Message: [QUOTE="Brooky03, post: 1303041"] Every guard in our zone has made mistakes like that. Triche was strong but he was not the most fleet of foot guard we've had. His lateral quickness was lacking at times which allowed opposing guards to penetrate. The difference is what happened to those penetrating guards back when Triche played vs. what happens now. When Triche played, we had forwards who knew how to cut off the passing lanes quickly and we had an off guard who could apply some pressure. Now, at all times, we have at least one forward who's slow to recognize and rotate, a Center who's castrated by foul trouble worries, and off guards in la la land. I'd love to watch highlight reels of guards being able to get by Triche (which he would allow in certain cases) only to have MCW rip 'em. Cooney's a conerback playing without a safety over the top.
