Coach Pecora takes a lot of the techniques that Louisville and Syracuse use to create a hybrid 2-3 Match-up Zone defensive system that is different than any other zone in basketball today. He uses a very simplistic approach to stopping and keeping pressure on the ball, moving on the pass, and closing out - all with a five-man rebounding mentality. Pecora presents the foundation of the defense, calls, progression drills, teaching tools and his philosophy for changing the formation his defense. Pecora shows how he disguises and transitions the 2-3 zone into a 1-3-1, 3-2 or man-to-man look. He also extends these defenses to half and 3/4 court. Extensive game footage shows his system in game situations to help you fully understand the benefits of running this defense. As a bonus, Pecora shows three zone offensive sets that he would run against this 2-3 Match-up zone, which will give you a unique perspective on how you could beat the 2-3 Match-up Zone. Pecora emphasizes a man-to-man defensive mindset for your team, which will keep your opponent off balance at all times.

Good dvd on how to run a match up zone. My program has incorporated Coach Pecora's concepts and have ran his match up zone with much success.

It,s better the most,not as good as others offered. He really spends too much time telling stories,rather then teaching the actually zone.Not sure I would buy this one again.
