A while back, I had an idea I was convinced would work.

Years ago, Nike ran its “Signature Moves” series — short films breaking down the details behind great offensive skills.

I wanted to make the defensive version.

Not just defensive highlights. The actual techniques great defenders repeatedly use:

The Reach Around Steal.
The Sniper Steal.
The Catch Steal.
The Wide Steal.
The Stunt Steal.
The Gap Block.
The Top Lock.

Defense presented the same way that offense was and is: as a craft worth studying.

So I made the series.
And… it never really took off.

Some videos did fine. Most didn’t. Eventually, I stopped making them. But looking back, I still love the idea.

Because one of the things I’ve always wanted to do with Lockdown Defense is make defense feel like a skill players actually WANT to learn.

Something worth studying.
Something worth practicing.
Something cool.
Something that might even interrupt a player's feed full of shooting workouts and dribble moves.

Maybe the series didn't work.
Or maybe I just haven't figured out the right way to do it yet.

Either way, I still believe great defenders have signature moves too.

Here are some of my favorite:

SMALL-SIDED GAMES (SSGs) are a great way to incorporate O & D skills and DECISION-MAKING at the same time!

Emphasize a skill or point of emphasis & get in A LOT of reps in a short amount of time!

SEVEN SSGs EVERY TEAM SHOULD USE IN PRACTICE!

Sometimes the best shots starts with getting to the right spot.

[Tntcoachro @CoachRofromTNT]

Create the advantage.
Recognize it.
Finish.

What's your favorite finish at the rim as a small guard? 👇

Grateful for the recognition. The work continues.
