Dre Baldwin: How To Defend Bigger Player In The Post | Defense In The Paint Power Forward Center

[L0ck0ut1]

@xluckysevensx if Ur gonna get pinned learn how to chest wen they get the ball cause they will without doubt, if u have long arms u can try a sidestep wen u see the pass coming wen u conact their arm u can usually safely hit the pass away and not get a foul called cause they r holding Ur body with their forearm u may get burned while trying to prefect this move

[here2there4life]

Hey man ur video taught me something but i was wondering how do you guard thepost player whos trying to back you down?

[dreupt]

@here2there4life i have vids on that also. search on my channel & How-To Playlist

[xluckysevensx]

whenever i try fronting a bigger stronger guy i have problems because they will push me back behind them with their arms. does this just mean that i have to hit the weights harder and gain weight or what else should i try?

[dreupt]

@xluckysevensx u will figure something out or ull continue to get scored on. the answers are not on YouTube

[dreupt]

@RJaxz get low and attack their dribble before they get close to the basket. a skilled bigger guard will always be able to get a good look over you.

[AceofDlamonds]

@dreupt

cool I read this only now but I did exactly that today in a game at the YMCA. I just attacked the big guy's dribble while he was mid-dribble and scanning...

[ericsofine]

This is how I broke my ankle a year ago :( fronted, and the guy threw a pass over the top, I jumped, and to my fault was leaning back while jumping (cause it was coming down so I thought I'd have a better chance to nab it falling away) instead of jumping straight up, guy stood still and stuck his leg under me and I fell over it as I was landing and broke it :( 6 weeks out, btw you should update your "what you eat" pics, made me laugh when I saw all the fruit snacks ahah

[dreupt]

@ericsofine sorry to hear that. the post about what i eat is really pics of what i ate that week; there is nothing to update.

[Rahulrocks1569]

How do you avoid a block while driving in against a much bigger defender?

[dreupt]

@Rahulrocks1569 depends on situation. watch my Scoring Moves Playlist

[dreupt]

@TheChampion14145 im a free agent, no draft

[carlos110393]

but if you defend in front of him his team can pass him balls over you

[dreupt]

@carlos110393 there are 4 other defenders out there. yes it sounds simple but it is not

[hotdogexp]

Hey Dre have you ever lifted legs real heavy doing legs and feel like you have no more explosion?

[dreupt]

@hotdogexp right after lifting there is fatigue but not, say, a week later

[hotdogexp]

@dreupt so you still put in shots after? cuhz in one of your vids you said you like to lift before practices

[dreupt]

@hotdogexp sometimes.

[Diviniteee]

If you're smaller and fronting him, can't they put a forearm on you and keep you in front of them while they get the lob over the top?

[dreupt]

@Diviniteee there are other defenders. maybe it works, maybe not. depends on the situation

[Wade3KG]

the player on your team who was guarding the guy that scored should be watching this video

[dreupt]

@Wade3KG ha

[ccutec]

Dre Can you make a video about how to defend player more athletic than you ?

[dreupt]

[Anerd8]

thx bro i always play wit the 8th graders n theyre big but can u make a vid how to defend em when they r backing down on u?

[dreupt]

@Anerd8 if they start backing u down and are bigger then ur pretty much done. dont let them catch the ball.

[juumdd]

can you show how to finish against a more athletic big man?

[dreupt]

@juumdd yeah when i play against one, later this summer

[LeanderRyzing]

If hes smart though hell use his strength to bump you as he turns to get the lob. At least what I do. That works for me unless thers a tight help D waiting.

[dreupt]

@LeanderRyzing remember we are in zone D and i can out-jump him. a lob would have to be so high my teammate could steal the pass
