Message: [QUOTE="Orangello, post: 2207231, member: 597"] The improvement in size at SSDM is really important. We are seeing more and more "loads" attacking the cage on offense like Rambo, Cloutier etc. The ability of the SSDM's to physically move their man outside on the alley dodge is critical. I thought OSU did a very good job of this yesterday. The biggest thing for me is for the unit not to play passively and have the guys who can extend out on the shooters. We seemed to give up a lot of outside shooting this year in favor of packing it in close. Teams with good outside shooters torched this defense (Towson, UNC, Duke). I thought it was interesting yesterday that OSU finally started having some success in the 4th when they let it rip from outside. It was too little to late but you have to take what the other guy gives you. [/QUOTE]
