Michigan won the title last night because of its defense. That's no surprise. But I'm becoming increasingly convicted through coaching against it and watching it that if you have the personnel, switching 1–4 with your 5 in drop is one of the best defensive systems you can run. It kills actions early and forces offenses out of their flow. Most teams end up defaulting to isolation or mismatch hunting, which slows everything down and plays right into the defense’s hands. And when you pair that with a legit rim-protecting 5, even the cracks that do show up aren’t clean, because there’s still size waiting at the rim. At every level, teams think they can handle switching, but most don’t have real answers once they’re forced to play outside of what they practice. Another reason why it's so important to practice against every coverage and empower your players to continue to find solutions against it! Most problems I've seen at the HS level and even some college level has been against SWITCHING defenses that are aggressive!

A simple action that I think is going to continue to pop up more and more? Get - Keep I love Gets because of their ability to accomplish a lot of the same things you want your ball screen to do. The thing that is fantastic about them, however, is their keep-ability. If the defense plays at the level, or switches, or in any way gives you space to attack... the Keep option is LETHAL. Great potential action for younger team too!
