watched 2 games. bottomline they are a defensive focused team that will score in fast break, but loves half court ball.

no shooters besides 1...pop issacs a frosh guard

somebody in the hoya program said they are "grown ass men". that's correct. hahaha

vs creighton

offense

d5 out to downhill handoff
...stay attached

ran pop issacs frosh guard on a three point replacement.

not a great perimeter shooting team, but they share the ball. Trying to get downhill.
....pack in, but get back out. keep ball out paint.

pick and rolle, but it's mostly to the rim
...zone these guys regularly

...sometimes lazy with the passes and catches. jump them!


defense

man to man
...move ball
denial full court action to man. maybe trap on 1st pass or on sideline/corners


personnel

pop isaacs is the only real 3 ball thread
#12 is a shot blocker, mad athletic
...pick and roll him and slip it.
#12 will face up and drive
...make him shoot away from rim
bigs battle
....shoot must be physical across the board

vs Louisville

offense

5 out continuity-esque to get paint/cup touches. hornes, handoffs all going downhill
...zone them. or sag man
...press them to slow periodcially. give different defensive looks

pushes for offense
...bad shots turn into their good shots.
...get back
...show on their high pick and roll. make the dribbler shoot

defense

hard man
hi hi pick and roll, #12 shows hard then recovers
traps corners
...slips them
keeps you on one side of the floor (downing)
...skip it, but be careful as they will play passing lanes.
...on downing, get around top angle and attack. hi hi pick and roll

personnel


12 batcho is a developing force. He will switch/peg on pick and roll
five new freshman, only 1 returning starer
their coach said their defense is ahead of last year's. Offense is behind
obanur strong mid low poster.
