VİDEO/ 2-1-2 Zone Defense

[Ahmet Dedeoğlu]

During 5-on-5 drills, we closely examine defensive situations that help us keep the ball from getting to the high or low post
(very dangerous positions because they create advantages for the offense), and try to learn how to behave if the offense
receives the ball in these positions.
If the ball goes in the high or low post, I ask the defenders far from the ball to match themselves with their nearest rival;
every time the ball goes in the high or low post, our defense becomes a man-to- man defense.
It’s not possible to introduce this idea when you build your defense, but you can do it afterwards.

6. Avoid the Catch on the Cuts
We spend a lot of time working against cuts. Our aim is to avoid easy catches on the cuts in the painted area.

Many teams use ball-screens to attack the zone defenses and when you have high screens on the ball, here is what your
players must do:
▼ The defender on the ball must avoid the penetration from the central lane (rule for the first line defenders).
▼ If the player with the ball uses the screen successfully, the defender on the ball follows him to avoid an easy basket.
▼ The defender in the middle must defend against penetrations, while his first line teammate must never defend on the
ball. He has to worry about what might happen on the weak side.

We use many drills that emphasize boxing out. Rebounding is one of the potential weak points with a zone defense and
players have to become conditioned to get in position right away after a shot is taken so they can get the rebound. In
addition to this, we work a lot in running into the fastbreak after the rebound. Using the zone defense, we succeed in
creating many easy fastbreak opportunities, because our rivals (after having attacked a zone defense) are not able to
quickly match themselves with us during their defensive transition.

SUMMARY
Every zone defense can be shaped to fit the particular talents of your team; find the one that you think is best. If you are
not sure about teaching a specific type of zone defense, because you think that zone defense doesn’t fit with your teams’
technical skills, then surely that zone defense won’t be effective.
