If you had told me that we would get a grand total of two points from Evans and Cumberland, and that our two bigs would have eight turnovers between them, I would’ve guessed we’d lost by double figures

watch how other teams destroy that zone with basically clones of cumberland and evans that can catch it there and then make a good decision on whether to shoot, pass, or other. |

kwash and clark don't provide ball handling or passing ability when they catch there. they combined for 8 turnovers. |

i mean you can pinch down or in and leave a 39.6%, 45.3%, 41.9%, 36.2% or 32.7% 3 point shooter wide open. but with those 5 out there, it should be very difficult for the defense. they should have to choose to give something up, can't guard it all. when we pass it to clark or wash there, it doesn't result in a good pass from there. its either a TO or a tough shot. |

The other thing that gives me pause is most teams don't play a straight zone anymore. It's more of a match up zone. With a bunch of switching and rotations. I really don't think teams are going to let Evans and Cumberland catch the ball at the foul line uncontested. Last edited by WAITE HOYT 2; 03-09-2018 at 05:44 PM. |

In my opinion, the most important attribute for a high post player against a zone is quick decision making. Clark and Scott tend to be very methodical, which negates a lot of the advantage gained by getting the ball in the middle. To me that's more of an issue than the fact that they don't shoot the midrange jumper. Evans is deliberate too. Cane and Jarron are both quick and decisive. We have even seen Nsoseme make some good quick passes in that spot. I would like to at least see what happens with Cane or Jarron in that spot, but it's clearly not a part of any Cronin offense.
