I'm speaking of using Wilson, Temple, Dou and Tirus Smith in the open court to create turnovers with their athleticism. They are undersized already but if we can create some turnovers or just create delays in getting the ball down to the post they could be effective.

We've tried the half court trap this year against Youngstown State. We do not have the guys to be doing that very often.

You seem to forget all the other layups they got but ok.

[cajuns80]

We are shooting the 3 ball good now but we are fouling and giving them 2 free throws every single possession now.

PJ Hardy is on fire right now.

I do not agree. We have a smaller team that can play with some length on the backside. Wilson proved he can excel in this defense and you don't not do it because they didn't execute it perfectly in the second game of the season.

So, we already don't close out well and give up open 3's but lets play zone and really let em get going. Great idea. We also only play 7 guys. We don't have the depth to be trapping.

CAN WE GET A STOP

[RaginDave]

Not good news, looks like Tirus Smith could be hurt.

Sure makes you appreciate a Bryce Washington on the offensive boards. PJ with two missed layups.
Go to believe Bryce would have been around the hoop for some put backs.
