I consider myself somewhat of specialist on boxing out, and I agree 100% with this video. I was the starting center on my JV basketball team my freshman year, but never grew after that. Boxing out bigger and stronger players was the only way to make up for my lack in hight. Now that I'm coaching, I find it's actually harder to teach the tallest players boxing out because they're so used to just standing there and letting the rebound fall in their hands.
I’ve seen that same problem in my career too. I also see that same issues with guards who have a huge vertical. They always want to our jump everyone and they give up costly ORebounds when the ball bounces weird. Glad you enjoyed the vid. What level do you coach?
I learned from coach mike of bball breakdown that it is better to go and track the trajectory of the ball and get in position after a shot rather than to look for your man and box out then track the ball to get rebounds
I looked up his videos, and wasn’t able to find what you were referring to. I’m curious if the examples he showed of this were from NBA clips (like most of his content). If they were, I would say that NBA defensive strategies are very different than college & high school. The concept you described would make sense at the NBA level, but I could go into detail about why that would not be wise to do in college/high school. But I appreciate the comment & will look more into this!
@@TheFilmRoom1 he doesnt make a specific video on boxing out, but he does mention this in his videos (i think the warriors vs kings playoff series, he was criticizing Domas boxing out). I also agree that this only applies to hs/college level. But i am curious about the reasons tho
I don’t think NBA players crash the offensive glass like college players do. Most coaches at the college level teach to crash 3, 4, and 5 and you will rarely, if ever, see an NBA team do that. Reasoning for that I would guess is just the length of season and the extra 8 minutes per game that they play. I would like to watch that video tho, because I watched that entire series and Looney was killing them on the glass.
