Emphasize edges. Edges include spacing, player and ball movement, and finishing.
Finishing off two feet helps mitigate contact, improve balance, and creates three-point plays. I didn't teach this enough.

- Require a finish off two feet.
- Start without defense, then add defense.
Another area to work is a "stampede catch" into a basket attack, combining both stampede action and two foot finishing.
