It’s the same concept as the inside shade, but reversed, and without pressure from the sideline. Here, the inside is wide open: you have to take it straight on instead of overthinking it.
Key points
- Attack one to two yards past his outside leverage before coming back inside.
- The inside is open. It’s not a feint: go full speed.
- Continue directly along the route; the release does not end after the third step.
- In a group, with a ball: your partner throws to you as you come out of the break. Same movement, plus the catch.
Common mistakes
- Piling up fakes when the side is already open.
- Coming inside too early and letting him close it with a single step.
