Getting more into basketball mode as our first official game of the year is coming up on Monday Nov 28. Here is a great coaching tip on the fast break. In a 2-on-1 situation, the player with the ball should dribble with the ball with the inside hand (right if on the left side, left if on the right side). The reasoning being that it is easier to push bounce pass if the defender comes at you without changing hands, and if the defender keeps going back, you can swipe to the outside and go by the defender easier as well. Here is video explaining it some more (fast forward to 3:20).
This tip comes via The Tribe, which is the blog setup by Rick Torbett and the ones behind the Read and React system.
