BADGE ANALYSIS

  • Activate this badge by speed boosting from the perimeter
  • Best for Playmaker and Iso builds
  • Increase Speed With Ball attribute
  • To break down your defender:
    •  Study how the defense is playing and observe their tendencies (both individually and as a team), then use the most effective move for the right situation. Timing your moves at the right time, relative to how the defense is playing you, is important. Here are some examples:
      • If a defender is crowding you, create space with the triple-threat step-over and jab-step.
      • If a defender is slow, sprint around or past him
      • Anticipate what the defense will do, e.g. if a defender is going for the steal in the open court, counter with a behind the back move or crossover.
      • Keep the defense off-balance by mixing up dribble moves, change of directions, speed, and passing the ball.
