[quote="EliteBaller K" post=408120][quote="Delaware" post=408098]I really think we'd be better served playing straight up defense instead of this pressure. Use the pressure to surprise. Teams are figuring us out.[/quote]
Why exactly are we playing pressure defense? I could see if teams were held in the 20s or even low 30s but shu got 78 and so far g-town has 42, it seems useless.[/quote]
Because we have to. If we played straight up man, our guards get blown by, and our bigs offer no rim protection. If we played zone, on rotations, our guards lack of height is exposed leading to easy jump shots.
