This course is a step-by-step build of a no-middle, “keep it sided” half-court defense. Coach Paul Page walks you through layered NBA-style closeouts (inside-foot, hand-in/hand-off), ball pressure and footwork, rebounding habits, and communication standards (“ball, ball… dead!”). You’ll progress from catch-and-shoot fly-bys into “guard-it” holds, shot-fake drives with the defender’s jump-back, and an eight-second guard segment ending in “shot and box.”
