That’s easier said than done. Battle has problems too, not because he’s doing something wrong, just because it’s the nature of the defense. People used to get mad at Triche, then Cooney for the same stuff. Even though JB changes it up some, usually the weak side guard drops to the foul line. If the other team is doing a good job of rotating the ball and/or using skip passes it’s not easy going from the foul line and getting into a shooters face. It’s almost always we just fly at the shooter. It’s why we push up the forward often to get to the wing shooter, which leaves that corner open. But then we have the center go out to the corner shooter which isn’t easy either, although Dolezaj is pretty good at it. Then the weak side forward drops to the middle when the center flies to the corner. It’s 5 guys moving together, but you have to credit the other team if they attach it well. The ball will move faster than any player. But we do a good job typically and why the zone has been so successful.
