Questions & AnswersHi this is Sean Hobson. One thing you have to understand about the game of basketball is rebounding will get you extra shots underneath offensively. Also defensively, it will enable your team to go down offensively and score at the other end. So committing yourself to being a good rebounder is one way to keep you on the floor, coaches love good rebounders. It's kind of a lost art form, the box out. So we're going to take you through some steps on the box out and most importantly what to do after you box your man out. So first of all when the shot goes up, we're going to not look at the ball but we're going to find our man. Once we find our man we're going to get into him, we're going to make contact, we're going to stand him up and not allow him to go around us. The next thing is we're going to step through, we're going to get a good low center of gravity. Now we can root that guy back. Once we get that guy back away from the basket, that's when our eyes are going to pick up the goal and not until then. Once you get a box out then you're going to look up and find the basket. If the basketball is going off the left side, you're going to attack the left side. If the ball goes off the right ride, you're going to attack the right side. What you have to do is you have to go get the ball. You cannot box out and allow the ball to come to you. Once you get a box out, then you're going to go and you're going to explode up and you're going to find the ball and you're going to rip it off the back board. You've got to do the fundamentals first, then go and attack the basketball.
