Much love to Kobe and his family. Can’t image what they are going through
R.I.P Kobe Bryant.... We all loved you

That kid wearing kobes. I am glad. RIP Kobe you will never be forgotten in the game of basketball
Wow, some good insight on the swing step if you get beat on the rip through/drive. I was never taught to get "flat" in those situations.
I've watched 60 viideos in the last week trying to learn how to coach better and this might have been the best one. Good stuff. You just explained 1/2 the game in 10 mins.
Thoughts and prayers to Kobe and his family. RIP.
This video helps me so much because i’ve always haven’t had the best lateral quickness and these tips will definitely help me for future situations.
Right video at the right time
Thanks coach i really needed this i was struggling with D recently i hope it'll help me
Did it help?

Thank you so much. Been plying defense wrong lately
Thank you
Thank you for the quick lesson, really helps a lot with my defenses.
We need a Kobe tribute 😔
We wrote a tribute to Kobe in today's email 🙏
THAT SHOT POCKET TIP IS FIRE. Thanks for that.
the hollow out concept is such a creative idea for defense. most people teach bodying the defender.
Thankyou this is helpful and it works 🎉🎉
That’s a real game here 🎉
That video was very helpful !
effort, determination and tenacity always beat out only using what you are taught.
Hey Drew, slide and no cross steps?
Great tips!
I have a question about my scoring moves I didn’t get an answer on the how to pick your scoring move Video so I will do it on a new Video. In the scoring move video it said to lock in on 1 or 2 scoring moves and build counter but in coach Drew’s Egt 2.0 it has me doing tons of different moves year long
so I have basketball can you help me basic drills and some thing passing and DEFENCE to please and thank you
Wow so many good pointers in only a few minutes! Great video as always.
Loved this video thanks
Great stuff Coach. Appreciate the Info! Will start using it immediately.
Wow really impressive deep analysis
Cross step when you get beat not sprint. Try to sprint to a spot with somebody with a handle and they pull back. Its gonna be a long night.
Can you make a post defense video please?
Thank you
I feel that at some point you have to get into proper defensive positioning and then just resist... they will try and bump you... but you earned that positioning... so why keep retreating...
thank u this really helped
Thanks Coach
Rest in peace Kobe😭
Was always taught to always play on strong hand, so does this mean that the second they start dribbling we shift to the other side? Great video
How about at the top of the key
RIP Kobe and thanks for the defensive tips Kevin Love
Can you please make a CC/English Sub. That help people a lot. Thankssss
Thx man
Hey coach, why should we swipe from under and not the top? Wouldn’t both be a foul if contact is landed
Because if you miss the swipe your hands would be up and ready for a contest if the player tries to shoot.
Tomorrow in my b-ball game we’re playing for Kobe rip 😔😢
I have a question, so what is the most important thing when it comes to learning Basketball defense?
Whenever I see Kobe's shoes now I get emotional
0:05 the way the guy with the ball stands looks like he's from a character selection screen
Defense is about dictation. Take the shot in the area I want u to take it and hats off to u if u make it. Great lesson
pure gold
My dad just sent this to me 😁😁😁 for basketball 🏀
RIP KOBE AND GIGI. This is a horrible day.
Kobe shoud be everyones GOAT this days
Mj is still mine
Thanks
3:08 hey that's MJ Fundamentals
LlchLmprgVBrtnXCC _00 yeah he has shown this in his video
Im from Angola, end like you video
I’m bouta be a super defender with this thank you
Video is rlly good
But I guess it could've been a great idea to play a real 1v1 so we can think about all this in real time
And even explain whith slow mo when there was a great defense or explain why the defender got scored on
RIP Kobe
but instead of forcing the man to the baseline with the ball in his his right hand, if he IS right handed, shouldn't we force him to dribble with his left hand?
If you take away the pocket while allowing middle, an easy high rip or a low rip gets him even with you. He now has the ball in his right and can drive, bump and lay it up.
Also forcing him baseline gives him less options and sometimes you can get them out of bounds like that
Ty
thanks... here is to no fouling on defense
love it
This answered all my questions. Thank you!!
Defense is something I take a lot of pride
Oscar Bustamante Same. I hate getting scored on especially when I get a good contest in someone
R.I.p Kobe we love you
What if your playing someone like Korver or rondo would you play them differently?
Korver is more of an off ball player so you wanna be able to get thru screens and run with that player, rondo is a playmaker so you wanna keep you hands moving in the passing lanes and go under screens because hes not the best shooter
The one who dislike the video, don't want to defense
Or they they don't like his defensive techniques just a thought
Must have been harden
Am ned a help to get to the NBA
Bro standing like a robot 0:20
RIP KOBE BRYANT/ Black Mamba we still miss you 😢❤
Rest In Peace to the Legend, Kobe Bean Bryant 💜👑🙏🏾🕊
5:33 he can do a floater
isn't defense a bit more physical than that?
Tribute for kobe pls
My form and dribbles are good but my defence sucksss I need that pat bev class
Syncs you don't need a class to play defence like him. just keep slapping your opponent's arms and hands while simultaneously pushing into him using your body.
Rest In Peace Kobe Bryant and Gigi Bryant. Hope you’re doing Good in heaven with Gigi. We miss you.
this vid was uploaded on the day of kobes passing😢💔 finna work to be a lockdown defender for kobe🤞
one of the best coach drew
Wish I had the chance like those kids to show my talent🏀
How to finish a layup in a fastbreak
I always do this kind of defense, but the screenplay is always your biggest enemy during lockdown
Are you guys in Lynchburg area? Are yall associated with hill city crash?
My first tip, LOWER THAN THEIR HIPS! Get super low on defense
Thanks 4. Tha tip
Tobey Maguire be ballin
when ur a god at defense but cant make a layup
Psychotic Dagedar SAMEEE I’m better at shooting and sometimes make halfcourts but I’m technically the best at DEfense idk I suck
I'm about to play in a tournament
I gonna lock them🦁🇭🇹
I'm 24 but I still want to learn 😅
My man on the left standing like a customisable character lol
What did yall learn
Rest In Perfect Peace to Kobe and Gigi 🙏🏿🙏🏿 2️⃣8️⃣2️⃣4️⃣
Every time I guard relatively far away they throw at me and always score, and every time I guard close they pass me and always score.
What should I do?
Dirty play
That guys gotta be the prettiest basketball player in history
the man on the left in the intro
Rip Kobe
What if he finisher
James harden really disliked this 17 times
Cool
Basically, send them right
Or left if they on the other side.
Yep, i always send them towards their strong hand as shooting of the dribble on that side is harder than the weak side lifting the ball and also allowing a convenient step back.

@@bartholomewlyons some will think that's counterintuitive but if u give enough ground while not allowing a shot in the spot they r in, u can force them into a contested mid range shot tryna swing their hip over to align their elbow with the rim
POV ur on offence waiting for me to finish this video
R.I.P to the mamba
if your opponent beats you and you turn your body which is needed to sprint back, he's just gonna pull back and either take the jumper while you're a mile away or cross it back and beat you completely when u try to recover. defending good players is basically impossible in basketball. that's why nba pros dont put effort into defence
Tell Kawhi or Pat Bev that.. nothing is impossible
paulchaps2303 nothing is impossible if you are allowed to foul like pat bev and don't have to play any offence so you can put 100% of your energy into defence. now kahwi is a different story. his good d doesn't come from fouling, it comes from his quick feet and reflexes and defensive feel combined with his huge wingspan. now how many players have this combination? even so, kahwi can only slow down people like harden or durant, not shut them down. it takes more than one person to shut down good players, but then you leave teammates open. the only option for nba teams is to kinda "out offence" the opponent, if u know what u mean. look at what the rockets are doing now
I get your point but when running back to recover on defense you have to do it skillfully so you don’t get your ankles taken
@@judetheman1562 easy for you to say when even most nba players cant do it
@@sammylam1649 a 2 way nba player exists
Aye 🏀
