How to DESTROY a ZONE DEFENSE - Basketball Offense Breakdown Concepts

There are more including alternating the three mentioned above as I learned from my High School JV Coach Terence Saulney out of New Orleans La. The defensive mistake is usually revealed in the passing Transition from one side of the court to the other. Its like fishing in a barrel.

Excellent content 🔥

Nba defense = 0... use european teams instead 😢

HIGH LOW action. There's the simple answer

The irony of there being multiple Celtics clips here when they looked pitiful vs The Heat's zone....

Can someone show this to Joe Maz and the Celtics?

It's funny that Celtics were the first team in this video and just got demolished by a Zone.

It really useful for my juniors

Yep, many NBA players so used to playing Man to Man, they actually are really poor at Zone. The first few clips, there were defenders not moving to help, and instead defending empty space.

The NBA IS STUPID IN DEFEATING THE ZONE DEFENCE...ASIA VIDEOS AND EURO IS THE BEST THERE IS..The defensive players specialy the CENTERS here in this video doesnt even know how play zone defence,or the role thy should to be a lockdown zone defensive teams
OMG they all look like junior varsities

First example (Lakers VS Utah), that's not a defense. Stoped watching there

This examples are great against a team, which does not know zone defense. Mostly, we saw 2 3 defense, which was the wrong setup against that offense.
Good coaches teach it different and teams can switch anytime in a different form.

Very informative

Thank you

Good material

So have Lebron on your team got it

song name?

They dont know how to make a real zone defense. Look in Europe and you will see the difference. Here, it looks like children making zone.

Muy buen video!

Why is her name Tzuyu?

Shouldn't it be Tziyu or Tzeyu?

Can someone from Taiwan confirm whether her name is pronounced closer to Tzu or Tzi/Tze in her native language?

A lot of these just look like bad defenses. Where you can't tell if they are in a 2-3, 3-2 or a 1-1-3. And some reason the baseline end player keeps getting beat baseline for no reason other than not paying attention.

Should be re-titled as "How to destroy a zone defense if you've got a team of professional players". Beating (and being in) a zone is a whole lot different when you've got to respect the NBA 3-point line, when you can chuck ally-oops or when you've got players like Jason Tatum hitting tough contested shots.

You need commentary over this.

Great Video to demonstrate how to break down the zone

Ball movement. That simple.

High post to basseline cut isn’t that just a back door?

Nice breakdown

3 things to break zone defense:
1. Hight post passer
2. Baseline cut for dunker
3. 3 point shooting

Looks like Iannis did have an offense system in MTA after all

These zone defenses aren't actually proper zone defense.

Watching because you can apply this to 2k as well

Great video

Give up the free throw line. Just let them practice free throw shots. Protect the rebound.

Still gotta apply ball pressure in zone that's the point

So helpful clip...
Thanks a lot...

Lo que me hace gracia es que en NBA le llamáis a eso defender....

the way to counter ofense is stay behind them, its gonna work

cool video but annoying music

this shows how defence in Europe is way tougher

Watching some nba players attacking zone-D seems so unnatural.

los americnos no saben defender la zona.

2-1-2 zone?

Sorry, novice on NBA here. Doesn't the 3 second rule apply? I see a lot of defenders stationed for more than three seconds inside the paint. Have I understood the rule incorrectly?

informative ..newbie here

Zone defense is for poor defenders

Exelent!

This is a good video

Best video about zone offense!

Probably the best video on beating a zone defense loved it! Highly conceptual!

embarrassing defensive positions
