Learning About Basketball for Dummies — Zone Ban Edition | MyGirlsFave 🏀

The NBA kept zone defense out for 54 years (1947–2001). They ran illegal-defense rules that forced mostly man-to-man and limited help. In 2001–02 the league legalized zones and added defensive 3 seconds—game changed.
• Why it was banned: showcase 1-on-1 stars and post play; keep the NBA different from college ball
• What changed in 2001: zones allowed, but bigs can’t camp—defensive 3s keep the lane open
• Ripple effects: more help-and-recover, corner 3s become premium, and PnR spacing takes over
• Today’s read: flash the nail/high post, hit short corner, and skip when the weak-side sinks

🔚 Takeaway: once zones were legal, the best offenses learned to own the middle and punish the corners.
