I used to do that, (suffocating the O) But now in my school im a respected D they are scared i can take the ball off any body especially on fast break steals. From a pro D - i believe if u know where their goin then look at their move for e.g. when on mano-a-mano ur always square with them and try to attack slap the ball as soon as they do a particular dribble, if they are a show off usually they would do between the legs dribble to the other hand and back wait for the ball to touch the other hand and swipe away. e.g.

When and How to attack the ball

1.Cross from right to left under legs - U SWIPE THE LEFT HAND and VICE-VERSA !!!
2.Attack from the back so they dont notice - If the O is getting double teamed then try to go behind them for they can only go backwards and get them un expectedly.
3. If they give u a chance get it for example if he does behind the back dribble in front of ur face get it for he cant see u and will just show off
