Excellent adjustment by JB. He wasn't happy to have to go to it but excellent adjustment.

Tee you are going to have to post them pics tonight my computer crashed right before I turned cooney into a hawaii witch doctor but he sure played like one in the second half :P
 
3-2 zone imo. He put the third guy in front so our guards didn't have to move left and right as much and we stopped their dribble drive for like 5 straight minutes went on a huge run, and cut down the biggest strength of their offense the dribble drive.
 
Didn't notice a 3-2. Has JB ever done that? The great thing about the zone- when it's good (and it's not that good this year) is how high the forwards can come out-- I think was what was happening.

This year when that happens (and when it doesn't) the inside of the zone is getting torched. Hope the zone we hope to see will emerge.
 
well the wings neglected their baseline duties the whole first half...
 
Another great adjustment was to put Fair on the right side of the attacking offense and move Grant to the left.
Since the majority of players are right handed the majority of passes are on that side of the court as opposed to the left side where Grant just stands there with his hands down. Hasn't learned to bounce on his feet with his hands off his hips.

Yeah but the wings stayed up like in a 3-2. Not a exact 3-2 maybe more of a
2-1-2 With one of the forwards staying up instead of being up for 2 seconds. They couldn't use good perimeter passing to open up a drive and Ennis and Cooney finally were able to contain the drive some without being caught out of position for a 1-3 seconds.

I thought this thread was in jest to a post I made a few weeks back about the guy who said we went 3-2 zone against Cornell, and that's the reason we won. :crazy:
