Great video Coach, we as basketball fans love these on court breakdowns from such a great basketball mind. Every time I watch these types of videos and CourtCall my basketball IQ creeps up a little. I can honestly say that your breakdowns have made me a much wiser sports fan. Keep up the great work.

I absolutely agree. It was hard to determine who was on offense and who was on defense.

As an aspiring coach, this channel is great for learning about shots, moves, defenses, etc... Keep up the awesome work. I am learning so much.

Great help as a coach, constantly going up against a 2-3, usually hooking up deeps wing 3s, a great set, great stuff.

Great video. Would love to see some in game footage in future breakdowns as means of comparison. These slower breakdowns are good however they don't convey the speed of a real game.

thanks for posting this. I was playing last night, and it had been a long time since I had gone against a zone. felt completely out of sync and I just wasn't playing my game. I was setting up in the slot and hitting the high post, but I really stagnated once I got the ball there. I wasn't attacking the basket. I needed this reminder to help me out

Coach, this is absolutely amazing stuff. Thank you and keep up the great work!

Thank you so much coach nick, in Australia the 2-3 zone from where I'm from is basically the only type of defence they use. Defiantly gonna try. Once again thanks!

I 100% love this video. I'm going to utilise the sets in our upcoming pre season tournament. (Results to follow!!!) I've been searching for and toying with hundreds of zone sets over the last few weeks and this suits my personel perfectly! Thank You!

tthanks coach. i find this useful because tourneys here employ 2-3 zone since it only lasts for a day. tournaments are played round robin style so there are 4-5 games in a single day so playing man to man will tire the heck out of the players.

Your channel is so helpful! Thanks Coach!

Coach, you're awesome. I would love to see you coach in the NCAA or even NBA, or have your own show on ESPN

Great vid, just a couple suggestions as we're taught how zone defense works pretty early in Europe. 1) Dark/White shirts to separate teams, please :) 2) The freeze dribble is cool, but in a real zone defense only one guard is supposed to attack the ball before the drive even happens. Even if he dribbles around, a switch will happen just as in a regular 1on1 defense. 3) We don't get sucked in by a cutter, we bump them. It looks like all we do when using a zone is moving around waiting for stuff to happen, but no. One guy will attack the ball handler as soon as he gets close to the 3-point line (even if it's not a box+1 zone) and everyone will pick the guy closest to him, trying to prevent them from cutting/driving comfortably and communicating all the time for cuts, screens, switched and all. So this form of attack might work against a very soft zone defense but most of that motion gets disrupted as soon as the cutters can't finish their move comfortably and people know how to rotate. In my experience, entering the ball through the high post is always the best option against 2-3 and then have your post man move the ball to either the corner, guard or low post depending on the space but most of the time it all comes down to have the whole defense collapse to one side, then use the extra space.

Great video! A recommendation I have is to put jerseys at least on one side of the ball (for one team) just to clearly separate the players on each team to make it easier to view and understand! Still a great video and a great channel! I look forward to your next video.

Its time for how to attack a 3-2 zone, Coach Nick!

Wish their was more channals like this more opinions ore views this is great

i like this vid coach, im showin this to my coach!

This is a great video Coach Nick! Can you comment quickly on how to reset (in the first example) if that high post cut is covered? Who rotates back to the high post position if/when the ball is swung back around?

The celtics need to watch this video lol

Amazing. Please give us more stuff like this!

Thanks for the insightful video!

I needed this video. When I go to the local park all they play is zone. If you pick a shooter or two you can stand a chance, but other than that good luck getting any type of team offense in a pick up game.

a lot of stuff please i want to learn more about basketball. it really helps me alot to work out on my game bballbreakdown is such a great channel. and now i can simply play my game not forcing so many shots and create offense to my teammates and defense.

Please post more videos like this... Great Video!!

Local League defences all over Britain would shudder at the sight of this video.

I like the dribble over and then reverse pass, but if the opposite guard is disciplined a lot of the time he wont follow you, leaving a long and dangerous pass past him to the wing. That also means the wing has to come up higher to give you an angle and that disrupts the offense. I prefer to use that dirbble and then go to the high post, since this makes the guards collapse and then he can kick either way, especially since he usually has a height advantage. Both work though

Great examples. Only one small detail: the cutter doesn't necessarily suck the defender in. He can be denied his cutting trajectory or even ignored and called for the rest of the defense so they know someone's cutting. It still works, but in a different way because, if the zone is performed properly, in either case the defender won't leave his space for the secondary cut to happen so easily. There's usually some misconception about zone defense. There's a lot of contact (sometimes even more than 1-1 defense) because you tend to deny cuts and take the contact instead of chasing the cutter. You don't just sit around waiting for people to shoot 3s.

Interesting video Coach! Like it

I will have fun playing offense against a 2-3 or 1-3-1 now! Great stuff

Thank you sir! This helped me a lot!

Lots of movement is the key to defeating a zone defense. Coach is right.

Great video Coach! I've got playoffs soon to come for my team for which I play and partially coach and we had some problems attacking 2-3 zone, but this is pure gold. Thank you!

Suggestion: A video on breaking a full court press. Since its something all young players struggle with from time to time

Thanks you this was great

Coach still coachin’. “...and a foul...” 😂 05:10...it’s a demonstration!

thx a lot... have been looking for this a long time ago. really hate 2-3 zone

great vid. i think it would benefit from having the offensive and defensive guys wearing clearly different colours - just a suggestion for future videos! cheers

Coach I have a question. The passer who makes the initial cut, where does he go after he makes the cut? Because if these quick options are not available how does the offense progress to get other shots? Really like your channel, i'm a first year coach and this channel helped my team get in the playoffs!

nick usuaully gives nba examples. i would like to see that here so its in real time

2-3 zone is so rare in the NBA. I've never seen it. At that level it would be too easy to break it down and (most importantly) you have the defensive 3 second rule so it's nearly impossible to keep a defender in the paint all the offense has to do is spread the floor run a side pnr and you're screwed.

Best Breakdown EVER!

Thanks coach.

thank you coach this is really gonna help ma team😊

Thanks coach, this is soooooo goooooood

Thanks for this coach! I usually play the off guard position. It's important to be reminded to make good cuts after making the pass to the slot or elbow. Also it's important to dribble against the zone and not just pass around it. Basic and important.

this helps so much in my nba 2k14

Nice! Its like an Overload Play! it adds spices....!

"Yeah! And the foul" haha cracks me up

Do more of these vids coach!

If you want to learn more about 2 3 zone defense & offense, I suggest you watch SyraCuse BasketBall.

Hey coach can you do a video on Help Defense on a 2-3 Zone? Like how the center and the 2 back forwards should rotate should an offensive player on the perimeter beat the defensive guard.

Very, very good video. A little minus for all the plain t-shirts though. Go and get some colored bibs ;)

awesome coach :)

I like the Kansas Jayhawks approach of quick passes all around the perimeter & skip passing, drag dribble from the wing 2 steps downward, as opposed to Top of Key freeze dribble. Coach Bill Self calls it "Hot Potato."

Hey can u make a video on how to play a 2-3 zone defense effectively?

thank you ^^

I love to use a screen off the top finding the cutter b/c depending on skill level of team they wont be paying attention to them

Coach, what about the point guard splitting the top either for: 1) a floater or a jumpshot from 10 feet?; or 2) kickout to the perimter shooter or 3-point shooter?; or 3) sneak a drop pass or bounce pass to a teammate who slides near the basket along the baseline?

Coach you should do vs on defend in the 90s vs now

Good video. Would have been great if you'd had the players wear jerseys so our eyes could differentiate offense vs defense.

Great video, love the concepts. Next time could you get the offense and defense to wear the same color t shirts, it got a bit confusing at times

Coach, please take a look at last night's game on April 8th, Brooklyn @ Miami. Final play in the 4th quarter with 6 seconds left to go. Was Plumlee's contest on Lebron's shot a block or a foul? I HAVE TO KNOW!
