Pack Line Ball Screen Defense
Ball screen offense has become the go-to system for basketball programs at almost every level. As a result, teams must be able to defend ball screens and all the associated actions. Arizona head coach Sean Miller, a three-time Pac-12 Coach of the Year, shows you how to establish an easy system that can effectively shut down any ball screen you will face.
Coach Miller starts from the ground up and uses on-court demonstration to show you exactly how it is done. Starting with closeouts, Miller progresses to a help defense that defends ball screens in any defensive scheme that is run.
Vegas Closeouts
Good man-to-man defense starts with being tough on the ball. Coach Miller demonstrates for you three variations of the Vegas Closeouts Drill. You will see how players increase pressure on the ball and handle fakes without giving up an advantage. Two variations of the drill teach players how to stunt and recover against dribble penetration.
Side Ball Screens
On side ball screens, Coach Miller uses a “jump” technique to stop the ball. It’s similar to a hard hedge as it prevents the ball handler from turning the corner. It also allows the on-ball defender to get over top of the screen and prevent the other defender from fouling. The “jump” technique also helps defenders disrupt the pick and roll as Miller demonstrates. You will also see how to communicate ball screen coverages even in loud-game scenarios.
Middle Ball Screens
To defend ball screens in the middle of the floor, Coach Miller shows you several defensive concepts. One is the “plug” technique which allows the defender guarding the screener to help and take away a ball handler’s ability to shoot a 3-pointer while still recovering to the screener. You will also see how you can use the “jump” tactic to these types of screens. Miller also employs the “weak” strategy where defenders force a dribbler toward help against flat ball screens.
Pack Line Defense Ball Screen Breakdown Drills
The success of any defense comes down to the quality of the drills used to reinforce the concepts. Coach Miller shows you three drills he uses to defend multiple ball screens.
2-on-2 Ball Screen Defense Drill: Teaches the on-ball and screener’s defenders to defend sideline, middle, and step-up ball screens.
3-on-3 Ball Screen Defense Drill: Teaches defenders how to help on middle ball screens with a roll and replace and a sideline pick and pop using an “X” technique
Van Gundy Ball Screen Drill: Teaches teams to defend multiple ball screens in one possession in a 5-on-5 situation.
Coach Miller’s success speaks for itself and part of it is because of the defense Arizona plays. Use Miller’s principles and concepts to develop a consistent approach to defending and conquering ball screens. Rent this ball screen pack line defense DVD today.

2-3 Zone Defense: Taking Away 3-Pointers & Creating Turnovers
Joe Gallo coached Merrimack College to an NCAA record for most wins by a program in its first year after reclassifying to Division I. Merrimack went 20-11 in 2019-20 and 14-4 in the Northeast Conference which was good enough for first place.
What has been part of Gallo’s success as a head coach is a defense that routinely was in the top-5 in the nation in turnover percentage and steals. In this video, Gallo goes into the coverages and positions of his zone defense and how to defend different offensive alignments. He begins with a look at his philosophy.
Philosophy & Mindset
Gallo’s defensive philosophy is to use a zone defense and prevent easy shots. Players are taught to develop a mindset of allowing no 3-pointers, no easy layups, and only giving up contested 2-point shots. Offensive players can never simply catch and shoot.
Coach Gallo’s zone defense has five main rules:
Move on the flight of the ball.
Hands never drop below your waist.
Stay down (no ball fakes, no shot fakes).
Don’t get screened.
Nobody shoots from where they catch the ball.
Using Zone Defense
Going through each position, Coach Gallo reviews the different slides, closeouts, and responsibilities. He explains the angles players should take when closing out, how to move and what actions to anticipate. For the zone to work, all five players must be in the correct position at all times.
Coach Gallo talks about the different ways the zone defense can be beaten. He reviews what to do when the ball goes into the short corner, the middle, and when dribble penetration occurs. He also shares drills and breakdowns that work against stopping each of these stresses on the zone defense.
If you are a coach looking for a stifling zone defense, this is it. Coach Gallo does a great job of breaking down each piece of the zone puzzle in an easy and understandable way. This is must-have for your defensive library.

The 1-2-2 Press - Three-Quarter
University of Iowa head coach Fran McCaffrey has built winners everywhere he has been. His Hawkeyes have made seven postseason trips in his ten seasons. One of the reasons for Coach McCaffery’s success is his 1-2-2 press. In this presentation, he shows you how the press can be used in a variety of ways and how any coach can adapt it to fit any coaching style. Using on-court demonstration, you get an in-depth look at four different versions of the 1-2-2 three-quarter court press: Traditional, Grey, Late-Game, and Contain.
Traditional
It all starts with the basics. Coach McCaffery explains each player’s role and responsibility within the press. You learn how to read an opponent’s attack, which will help in later versions of the press. McCaffery shows you how to trap at half-court and get the late trap in the front court. He also shows you how to fall back into the 1-2-2 zone and how to morph into a 2-3.
Switching
When teams figure out how to break the traditional 1-2-2 press, you can call “Grey” which is faster-paced pressure defense. It looks like the traditional press but then switches to man-to-man principles after the first pass. Opponents are forced to put the ball into the hands of poor ball handlers which opens up scoring opportunities.
Late Game
A third option in McCaffrey’s pressure system is Late Game. When you are looking to seal a lead, you can use this option to force teams to dribble more and use more clock. By forcing opponents to dribble more and pick the ball up, you can also create 10-second calls. Teams are forced to go east-west instead of up the court.
Contain
Used to finish off an opponent, “Contain” forces opponents into multiple traps. You will learn how you can get the ball out of the hands of your opponent’s best ball handler. Contain also forces a lot of bad decisions which lead to turnovers and scoring opportunities.
If you have a team that is built for pressure, Coach McCaffery’s 1-2-2 zone press is for you. You will see how to create pressure and indecision. It also creates uncertainty as you learn to disguise the defense. There are a multitude of strategies in this DVD that can help any coach and team become successful. Rent this 1-2-2 press DVD today.
