How The Spurs Defend The Pick & Roll Part 1

The Spurs play excellent pick and roll defense led by Greg Poppovich. They drop their bigs, Aldridge and Gasol, back while their guards fight hard over the screens. They execute well and it also helps to have swarming defenders such as Kawhi and Danny Green. In this video I go over responsibilities and the late switch. NBA offense.

3:00 Wow, I always criticized Aldridge when seeing him this far away from the attacker. Now I know why lol Too bad that doesn't work with guy like Harden/Curry, they can always step back and shot over the guard : / Also, great video.

The best way to defend the pick & roll and pick & pop is to switch every time while having no player under 6'5.

Toronto Raptors have 2 former Spurs in Danny Green & Kawhi Leonard.😀😀😀😀
Hope this style of defense travels with them.

do you know if this is something they have been doing in previous seasons?

[ReCharredSigh]

coach daniel, can you take a look at the raptors? i heard prior to this season that they were making a conscious effort to have more ball movement, so it'd be cool if you could take a look at their sets and actions and see whether they legitimately are moving the ball now, or whether it's just a mirage.
