Players Always Want Absolutes – ONLY Absolutes in Run and Jump Press
- Don’t Foul
- Protect the Basket
- Rebound the Misses
Don’t Trap TALL Players as Much as SHORTER Players – WHY?
- They usually are NOT going to Dribble
- They can PASS over the Top
If You are Not CLOSE- Don’t JUMP or TRAP
- Opportunities will present themselves
- Straight Up MM periodically works well
When You Trap or Jump- Positions are
- 2 on or switching Ball
- 2 Interceptors
- 1 Protector
Don’t TRAP or JUMP Every Time
- Be Unpredictable
- Creates More Stress
Don’t Push Ball in Same Direction Every Time
- Push Sideline – Push Middle – All Good
- Look to Jump a Pass that is Repeated
Keep Asking Yourself – How Are They Attacking the Press
- Adjust to Take Away What They Want to Do
- Most Opponents Only have One Good Scheme
