EVERY GOOD DEFENDER DOES THESE 2 THINGS ⬇️ First off, defense is 90% effort and energy, I wholeheartedly believe in that. Every good defender gives great effort initially on defense, the second thing they do is give a great 2nd and 3rd effort to disrupt the offense when they... show more

The difference between good & great Effort and energy level are two things that great players never have to be coached on.

D'Angelo Russell ended that 3rd quarter with nothing but pure effort and has the Lakers up at the moment. Hitting his shots but most importantly, PLAYING DEFENSE. Great help side defense, great close out and then gets the steal. All JJ asks for from Dlo is effort, and he's giving that right now with a team high +/-

“We’re not here to coach your energy level and your effort, that’s a given. The difference between a really good player and a great player is that, great players don’t get tired,” Geno Auriemma The effort you put in today determines your opportunities for tomorrow.

Why can't we have nice things? Last year, Miami's offense was elite, but the defense held them back. They fixed the defense this year, and now the offense is a problem. Will the offense and defense ever been good at THE SAME TIME? Locked On Canes

"I think Mikal's a great defender. I think he's really good at what he does. I also think when you're up every screen and you put two on the ball every single time, my job is to get rid of it" Tyrese Maxey was asked about Mikal Bridges' defense on him:

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander on the Spurs defense. “They have multiple guys that are tenacious, they get into the ball, and then they have Wemby behind them, and they know that, and they do that to their strength. So obviously, a really good defense. They've been a really good defense for a year, and to score on them, it's gonna take quick decisions, smart decisions, the right decisions, you gotta be really good offensively and really sound.”

Iowa is ‘really good:’ “They’re really good because they’re really well-balanced. Their post players are really good. They’re smart. They’re tough. They finish around the basket. They make 8 or 9 threes a game. So it’s a good team that can do two things really well. They can score with their bigs in the lane, and their transition offense is really, really, really good. A lot of times when you have a great transition offense, you’re not throwing the ball in the lane a lot. But I think they’re going to be a real challenge, a real test for us to see how good our defense really is. And especially our post defense. They’re really good though. They’re really good.”

“There’s nothing more important for our guys than being a good teammate. Every player has an opportunity to help our team by being a better teammate than they’ve been in the past. That’s how they give to their effort, learning, and what they give to their teammates,” Pete Carroll

For the "they don't play defense" crowd. NBA defense is more complicated than you probably notice in real time, and these guys oftentimes nail every single decision. Great job here by the Hawks forcing the 24 second violation.

DO YOU HAVE THE MOTOR TO BE THE BEST PLAYER? Players underestimate how hard it is to be the best player on a team or on the floor every night. To go out and score the ball while impacting the game in multiple ways takes alot of energy, effort, and resilience. Then, to go out and do that consistently on a night in and night out basis is even harder.

Mark Daigneault said something that should reshape how every defender thinks about the game: “The players are too talented and the teams are too good to let them have their way… What does the opponent want the game to look like — and how can we disrupt that?” That’s not just a quote. It’s a defensive philosophy. Too many defenders grow up thinking defense is about reacting — sliding laterally, staying in front, and seeing what will happen to them. But at the highest levels, the offense isn’t going to beat itself. If you allow great players to dictate where they go, when they go, and how they go, you’ve already lost the possession. What Daigneault is really describing is disruptive control. The idea that defense isn’t passive, but active. Rhythm is offense’s greatest weapon, and disruption is defense’s. The best defenders don’t wait to react to what the offense is doing. They decide what the offense is allowed to do. They determine the terms of engagement. That is one of the biggest mindset shifts for developing defenders.

We might look back on this play as the moment of the season when the #Browns turned the corner. This whole team blocking effort to get a first down and set up the game winning FG is phenomenal. They simply imposed their will on the 2nd toughest defense in the league. #DawgPound

Ferris State HC Tony Annese - Offensive Philosophy - Have a system built to attack every defense. 4-2-5, 4-3, 3-4, 3-3 Stack, etc. Have a built-in game plan to attack every defensive system. - Adaptability and flexibility is essential to have a good offense. Do not always let down and distance own you. - Win first down and you will win the game. Stay ahead of the chains. - Stay a step ahead of the opponents' defensive game plan. Play selection & the construction of the system is based on "take what the defense gives us". That means develop a system that identifies & attacks the vulnerabilities of a given defense. Have contingencies in the arsenal to take advantage of all situations a defense presents. - Always have the option to run THE OPTION. Have the ability to read a multitude of players taking advantage of option principles.
