[QUOTE="UofIChE06, post: 1449187, member: 9264"] I actually don't think they are that great at stopping the drive. Part of that is by design because they play pressure defense. Being that close to the ball makes it very difficult to stay in front of someone. They have drastically improved even since earlier this year at helping on the drive. They are almost baiting drivers into a bad spot where help is waiting. In addition they are anticipating where the ball is going to go when that driver runs into the help and rotating much better than before. [/QUOTE]
