Play

1-2-2 defense, option pass to the low post from the corner

In this defense, it is very important to defend the high post. There must always be a defender in front to deny the reception since it is the most critical area of our defense.
Our 3 (forward) is responsible for defending the ball handler initially, although there will be rotations in other options. At the top of the zone are 1 and 2, and at the bottom 4 and 5.
In this option we did not trap 2-on-1 in the corner, and when the pass goes to the low post we do a 2-on-1 on that player. The rest of the players adjust to be in help and aware of the passing lanes.
