how do I get the ball in the post?

HIP-AND-ROLL

When being fronted by a defender use the “HIP-AND-ROLL”. Before the entry pass maintain contact with the fronting defender with your hip. See the ball. Put BOTH hands in the air as a target. Then, let the pass be thrown. Wait until the passed ball is DIRECTLY above the defender's head, then give the defender a slight nudge with your hip as you jump to meet the ball. Now, posterize somebody.
