Practice trapping the pick and roll.
As the ball handler dribbles off the pick the big hedges and forces the ball handler into a negative (moving away from the basket). The defensive guard runs and traps the ball handler (defenders use the heel to heel method). The trap can be maintained or the big can drop off looking to defend the roll. The baseline help defender, who rotated into help position, calls the coverage – “I got yours” or “Take yours” etc.
