Key Techniques for Post Entry Passing (A1/High Level):

Ball Position: Initiate passes with the ball behind the hip to reduce defender reaction time and increase passing force.

Targeting: Aim for the post player’s hands at or below the free-throw line, as passing too high allows defenders to intercept.

Passing Technique: Use sharp, crisp passes, including bounce passes with top spin.

Setting Up the Pass: Utilize jab steps, dribble threats, and eye fakes to move defenders before throwing the pass.

Angle Creation: Improve passing angles by moving the ball around the perimeter or using shallow cuts to shift the defense. 

Key Drills and Training:
1-on-1 Post Feed Drills: Players practice passing high-post player who then executes moves like drop steps, jump hooks, or up-and-fakes.

3-Point Threat: Outside players must be able to shoot, forcing the defense to respect them and creating easier entry opportunities. 

Common Mistakes to Avoid:
Passing from too far out-of-position.
Telegraphing the pass with eyes.
Waiting too long to make the pass, allowing the defense to recover.
