[QUOTE="Dayman, post: 1249148, member: 177333"] Does anyone know the exact closeout technique groce teaches? I had a coach who attended his clinic describe it to me quickly one time and it seemed like the opposite of what I had always been taught. I was in a group and didn't catch everything but it was something like closing out not so low to the ground and only with one arm up instead of two. If they are being taught to stand up higher on closeouts then that would explain getting roasted on drives. If I am wrongly describing what is being taught please correct me One thing he does seem to teach is force middle to all the help. I believe this contributes to so many threes against us. Many coaches force baseline and sideline to use them as defenders. I wish we would do this Forcing middle worked better in the days before the 3 point line. Watch tapes of 1980s games on ESPN and you will see it. The game is different now [/QUOTE]
