Gonzalez calls this a containment press which with a shot clock is probably the best use for it. At the HS level, I took the principles and slides he shows and put a little more aggressive tone with my front three players.
It helped us come from 19 down in the second half to win a game by 5 and go 3-0 in OT games because we were able to wear down more talented teams. The press does work very well with length up front and speed in the back, we only had a little of both and it still was a weapon.
