    I would like to know how you guys/gals train your post players to slow down and wait for cutters to pass. I have an undersized, aggressive post who wants to attack immediately. She attacks in games and when I get her to slow down in practice she has a hard time reading and gets tied up. Away good ideas about how to train this action.

    I have my post player use the cutter as a fake so what i mean by that we train them to lean cutter side then do a move opposite the cutter. So we want them to use the cutter if they don’t pass it to them.

    I tell the post that if they can catch and shoot with no move, then please do.

    But if they catch in a position where they’ll have to make a move, they must wait on the Laker Cutter and make their move if the Laker Cutter is not open.

    If help defense collapses on the post, then pass the ball inside-out. You don’t have to wait on anybody if you’re getting double-teamed.

    If the post keeps making moves the moment she catches the ball, then don’t throw her the ball or don’t allow her to post up. She’ll get the message.
