About This Play/Drill

2v2 Choke is a #PackLine Drill to teach team post defense. "Choking the post" by the guard and "walling up" by the post defender combine in an effort to get the ball out of the post box. By choking the guard reduces the space the post has to make a move. See video below for game application of this drll ft. the Virginia Cavaliers (NCAA).

  • Set Up: ballside wing & ballside post

    X5 is 3/4 fronting to keep ball out of the post box

  • On post entry, X5 pops behind to wall up

  • X5 must use chest, arms up, keep feet moving. Become a "wall on wheels" and brace for contact.

     

    X2 stunts before 5 dribbles...

  • ...after 5 puts it on the floor X2 digs. Hard dig off a non-shooter, short dig off a shooter.

     

    X5 continues to wall up

  • 2 relocates either higher or lower. X2 must dig the ball out but not so aggressively to give up 3PA.

  • On the pass out X2 closes out, X5 gets back to a 3/4 front
