Why do so many defenses force you to the sideline/baseline? Ever notice that whenever you have the ball on the wing, good teams force you baseline?
Smart players know that the middle of the floor causes chaos for all defenses. By driving baseline, you make it easy for the defense to rotate normally on helpside.
Your ability to drive the ball to the middle will bring many easy scoring opportunities to your team. The defensive players will have no clue what their helpside assignments are which will lead to easy baskets and lots of free throws.
Next time the ball is reversed to you on the wing, be aggressive and think middle. Good defenses will try and take this away from you, good offensive players will recognize when an opportunity exists.
