If your going to drive on a big man and you are a fairly short person than I suggest you use this technique.

First of all you want to make sure you are dribbling at a fair pace to the basket and keeping your head up to see where the defender is. Once you reach the basket get a pump fake so that the defender jumps into the air. Give him a slight nudge so he can't block your shot and he gets called for the foul and you could possably get the points.

P.S. Never think that if the defender is taller then you that you are likely to dunk it over him or lay it in over him.

I'm a center for my basketball team and I know for a fact, Fouls are a part of a big man's points. When you get the ball DONT BE AFRAID TO PUT IT UP. Because even if you don't make it, you're likely to get a foul, trust me, I was a center, smaller than most centers in the league, but I definatly made the most points.

I play point guard so I dont score often. I penetrate inside and kick it to the man in the middle or the corner three.

A quick crossover dribble would help, and the change of pace could get your defender behind. If your a big guy, you back down and do post moves. Just be careful of being called for a charge, or turning the ball over.

Then there are the big men who don't jump for ball fakes and draw charges razz If you know what your doing, pump fake n try to get to the line, if not don't force it and get blocked, you can always pass it out as long as you aren't in midair. If you don't know the mid-air rule you should NEVER pass the ball in midair unless your passing from a high-low situation. It's easy to get it picked.
