Communicate! Talk! Speak to the ball! Go to a gym, especially at the higher levels of the game, and you will hear coaches imploring their team to talk on defense. The old axiom is that a loud gym is a winning gym - in both practices and games. Teams, especially on defense, need to TALK:
T - Tell your team what you are doing, what you see, how you are helping.
A - Accept your responsibility in team defense - your player, the ball, your help, be unselfish.
L - Listen to your coach, and for how your teammates are helping you.
K - Keep talking - the moment you stop, others think they can do the same.
