It is what the pros are not supposed to play, but always do. It is the defensive set where a defender plays a zone, not a man. As the offensive player moves into the zone the defender is assigned to, the defender moves to guard the offensive player until that player moves into another zone, where he is picked up by the defensive player guarding that zone.

Zone defense is a type of defense used in sports which is the alternative to man-to-man defense; instead of each player guarding a corresponding player on the other team, each defensive player is given an area, or a "zone", to cover.
A zone defense can be used in virtually all sports where a defending team is present.

Zone defense -- the players have an area of the floor that is theirs to defend; as opposed to playing man-to-man defense.

each each now and then coaches placed a small participant for the defence under the basket a million 3 {a million} small so if that purely placed a huge guy under and submit him if no longer attempt to get the ball to a edge say left then proceed it so it is going low they'll attempt to double group him then on the susceptible edge placed 2 gamers a million on actual 2nd under there'll be purely a million dude for canopy so right here you bypass basic basket
