Message: [QUOTE="MartyMcFly, post: 1002924, member: 4536"] Exactly! I honestly can't remember the last time this year where we swarmed on D, fought for 50/50 balls, and generally just out-hustled our opponent. shooting definitely was a major reason we lost yesterday, no doubt, but take Arizona tonight... they got 15-20 points directly off of Gonzaga turnovers. They were everywhere on D and played with a sense of urgency that used to be a hallmark with SU. Sure we hold teams to low point totals, but we were so stagnant in our end of season swoon, no energy that an active zone creates. We seemed to be more often than not a reactive zone that an active anticipatory one that creates lots of turnovers, which lead to transition buckets and energy... this was a big factor in our losses and is silly to be overlooked.
