What achievements for the Half-court basketball trap?

I was recently looking at some old games on ESPN Classics and I came across a team playing a trap at half-court. It had me thinking why this defence seemed disappear over the years.

The half-court were put in place to create sales and get the ball away in the middle of the Court. By pushing the ball in some corners or stain defence could trap and opened to force a bad password.Several teams would use 1-3-1 half-court trap to force traps on the coins.Il has been very effective that I grew up, but since then it has become less effective.

My theory of why the trap of the half-court went later has everything to do with the 3 points.lorsque line 3-point line was created teams began to abandon open jumpers in the corners before players can get there and cause a trap. Rather than create turnover figures trapped created possibilities of fire that teams could not give more.

When Loyola Marymount in their large run to the end of the 1980s that I remember that one of team who tried to slow down using a zone eux.Dans area, they would try to trap shooters, but it completely backfired. Once a passage was blow would either go up or the ball would be transmitted quickly defence was unable to retrieve and a player had open shot, a 3-point shooting open. He has completely changed the way the game was played.

Just look and you'll see my point. Possible infringement used about get the nearest blow in the basket by the player. This is where Wilt Chamberlain.It was very effective as it could so easily mark.The guy was enormous, and he was right by panier.À turn, defences wanted then teams take shots more far away from the basket because it was more difficult to make the shot.When 3 pointer it just changed because it left the defences and forced child away from the hoop.That is when the half-court trap or the press comes from mourir.Il left too many open shots.

If you are a youth coach and want to run a trap area and then to teach children the basic 1-3-1 zone and just extend the half - court b.c zone' is a concept much for children to learn team defense of especially when players is enough to blow the zone.Un good example of a team that is always running is Northwestern.
