theyve really picked up their defense since early season. kind of jelling. makes sense with like 4 holdovers, 4 transfers, 4 rookies
also vs providence their offense was really good...less threes (particularly by lewis) and more inside out focus.
anyway, here is what i've seen thru a number of games
sieu
offense
double stagger for GW transfer #22
pushes hard off misses
...get back!
defense
man that can look like a zone shell. sags
....put in ball screen action and distort it. also look for skips
...susceptible to quick transition
1-2-1-1 after field goals and ftree throws. speeds teams up
...don't miss and remain calm!
personnel
long and athletic roster
illinois
offense
offense was sputtering. relying too much on Morsell
defense
man to man. sometimes sags and traps
...suceptible to wide pick and pop sets?
will double drives around paint
hard show on top ball screens. will flat hedge too
personnel
kuerth had 5 blocks, causing mad havoc. not a shooter
...pump fake him. get into his body
right now offense is too much morsell, who can shoot better but is a downhill cat and defender. tough player. leader
22 is offensively gutsy
