Coaching points

• Dodge like you want to score: the hard dodge pulls two or three slides and a crash to one side. Then two quick passes put the ball on the side they came from.
• The man he dodges toward cuts through, the man behind him follows into his spot, and X stays home for the first pass.
• The weak-side dodger attacks a defense that has not had time to recover. If that dodge does not get a good shot, do it again.
