Frankly, I can see no benefit from teaching that position, and without seeing it, I have a difficult time seeing it as being a natural stance.
To squat and lean back, most likely requires a base wider than shoulder width, which can get you called for an illegal screen if the defender gets caught up on the extended leg when going around. The extended arms means first contact is with the arms of the screener, which can also get you called. Seems to me to be a very bad technique even if it is perfectly done. Remember screens are supposed to be a passive act, every thing about that stance is aggressive. Last edited by blindzebra; Tue Jan 23, 2007 at 03:07pm. |

I agree that it is probably illegal by the strict interpretation of the rule. But the next time it gets called on us will be the first time, so we'll stick with it.

At the back of the NFHS rulebook, there's a page called "COACHES CODE OF ETHICS" supposedly put out by the NFHS Coaches Association. There's a statement in there that reads "The coach shall master the contest rules and shall teach them to his or her team members. The coach shall not seek an advantage by circumvention of the spirit or letter of the rules.". Well, ain't that a hoot? It's right up there with "The coach shall respect and support contest officials." |

haha when I played basketball, I was taught to screen with my hands covering my cajones... because #1 i was a tall kid, and #2, i have seen too many players take cheap shots at screeners, and also accidental and not been called for it. My coach said "get a wide base, and cover your nuts"
