is it the best way to know to drive is when the defender is giving you a open lane to drive and he don't have any back up defenders so is that the best tiem to drive?
can someoen pelase respond because i'm a good shooter but i always want to learn when to drive
yea im a shooter as well nd am learning better ways 2 drive ...sometimes when i do drive i like 2 do a double-cross or jus try nd split btween defenders..i guess as far as knowing when 2 drive jus try nd take advantage of open seems n the defense
It's easier in transition. Since you're a good shooter, I would guess that defenders would rush at you if you got the ball at the 3pt line. That's when you drive in, when the defender comes rushing at you, that's the perfect time.
to be honest SHOOT! I know it is tempting to drive but most player think they can't shoot but they can! Then once the defender knows you can shoot he will play you closer (to protect the jump shot) once he plays you close drive by him.
If you don't want to shoot you can start driving to one direction and then as soon as the defender cuts you off, cross back to the other direction. Its better if you start off going the direction that you don't want, and then when he takes that away take the opening that you really wanted in the first place.
fake like you're going to drive (jab step, quick dribble forward, etc.) and pull up..Then when they are afraid of your shot, you can pump fake and drive..
Any time they're giving you space, it's like they're making you prove you can shoot. Once you prove that, the game opens up. You can do pretty much anything once they are afraid of you both dribbling AND shooting.
what do you do when the guy is playing really tight in your face defense. i dont have that good dribbles, everytime tthat happens and i put it on the floor, the guy steals it most of the time or i have no where to go and must pass the ball.
i would say to make a couple then when they come out pump fake and then drive right around them thats the easiest way

A little fake would do wonders. ;)
