Fronting The Post

Our philosophy is to front the post.  I like fronting the post to keep it out and to limit your ability to get us in foul trouble, and it puts our post defenders in better position to help on dribble penetration because they aren't stuck behind the person that they are defending.  But, this drill can be great for your team no matter how you guard the post.

I first saw this drill below watching SMU men's practice when Larry Brown was still coaching them.  In this video, I really like how they finish each rep with a charge, a loose ball, or a steal.  This is something that we will implement about once a week.
