[QUOTE="IdahoIllini, post: 1433673, member: 746160"] We are always scrambling on defense because we switch way too much. Somebody else mentioned that we guard too far out leaving too much space. I noticed today that when NE wasn’t trying to get us lost in the switches, their other mode of attack was to take advantage of our defense being too spread out and getting one on one battles where they could get past us to the hoop. We aren’t athletic enough to play out so far, especially against teams with multiple ball handlers and guys that can get to the rack. We need to pack it in and force teams to take long jumpers instead of giving up clear paths to the basket. [/QUOTE]
