Hello:

I want to learn some knowledge about zone defense. Before I saw some videos of zone defense, bu I can not understand totally. I know the basic zone set,what i do not understand is how to rotate. I mean when somebody cut from outside to inside or other side, how the defender to react? The defender will follew the cutter,and then the rotation will happen, I do not understand the principle of rotation. Please give me some help about that. Thanks for reading. Goodluck
