Message: [QUOTE="Funk Doc, post: 2357425, member: 5344"] I think you both are correct. The NBA does switch everything, and they do that because they have the athletes to do so. When Cuse is recruiting our "type" of guys, we are usually grabbing long athletes, who with some hustle, should be at the very least, adequate man defenders in the NBA. Other teams probably do, and should try and use it against us, but my hope is that these kids are smart enough to know that unless they are unhappy and won't enjoy playing zone, that it shouldn't really affect their draft stock. On a side note. Nova pretty much switches everything defensively, and they seem to do alright with it. So I guess it is possible in college. Gotta have the players willing to bust their butts on defense and on the glass! [/QUOTE]
