Coaches and programs are being evaluated by the number of games won rather than their program model and teaching abilities. Constant full court games and tournaments, especially on the lower levels, have replaced teaching and skill development. However, winning is short term. The real success and satisfaction in coaching comes with teaching and assisting <strong>ALL<\/strong> of your players to become the best they are capable of becoming &#8220;ON&#8221; and &#8220;OFF&#8221; the court.

When teams walk the ball up the court, they are much easier to defend because the defense is able to get its players back into positions near the basket where they can execute pressure denials and traps. However, when teams continuously push the ball up the court and flow into early offense, it can prevent or hinder the best of pre-planned defensive disruption scenarios by forcing the defense to &#8220;react&#8221; rather than &#8220;act or attack.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Off season and pick-up games create bad defensive transition habits. In these unorganized games, players have a tendency to hang back on offense (&#8220;Cherry Pick&#8221;) rather than hustle back on defense. As a result, during the season, coaches have their work cut out in establishing good defensive transition habits. Good transition defense really starts with good offense. When players take good care of the ball and take good shots along with strong offensive rebounding and defensive balance, it makes it difficult for the opponent to push the ball. However, do not do not leave defensive transition up to chance.
