[QUOTE="goillini30, post: 1430448, member: 590758"] I wasn't able to see yesterday's game, and I couldn't bring myself to watch it on DVR when I got home, but I've been thinking about the same thing. I think it's partly because of our "on the line, up the line" off ball positioning, which can lead to longer distances to cover to get to the rim, and then when the kickout occurs it's a long way for the next help defender to get to the 3 point line. Also, the fact that teams are now just spreading us out with 5-out looks and then driving, we don't usually have anyone near the rim to give easy help. Just my thoughts so far... [/QUOTE]
