Message: [QUOTE="007, post: 3219468, member: 393"] Yeah, I hear you. I have read and heard his reasoning many times. To my knowledge, he has never used a 2-2-1 3/4 press, apart from very early in the season last year (not sure many remember or picked up on this). I can tell you from experience there is not a lot more "energy" required in running the 2-2-1 back to the 2-3 as compared to what is required running JB's extended 2-3, which is very demanding on the wings. It's also interesting that when he does press, the 1-2-1-1 full court press is THE most physical demanding press. In any case, I suspect the real reason is that JB does not like to press (who can argue with his results?) and rarely believes that his team is good at it. [/QUOTE]
