3 RULES FOR GOOD TRANSITION DEFENSE

1.  A fast break usually starts with a defensive rebound... jam the rebounder and prevent that easy outlet pass to start the break.

2.  The FIRST THREE STEPS are the most important in transition defense. Those first three steps should be an all-out sprint to get back on defense. You must beat the ball and your man to prevent an easy score.

3.  Just as important as sprinting; is communicating in transition. Use your voice to point out the obvious. Just because you see the ball going toward the open lane doesn't mean your teammates do. Call it out and be specific.
