Who said JB is stubborn and won't ever change things up?

Oh, right, that was me.
 
kstate frustrated on offense press cuts their time for possession down even more.

Reflexes got to rebound.
Keita just threw a ball away there after grabbing the rebound.

Thets Go CUSE!! SUball:E
 
It'll pay dividends. Their freshman point is their key and if we keep him rattled they can't beat us.
 
Kind of a bust
Who cares? You don't press only to create turnovers. You press for numerous reasons, primarily to rush the other team into taking frantic shots and speed up the tempo. This Kansas State team isn't particularly good, don't seem to shoot that well and have young ball handlers. You press to make them uncomfortable.

Then why not keep it on for more than 1 possession that led to. 4-1 break
 
We pressed a few times. We threw it on with a 17-11 lead, too. Mixing up defenses is smart coaching.

don't disagree. Would prefer a full court trap with keita/rak hanging back. This team is not good (kstate)
 
reflexes reflexes reflexes.
Jardine with a slower drive jump shot we don't need that we need speed.

Rak so much better back there for rebounding.

Agree, I've always thought a 2-2-1 trapping press is the best. That's the one we always ran in AAU. And also agree about KSU not being very good.
