Message: [QUOTE="BobbyJ, post: 3928742, member: 4250"] I agree that the shot fake or up fake is a completely neglected weapon in girls HS and WCBB both before the drive or at the finish. I would estimate that at least 80% or more defenders will lunge or leave their feet on the fake and you’re either by them or have them hung in the air drawing a foul. And the UConn defenders all do it as much as anyone. You’re right, the fake itself and the discipline to avoid falling for it just aren’t being coached much anymore. Our HS defense was one of the most disciplined around. Every time one of us left our feet for a fake, Coach yelled One! A manager kept track of each kid's total. 22 laps around the floor was just about a mile and we had to run our totals after practice. We learned really fast. [/QUOTE]
