Must stay between between the person your gaurding and the basket at all times, look at the eyes of your opponent, cause they can jerk and jive. never let them take the base line unless if there is a defender down there, they will shoot 100% of the time. About keeping your knees bent, keep on the balls of your feet, always be ready to follow the opponent, and don’t play too close, cause they could juke and jive, then they’d be gone, ask an upper class for more help on defense, not the top scorer, but the person who has the most take aways, hope this helped.

one hand up to block a shot, and one hand down to steal a bounce pass so if you opponent was running on your right, your left hand would be up, and your right hand would be down.
and your coach is right.

well i play basketball too. When i play defense i look at their belly button because they cant fake you out. Their eyes and other parts of their body can move the way that they are not going to go. If you just practice you can get better. Your coach is right about the other things, though.
