Pick and Roll Defense: Fighting Over
Purpose
Teaching players how to fight over and properly defend the ball screen
Drill Setup
Split team into groups of four, two on offense, two on defense, with each group at their own basket
Ball handler starts out on the wing, screener on opposite block with defense matching up
How it Works
Screener comes up to set pick for ball handler
Screener's defender calls out screen location to teammate
Ball handler uses screen, forcing on ball defender to fight over the screen
Screener's defender in drop coverage, staying a couple feet below the free throw line, protecting the hoop but also far enough out to contest a mid range pull up if the on ball defender has trouble with the screen
Coaching Tips
The Screener's defender must call out which direction the screen is coming from, alerting the on ball defender to the action and allowing them to get into position
Before starting the drill, walk players through the whole action step by step so that they understand where to be and what is expected of them
When the on ball defender knows the screen location, they should begin to slide in that direction, preparing to fight and get their lead leg above the screener, allowing them to shuffle around them while
staying with the ball
Explain that this coverage is designed to prevent shooters from getting an open look behind the screen, for non-shooters,
simply have the on ball defender go under the screen

But if the player slides towards the screen before it comes, doesn't that allow the ballhandler to simply reject the screen and dribble into space?
