watched some YouTube videos of Pitino’s Louisville teams on this rainy day:
- Their guards fought like hell thru screens and rarely switched because of it
- His big men were usually quick, athletic and active. Lots of blocked shots on dribble drives, good help defense. It’s really a compliment to Sorianos work in the off-season, becoming a big man that Pitino trusts on defense
- intense full court ball pressure, very similar to what we see so far
- up tempo offense, lots of quick shots, constant motion
- elite guard play on both ends. Penetration was key to everything. Beat your man and good things happen
Looking at the team this year, you’ll see similarities with the way Luis, Taylor, Jenkins play. I think Wilcher, Glover and Brady also fit
So far Dingle seems a bit slow for Pitino
