TWO ON ONE FASTBREAK

Passing back and forth is the best way to score on the two-on-one break because it never allows the defender to act.  The defender is forced to REact to each pass.

If you are defending the two-on-one, you want to stay away from the ball, preventing a pass, and force the ball to be dribbled into the basket while you fake and try to get the dribbler to pick up her dribble or make a pass that you are prepared to intercept.

At the last second, you can try to distract the shot or get into the dribbler's way to disrupt her rhythm.  The important thing is to stay near one player and keep the ball in the other player's hands, preferrably on the left side (weak side).  With the ball on the left side, you fake and threaten at the last second.
