Villanova 1-2-2 Press Defense

Villanova's 1-2-2 Press Defense is a great defense to either slow a team down or speed them up. This is one of my favorite presses to run since you can catch your opponent by surprise since you can switch up the defensive coverage.

Great coaching! Shoutout to my coach, Coach Connors in Fl. " If we miss the shot, regular defense. If we make the shot, full court press!

I got benched cuz I screwed this up so this is like my fourth time watching this.

Came here to see how full court press defense using 1-2-2 or 2-1-2 is used and how I can try to coach my team to play against without getting flustered. Such a great video!

Coach Mo if you see this they communicated well, they wasn’t being lazy on defense, they did was they supposed to do, and no one played hero they all played their right positions and right spots and the steals came to them.

Donte, JB, & Josh all being on the Knicks is crazy in hindsight! And Mikal’s not too far in Brooklyn….for now👀

If your a hooper and you a played a team that played this defense you know it was a tough day

Man post that championship game defense. I'm pretty sure on back to back to back possession. I saw Nova play man to man, zone, press into a zone, press with traps. I was so confused. I could imagine for players on North Carolina they were too lol. They did an outstanding job in mam to with that heat style defense. by fronting the post and coming over with help on lobs from the weakside. Totally threw a wrench into NC offense.

This place is something I will be using within my team. With the aggressiveness of our 1-2, I think it is a viable play for us to use if our intentions is to force steals and turnovers.

1:26 was def off nova's foot lmao

[dylanhawkins]

Ever hs varsity team should eventually try this press out

[dinov]

I'm a coach so thanks for this! Which NBA team runs this the best?

[billybobobacious]

1:50 Uh, ref, did you notice that double dribble....

[berryboy]

I'll always be bench if coach plays this formation 💀

[buddysalinas]

it will not work if you have a no fear point guard who loves to dance. try it on Kyrie or Curry or to the old Jason Williams. 122 press defense will be a joke.

[vipervon]

The defense is tough but the team score is poor.

[blackandblueeagle]

this is terrible press offense. nba players would murder a press like this.
