Fast break layup notes Take a moment to imagine how two cars merge on the highway. One smoothly passes in front of the other, adjusting speed to match the flow of the highway. Now, if the car in front decides to decelerate, the car following him must adjust quickly. Their reaction time, if it takes too long, can cause an accident. Now, in basketball, this is a prime example of how to draw a foul on the fast break layup. Force the defending player behind you to adjust their speed and avoid running into you. You'll notice guards like Stephen Curry and Damian Lillard use this against larger defenders. As they bump into you, it takes away their jumping angles, and usually the referee will call a contact foul at this point (simply due to momentum). Hit the layup- And one. I've actually never hit this shot before, but seen it explained in coaching videos all over the place. The situation presented itself during our rec game on Monday, and I had a chance to try it out. Got the bucket, and the and one. 🏀 #CoachEroo #getbucketseveryday #getbuckets #bballislife #playforkeaps #keapathlete #operationbasketball #basketballcoach (at San Diego County, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8ey9D4hPiU/?igshid=nx8n7732hrlg
