About this listen

Welcome back to The Hours Podcast, presented by SAVI Basketball! Hosts Mark and Tyler are fresh off program clinics and dive straight into the trenches of coaching philosophy and defensive installation.

In this must-listen episode, they break down the common barriers coaches face when transitioning to a conceptual system like the Lock Left Defense (which they successfully installed in just 90 minutes!). They tackle the critical challenge of unlearning deeply ingrained defensive habits—from the archaic "choppy feet close-out" to the ineffective "hands up" mantra.

Discover the difference between playing man-to-man and executing a system, why your players must genuinely love your defense, and the true power of holding a seemingly small standard like "Knees and Noise." This episode is a masterclass in intentional coaching, offering practical ways to elevate your practice standards, teach with clarity (Show, Don't Tell), and empower your defense to force turnovers and bad shots by strategically "making the ball go."
