[QUOTE="IllinoisssssssVarsity, post: 2032753, member: 747262"] That shot is one of many within a range of pivots and counters that keeps the defender off balance. He usually has his feet under him and is on balance when he goes to it. There’s an efficiency there. I’d like to know our season’s PPP on Domask bootyball possessions. Agree with your earlier point on us sucking on defense collectively and therefore not getting recognition individually. As others have said, Coleman is playing out of position defensively. It’s a personal defensive efficiency sacrifice to help us stay within underwood’s overall philosophy of contested 2s from seemingly any distance. BU has referenced post ups as one of the least efficient means of offense in the NBA, and he clearly feels comfortable giving up post looks (and wide open mid range pull-ups vs drop coverage) to try to limit 3 point attempts. I’m interested in how many non B10 teams can punish us in the post when we hit the tournament. The flip side is, I think big12/sec athletes can guard us a little better. Sorry that turned into a whole thing lol [/QUOTE]
