2 on 2 Drive and Kick
Ages: Middle School High School+
Purpose of the Drill:
This drill helps to teach and reinforce the reads and cuts against a defense that doesn't switch.
Instructions
- Offense 1 (O1) makes a dribble move and drives hard into the gap.
- If Defense 2 (D2) steps up to help, O2 fades to corner for jump shot or drive
- O1 passes to O2.
Read #1: Defense helps up
- Offense 1 (O1) makes a dribble move and drives hard into the gap.
- If Defense 2 (D2) helps across, O2 cuts behind (or follows) O1 for jumpshot or drive in the paint.
- O1 passes (or hands back) to O2.
- O1 fills out to wing position after pass.
Read #2: Defense helps Across
Points of Emphasis:
- Player with the ball should drive the ball hard in the gap, ultimately to get to the rim.
- Player without the ball is reading his defender to make the correct cut for a scoring move.
- Importance of ball handler attacking the rim must continue to be emphasized.
- Coach can very the location and angle of the on-the-ball defender.
Motivation/Teaching Tips:
- "Get to the rim" - We want the ball handler attacking the gap to get to the rim.
- After demonstration, the drill should be played at game speed.
