Message: [QUOTE="arbitragegls, post: 139030, member: 302"] ...was at Heat game earlier in week and Atlanta took the half court game away from Miami by dropping back in zone from either man to man and or press...Heat has not been taking 3 point shots on a regular basis this year...LJ hasnt taken 10 3 pt shots in 5 games...Hawks took Heat out of game and won...I think that the zone is gaining popularity throughout the pros and also collegiate ranks...and JB is considered one of the fathers--founders--of this defense. if you watch Duke the last couple of years, they too are playing zone 30% or more per game...coach K has belief in it and in JB. Bottom line...all this zone stuff will help 'Cuse recruit very good players as they see pros and other colleges playing more zone. [/QUOTE]
