Don’t miss part one of this series (offense) on Colombia’s Revolution.

Probably more than their unique offensive style, Revolution is known for stifling, unpredictable, and super athletic defense. Unlike many teams that may use multiple zone or bracket looks to surprise offenses, Revolution uses team chemistry, intelligence, and a switch-heavy person defensive scheme to keep offenses second guessing about who is open. And with fluid lines and many of their star players playing both ways, they are always a threat to score after the turn.
