PHYSICALITY

20 MINUTES

Physical Post Up with Partner

We need the girls to get "sticky" and learn to love contact, learn to use the contact as leverage.

Contact gives us control.

Team Offense LOVES space.

Individual Offense LOVES contact, b/c that can help us create an advantage.

This translates to excellent off-ball screening/sealing, and much improved horizontal rebounding.

Phrases to remember:

• Hit first 

• Stay sticky

• Velcro

• Low woman wins

• Wide

• Truck Legs

• Gortat screen

Start with classic Screen and Roll at the Wing

Will slow down and work into a higher game speed

• Emphasis on SOLID SET SCREEN

• STICKY and Physical Roll to seal

• Finish

Next work on the low post after passing or rolling

Emphasis is creating a STRONG post and reading the defense.

• If defense over plays, seal them to the top for an over head pass

• If defense stays on back, frame their foot with your feet (reverse step into the A)

• Read 

  • • • drop step

      • Reverse

      • Fade

      • Up and Under

      • Rebuild

The shape appears piece by piece...we are what we continuously do...

Championships are not won on the night of the big event, but years before by athletes who commit themselves daily to championship principles.
