5 shooters and we want to talk zone

[20Plus]

Gillon/Battle/White/Lydon/Thompson

Try to out score opponents. Easier style to coach and for this group. Crazy to not adapt to this.

 

[Alsacs]

Playing this lineup with JB's zone would give up 100 PPG.
The defense is more important than the offense right now.
White/Lydon/Thompson score we just can't stop anybody.

Any change would be more awful in offense then improvement on D

So we know this team can't play man to man how?
I don't believe our m2m D is worse than our zone D.
Playing man to man D should have little effect on our offense. It would help us rebound and could get the transition game some help.

As Sigmund Bloom (a Cuse guy!) will say in his Football Guys' podcasts; It looks like we can't bank on the "assumption of rational coaching" these days.

Maybe Paul Westhead is available.

That lineup would be pretty awful at rebounding at both ends of the floor, too.

I don't know what we're talking about here

Players that are not it in this line of our Roberson I don't know if he's going to remember to get rebounds or not

And Coleman enough said

I think White is a good rebounder and I think Thompson is better rebounder than coleman

and I think Lydon is average or better and I like battle crashing the boards

 

[CousCuse]

Boeheim's first iteration of an offensive philosophy could be called the Louie and Bouie show, which was, rebound the ball and attack the offensive zone before the defense had time to set up, nonstop fast break. I'm sure a lot of fans now who are too young to have seen it can even believe it happened. Maybe JB's too old to remember that was what made him in the first place. He needs to bring back his youthful exuberance, come on coach, back to the future. A good first step for him would be to wear one of his back in the day plaid blazers, make it fun again Jim.

The lineup you've proposed is probably the worst rebounding combination possible from the current group of players available. On a per 40 minute basis, Coleman and Roberson are the best rebounders on this team, and are certainly the best on the offensive glass. White is only average considering his size and position, and is actually only slightly better than Howard to date. Howard is easily the best rebounder of the three guards. Battle and Gillon are barely a factor on the glass so far.

As Casey Stengel said, you could look it up.

When A walk on leads stat you use

You need to just give it up

 

[br801]

When I walk on leads us stat you need to just give it up

Couldn't filter the walk-ons out of that page. I figured you'd be smart enough to realize that stats for guys who have played less 10 minutes in garbage time are essentially meaningless.
