How To Run a 2-2-1 Full Court Press Defense In Basketball, in this video I Breakdown how to Run a 2-2-1 Full Court Press Defense In Basketball. The 2-2-1 Press Defense in Basketball is when you have 2 players playing defense in the full court, 2 players picking up near half to 3/4 court, and 1 player at the back protecting the long pass. The main idea in the full court press is to trap the other teams ball handler at the half court and sideline.

    Great explanation! I am using this with my team in an upcoming tournament because the other teams don’t have strong guards. We also have a deep athletic bench so I can sub freely. Good job coach.
  • Can you compare 221 v 212 ? Would you switch them up according to the situation? When and why? Thank you
  • @markglenday7291
    Hi coach, I run this on a score, and I run my week side players to cover short middle and deep middle so the split line is now covered, which means the opposing team will need to move the ball on the down the wings.
  • @boss429ko
    So if i ran this and switched it up every so often to a 3 2 half court trap do they offset each other nicely?
  • @Romejee16
    how to defend the inbounder taking the ball and running the middle?
  • You forgot to show how to defend if an offensive player flashes middle OR starts their press-break with a player standing center court.
  • A traditional basketball court is way too big to not allow the second row to cross half.

    I ain’t gonna remember this
