Message: [QUOTE="OrangeFoo, post: 2968903, member: 210"] I agree the offense is more of an issue than the defense. But our defense is also hurting the offense because we are recruiting players based on fit for the zone. My main point is that the zone used to be a weapon that it alone made us elite. But now enough teams know how to get good shots against it that the zone no longer makes us elite. We need to either change the zone or focus on fixing the offense so we can outscore teams who have solved the zone or are going Steph Curry on us. Saying they made more shots than us is no longer an answer because the shots are wide open and, again thanks to Steph, teams have more people who are more likely to make those open shots which will make the zone less and less ineffective. So on one side we have a defensive system which is degrading and is impacting our offense and then we have an offense which is stagnant and doesn’t create good looks. Something has to give. [/QUOTE]
