Finishing at the Rim

These are some great edits to show your youth players various finishing techniques at the rim.  The edits include two foot finishes (power lay-up, air'em, and donut all off the stride stop footwork) and one foot finishes (speed lay-up, inside hand finish, and reverse lay-up).

We tell our players to play off two feet in the paint when there is going to be contact and to go off one if there is daylight.  The vast majority of the time in the half court situation we are emphasizing playing off two feet as we believe it gives players a stronger base to absorb contact and it slows them down to make better decisions.

One way we teach to play off two feet is with the stride stop footwork. 

Have a great 4th of July week!
