To beat a defender, lull them to sleep. You don’t do that by playing at one speed all the time. Instead, slow down and use a skip dribble. Be Deceptive. Make them think you’re doing one thing, then BOOM, attack.
Do something different.
Watch Tyler teach the skip dribble, see Kemba Walker do it, then go out and practice changing pace so you beat more defenders and create advantages for you and your teammates.
Pro Tips:
Change speeds often to fool defenders.
The skip dribble is an effective way to do that.
