I am a big believer that half court defense starts full court and that you can’t be a great defensive team without being great in converting to defense to force your opponent to play against your half court defense.
The video is 5 minutes of Ohio State Coach Chris Holtmann going through his Conversion Defense System.
His system utilizes the 3 rebounders to the offensive glass when the shooter lifts for the shot, along with a fullback and halfback. Coach Meyer called the 3 offensive rebounders the “tailbacks”
Coach Holtmann goes into the initial roles for the fullback and halfback.
