Message: [QUOTE="Senore2006, post: 190621, member: 1953"] Both teams beat zones the same way. You try and penetrate and - when you do - things tend to work well. The better the zone, the better the players understand footwork and fronting the body, the less success teams have at penetrating. Our plan last night, for example, was to have Gorgui take the foul line jumper. He missed that twice and then froze - and infuriated Pitino - and me. Hell, UL has always been taught to "take the shot" - otherwise you get jerked. For you guys, you tried Triche penetrating and that was solid. Fast passing, reversing the ball, good spacing - all those things are how you beat a zone. Unfortunately we both play the best zones in the business. [/QUOTE]
