Message: [QUOTE="HoustonCuse, post: 1703927, member: 87"] We know we probably aren't stopping Sabonis with personnel. If we slow him down it will be by using system tools: 1. Deny him the entry pass 2. Try to get him in foul trouble with aggressive drives 3. Roberson rebounding from the weak side 4. Shoot the passing the lanes when he does get the ball and looks to kick out If we do those three things well, we will have a much better outcome. Realistically, he's going to get his double-double. But one guy is not going to be enough to beat us. Just need to contain him enough. Usually, it is a lesser player who steps up to beat us and they have a few guys who can do that. It will just be a matter of how well they execute and how we deal with them on the offensive end. Can we score on their defense? Hitting shots of course is our big key in every game, but they have been excellent defending the 3. [/QUOTE]
