Message: [QUOTE="007, post: 3648072, member: 393"] Excellent post and insights. Very impressed with your analysis of the NE game plan relative to how and when they provide help and what they were forcing SU to do (settle for). I suspect you have a coaching background [USER=837]billsin01[/USER] I like the move to the modified man press (at least in the front) against this team. At least the trap rotations looked better and the transition back to the 2-3 was reasonable as was the transition defense during the conversion back. I think this has been an emphasis in practice. Given the game plan from NE, I was hoping to see more of an emphasis on attacking the rim off the dribble, even as a concept. We were way too passive. Kadary, by far, is the best at this - wish JB would turn him loose more in those situations. At the end of the day, NE lost this game because of the TOs. Good thing we had a great night at the foul line. [/QUOTE]
