This defensive conversion drill is from former Loyola Marymount and Charlotte Bobcats (now the Charlotte Hornets) Men’s Coach Mike Dunlap, who now serves as an assistant coach for the Milwaukee Bucks.
I like the idea of forcing the defense to react with a higher sense of urgency when converting by having the offense shoot quicker.
However, you might not have a second team that can get a good shot in 7 seconds, so like all drills that you see, you will need to make some adjustments. You could give the defense a point each time they do not allow a game-like good shot in 7 seconds and require 4 points to complete the drill. You could play with 4 defenders to make it more competitive. You can adjust the 7 second time requirement to fit the skill level of your team.
