Individual defensive development

Player development is crucial for a team's success, especially on the defensive end of the game. Everyone knows offense sells tickets but defense wins championships. However, teams don't become defensive powerhouses overnight. It takes years of practice of repetition.  

In many sports offense is deemed to be the most important facet of the game because the objective is to score more points than your opponent. However, if you're able to stop your opposite team from scoring.. You don't have to score nearly as much to win the game. Great defense minimizes your opponent's possession time and shooting percentage per possession, resulting in fewer points and the inability to create momentum. 

As a basketball player, you need quickness, footwork, and a deep understanding of the fundamentals to play good defense. In basketball, a good defense requires you to attack the basket while limiting the opponent's scoring opportunities.

It's crucial to play great defense to get more offense. Tough defense increases defensive rebounding. If your players are constantly getting beat off the dribble and are out of position defensively, they can't box-out effectively.
