has anyone else noticed that Eddie ONLY plays 1 on 1 defense?

he ONLY guards his man and pays attention to nothing else going on the floor...its a bit wild

I wonder if thats what the coaches want him to do...or if he just plays that way and refuses to change?

JB would never have allowed his defensive playing style in a million years...and for good reason

i just watched the Stanford highlights and there were multiple uncontested Stanford layups (just like every game) where eddie literally moved away from the basket as a stanford player dribbles straight to the hoop and scored uncontested

its good he guards his man prtty well...but the center cannot be playing no team defense

team defense from the center is vital for any good defense

i think it would actually make a big difference for the teams defense if eddie would try to get in the way and at least stay near the rim etc

if the coaches want him  playing like he does...they are insane
