The premise behind this defense is that by having four players within the pack line, it discourages the opposition from penetrating and getting inside the paint and forces them to beat you with well executed offense and great outside shooting.
The only exception is if the offensive player picks up the dribble and it becomes a ‘dead ball’, then all players can go out and deny looking for the steal. In traditional man-to-man defense the players are denying the pass one pass away.Īt all times there must be one defender pressuring the player with the basketball, and four defenders in gap/help positions. When in Pack Line defense all players are inside the shaded yellow area protecting against penetration.
