"OFFENSE WINS GAMES BUT DEFENSE WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS."
IT FOR BASKETBALL TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT SKILLS |
"HOW BAD DO YOU WANT IT"On every basketball team, it has a great scorer/player and also it has a great defender. Hence during basketball matches, it is usual that the coaches usually makes the best defender it has to guard the best player on the other team ( in order to reduce the amount of damage this good player can cause the team), and also it is the same case that the other team makes their best defender guard the best player of this team for the same reason.
So imagine it, if there is a team where they do not have just one great defender but instead MULTIPLE Great Defenders that can hold there own against any basketball player it is playing against. The chances of winning it all in any basketball tournament becomes more apparently clear.
It is because of this single reason, which is to win the basketball championship, that makes it very important to develop your defensive skills both individually and as a team.
THE DEFENSE STANCE:
DEFENSIVE SKILLS DEVELOPMENT |
before we go on with describing the stands required and how to properly execute it in the game of basketball, lets first talk about the mind set a proper basketball defender should have during the game.
MIND SET OF A GOOD DEFENDER..
It is just like setting a road block during an accident or construction work. A defender should act and become a road block to whom so ever he or she is guarding during the game of basketball.
It is obvious that as an offensive player in basketball, it is a simple fact that he or she is trying to beat the defender to the basket rim, by using various deceptive techniques in his or her possession during the game. Hence it is the duty of the defender during the game to be firm and not bite into the deception of the offensive player with the basketball. in another word, be a road block / no go area to whom so ever it is you are guarding or playing defense on in the game of basketball.
