In the "Post Defense" series Coach Mike uses video analysis and coaching experience to introduce new techniques, tricks and tips to defend against post mismatches.
Part 1 lays the building blocks for physicality, different defensive positions and a subtle trick to prevent a classic post up. Using these starting techniques, defenders should be able to eliminate deep post catches and frustrate an opponent. If the post up becomes a mid-range face-up, the advantage should sway back in favor of the lockdown perimeter defender.
Part 1:
Physical Jam
3/4 Position
The Push Out
Front Position

I'm 5'11 so not tall but often I guard much taller players in the post because I'm strong for my size and pesky. It's really about the physicality, you need to look at it like a battle especially against bigger players. In addition I often do the "wrap around". That's useful if the offensive player already has position. So I try to invite the bounce pass and watch the opposing guards eyes, then when I sense the pass is coming I push the arms of my opponent away to give me an boost and I quickly take one step in front of him and intercept the ball. It works really well especially against inexperienced players.
How do you guard taller players that basically live in the paint and have very accurate point blank shots? I find it super tough to contest their shot
@@arai6147 Against players like these you have at first admit that you won't shut him down. You can make it tough, get him out of his rythm and maybe he has a off night then. Secondly the key to defend players like these is to make sure that you don't let them get into position. Once he has the ball in a good spot it's basically over. You have to get into his knees and hurt him little so that it is uncomfortable for him to get to his spot. You find that often these players will settle for mid range shots over you and sometimes they will make them. If you are athletic these shots will become relatively low percentage tho. Also it's key that you have good help defense behind you so that you can really pressure the offensive player.
"Not tall" im 5'4
@@TenkiGaming It's relative I guess but for a basketball player I'm not tall at all and even amongst the general population I'm average height for a male^^
@@ballislife9924 Maybe cuz I'm asian
My post defense have been weak despite my size
My perimeter defense is great but my post is weak
Thanks for this i hope you add on how to defend once the offensive player receives the ball
As a 5’9, and I happen to expect or anticipate a mismatch. I just pressure the player to prevent him from getting the ball. I do front when it’s really deep but I used 3/4 or Jam on mid range.
Missed you man, can’t wait for more
Amazing analysis, keep the work, one of the best instruction on defense I've ever seen!
Hit the guy with your abdominals - not too strong to avoid a foul call -, and when he gets the ball in the post, keep your arms up and your legs low enough to remain strong, if you can't play the block, put a hand or two in his face. You can also try to strip the ball. If you front, put your hands as much as you can in front of your opponent's hand(s) because he will necessarily catch the ball there. Deny him the possibility of contacting you to get position. Pay attention to the guy who has the ball to see when he will throw it to your player : when the ball is in the air, it's unprotected. Always keep your opponent's feet squared by yours if you're between him and the basket. Try to force a catch as far from the basket and close to the baseline as possible to stuck your opponent. Foul if necessary to prevent a sure basket.
Missed you man ! Defense still needs a revolution. Keep them coming.
Yes! I have been wanting this forever 🔥🔥
Glad you back coach mike
favorit video of my life. pure gold!
Glad to see your comeback
Hey uncle I just got the notification for your post defense video, thanks I'm going to need it for under 16 .
Though I’m smaller I’m usually just as strong or not far off especially in the leg area so I usually match force for a bit to get them to play more physical and Begin to use that against them to then pluck to the ball to a teammate , get a face up, or cause them to turn over or atleast pick up the ball. I also try to stop them from getting great positioning in the paint by trying to dictate them one way then play tall in the end or play pressure defense on them to pick the ball up or turn over. I focus a lot of times to be lower than them for more strength knowing I can’t win in the height category.
Yes!!!! This is good..im always undersized when playing the post
missed these vids bro keep it up
Ty sir im a tall but im thin so i got bullied when someone triest to low post but thanks bc i will gonna apply it sir😄
The G.O.A.T is back
Grandpa ur favourite defense youtuber has uploaded
Love the video, it was exactly what I was looking for actually. Out of curiosity, what are the keys for achieving that forward angle without being off balance and vulnerable to something like a spin move? Thinking about footwork and leg positioning here specifically.
you back!
Back in my Highschool day. No one could get pass me, especially Centers. I would one of the toughest Defender in Under 18 in Thailand for a moment. Miss the good Old Days.
welcome back
Dayum, I didn't realize how small Patrick Beverly is against KD but he still gives him a rough time
Can you Marcus smart defense?
I'm confused by how much physical contact is allowed... I see NBA rules saying a defensive player may not impede the progress of an offensive player. But isn't that exactly what's going on here with the pushing?
As an undersize PF, this is so useful thanks!
How tall are you?
@@XevenYT143 Undersize
Can you do Dennis rodam defense
Thank you coach for great video. But 8 months?
A simple yet effective swim over move to steal/poke the ball away during the post entry pass. I saw it from Thinking Basketball's video on Russell Westbrook (search Russell Westbrook analysis, 2019: Who needs efficiency?) at the 7:00 mark.
Thank you for your comment. It's a great technique. I included it in the Part 2. Thanks for your study and sharing
@@LockdownDefense No problem , Coach ! I have found that timing the swim over move as the pass is being initiated is best. If you time it right the offensive player passes the ball straight into your hands with a lob/or bounce pass. #defenseneedsarevolution
Question wouldn't doing the upward angle pushing you mention (2:20) be risky in pickup games because of lack of referee and offensive fouls?
Good
Yo man can you breakdown James hardens post defense
Bob Angel yeah just don’t play post defense and your James harden
Richard A he's actually a good post defender my guy
He's a excellent post defender and a pretty good parameter defender but effort goes a long way.
i love pulling the chair, they get so triggered when it works
Wdym by pulling the chair?
@@frankg1969 when a bigger offensive player is backing down on you, and you drop back. They will fall and turn the ball over
Yeah that so embarrassing even tho its old trick
Fr I pulled the chair and they fell out of the post then they wanted to fight and got T’d up
Can you make a video helping us against really quick players.
I'm as fast as this person but I feel like he's so quick I cant react quick enough to his blow by.
Im basically looking for away to use my strength to jam his line to the basket.
Take a step back, get your head as low as his chest, absorb any contact and don't commit to any swipes. Quick players want to stay fast and score as much as possible. Try to slow his momentum down as much as possible
Get low, spread your arms, and try to get your chest in their face

My HS basketball starting tomorrow and my team is full of 5'9.
Nice❤sometimes i kick people somewere like with my elbow but the ref can't see. Or i step on their foot and I push them that takes them out of position. I know it's dirty but I have to
Love it, I had a player who always stepped on opponents feet during inbounds and dead balls. Really frustrated guys. Drew many technicals
@@LockdownDefense 😂😂
Isn’t the push out a foul? @3:35 or no?
First of all,you have to make your upper body strong
8 month dam coah
Is it legal to put your forearm on a players back in the post or use your thigh on their butt to hold your ground?
Yes
What about when u do all that and u r face up but they post up again
hopefully the next few videos can help
Coach Mike ok
Get em outta here coachhh
The sad thing about the thumbnail is that... KD abused Pat Bev all-game!!!
He better. Best scorer of all time gets clamped by a guy a foot shorter?
Sell contact in post
