Ball handlers need to attack pressure defense


Every time they reach, create contact. Put the pressure on refs to have to make the foul calls. We're backing down from the physical play which allows them to pressure even more.

When they overplay passing lanes, back door. When they close out hard on 3's, pump and go by them.

Easier said than done, but if you don't make the defense pay for their aggressiveness, they increase it even more.

Every team has this in their offenses, VT just needs to emphasize it more for the next few games or it will be a long year of steady pressure defenses
