Message: [QUOTE="DoctorBombay, post: 1884311, member: 626"] All this back and forth about defense reminds me of the new similarities in our MFB and MBB programs. When the 2-3 zone isn't working early in a given season, you'll have many people, myself included, clamoring to scrap it or "switch it up" every once in a while. Of course, since JB is committed to & has faith in his system, 9x outta 10 by season's end, it gels into the devastating D that we all know and love. HCDB has his system. It's worked everywhere he's been and once the pieces are in place, not unlike the "big, long athletes" that work best in JBs zone, this D will work as well. And yes, before anyone points out that we have 30+ bball games versus 11 in ftball, that's precisely why it'll take a couple of years to fall into place. Patience, as I always remind my daughter, is a virtue...and in our case, a necessity. [/QUOTE]
