WBB: Game #11 vs Arkansas State

No it's not, it's either a man defense or a zone defense, a man defense can't be a zone defense or vice versa. The defense they tried a few times last night was a match-up-zone where the guards play a man and the forwards are in a zone. Hence when Yori said they tried to make the man look like a zone.

And that's my point she was tr to confuse asu into thinking it was a zone when it was actually a man so she didn't really change her defense. but as a friend of mine would say technically it is a zone but not really

Not to confuse....or argue for anything...but

....a defense CAN intentionally be mixed, zone and man...one that is pretty common...like what is normally called a box and one. The "one "  is a man on man to one particular player...( for example, chase the point guard all over the floor) but balance of the 4 defenders are set up usually 2 an 2  ZONE (two up front, and two beside the bottom of the key.)...there are lots of mixed zone/man defenses.

When you "switch" like we did last night....that is used both in zone (mostly), but obviously in man to man.  The obvious reason you switch is to not lose the player your defending.... as Connie said, not let the perimeter offense drive to the basket. (A St was suppose to have quick guards)

If you have ultra quick defenders and can play man extremely well....you don't usually need to "switch"

So the switching can serve to do several things. Simply as an instrument to improve the defense. Not only that, but it helps slower footed defenders, and the newbies learning curve too. ...and ultimately win games.  (we picked up the switching concept pretty quickly)

Want to win games....experiment with concepts....experiment with your personnel's capabilities....changing the offense or defense makes your team less predictable .......which is why we like Connie and staff.

ok so may be the dumb ass here.

Nobody's a dumb ass here....we're all just discussing our team. Watching, learning, analyzing the Husker team we happen to have fun following.

No one here knows everything there is to know about the sport...no one

Just my 2 cents

I guess we just see things differently. btw good post

 

 

Thank you Coach Yori when she said in her post conference “We’re trying to get our man defense to look and run like a zone defense to help get our players in a better defensive position to stop penetration into the lane!” This should help Rachel T with her gimpy ankle and Allie when she gets sucked out to the perimeter.

Kyndal Clark with a huge game last night and a dagger cold blooded 3 to seal the win! Jess Shepard just keeps getting better every game. And what can you say about Natalie!

Be nice to have everyone healthy going into Big Ten play. Looked as if Maddie is getting closer to returning also. Going to be really interesting to finally get to see Alicia Ostrander hopefully she can get into the Iowa game for at least a couple minutes!

Had a recruit here last night but no one knows who she was! Looked like a guard.

But it's still not a full blown zone. You won like it to be.

Is this directed at me? If so why?

 

my apologies row 6 should have kept my fingers still today.

Are we going to do the pick em again this year?

"I'm no doctor, but Maddie must of had something like a dislocated elbow...or something. If it were actually broken, wouldn't it have taken even longer to heal ?" redsteve

i've been wondering the same thing. from what i could tell by just short tv sideline images, it appeared she only had the arm in a sling? i really didn't notice a cast, or a bulky type of support. when i hear the word "broken", i see images of a cast. i was wondering if it could have possibly been just a small "fracture". anyway, it appears she is well on her way to recovery! good news. 

From where I sit which is behind the behind the team bench two rows up it,looked like a cast but I could be wrong as well.
