The sample was composed of 10 games of the Spanish men's 2005\u20132006 regular basketball season ( N = 1,785 ball possessions). The analyzed variables were the number of types of defenses used, points per possession, foul percentage, and turnover percentage according to the type of defensive strategy and game location. The game location main effect was significant in points per possession, with home teams having lower values than away teams. The defensive strategy main effect was significant in number of types of defenses used, with man-to-man as the most frequently utilized defense, and foul percentages with higher values in zone defenses. There was a statistically significant interaction in turnover percentages, with significantly lower values for man-to-man defense and home games. Overall, it is suggested that team performance for the studied variables changed according to the factors and, thus, it may be beneficial to change defensive (and offensive) strategies according to game location.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2466\/pms.110.1.159-166","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,5,28]],"date-time":"2010-05-28T18:49:16Z","timestamp":1275072556000},"page":"159-166","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":44,"title":["An Analysis of Defensive Strategies Used by Home and Away Basketball Teams"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"110","author":[{"given":"Miguel A.","family":"G\u00f3mez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Alberto","family":"Lorenzo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Sergio J.","family":"Ib\u00e1\u00f1ez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Sport Sciences, University of Extremadura"}]},{"given":"Enrique","family":"Ortega","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health, Physical Activity, and Sport Sciences, Catholic University St. Anthony of Murcia"}]},{"given":"Nuno","family":"Leite","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Jaime","family":"Sampaio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,2,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-pms.110.1.159-166","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1469-0292(00)00005-4"},{"key":"bibr2-pms.110.1.159-166","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1123\/jsep.14.1.13"},{"key":"bibr3-pms.110.1.159-166","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/026404199365984"},{"key":"bibr4-pms.110.1.159-166","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2466\/pms.2001.92.3.933"},{"key":"bibr5-pms.110.1.159-166","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2466\/pms.106.1.43-50"},{"key":"bibr6-pms.110.1.159-166","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/24748668.2006.11868358"},{"key":"bibr7-pms.110.1.159-166","first-page":"181","volume":"18","author":"Marcelino R.","year":"2009","journal-title":"Revista de Psicolog\u00eda del Deporte"},{"key":"bibr8-pms.110.1.159-166","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/24748668.2005.11868317"},{"key":"bibr9-pms.110.1.159-166","first-page":"52","volume":"57","author":"Mikes J.","year":"1987","journal-title":"Scholastic Coach"},{"key":"bibr10-pms.110.1.159-166","first-page":"279","volume":"17","author":"Ortega E.","year":"2008","journal-title":"Revista de Psicolog\u00eda del Deporte"},{"key":"bibr11-pms.110.1.159-166","first-page":"22","volume":"70","author":"Osborne D.","year":"2001","journal-title":"Coach & Athletic Director"},{"key":"bibr12-pms.110.1.159-166","first-page":"24","volume":"67","author":"Otto K.","year":"1998","journal-title":"Coach & Athletic Director"},{"key":"bibr13-pms.110.1.159-166","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/02640410701275219"},{"key":"bibr14-pms.110.1.159-166","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/02640410500141836"},{"key":"bibr15-pms.110.1.159-166","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2174\/1875399X00801010012"},{"key":"bibr16-pms.110.1.159-166","first-page":"61","volume":"4","author":"Pollard R.","year":"2007","journal-title":"Iberian Congress on Basketball Research"},{"key":"bibr17-pms.110.1.159-166","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/02640410400021559"},{"key":"bibr18-pms.110.1.159-166","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2466\/pms.99.3f.1231-1238"},{"key":"bibr19-pms.110.1.159-166","first-page":"188","volume":"18","author":"Silva J.
