Game 24, at Washington (2017-2018)

[zonagrad]

Why would you front Noah Dickerson with a 7'1" beast like Ayton? All you do is put yourself out of defensive position for rebounding. And then you'd be bitching because we'd be giving up second chance points. Credit Dickerson for making some really tough shots. He also got bailed out 3 or 4 times by the Pac 12's finest.

I'm more upset that Ayton shot a grand total of 3 FTs the entire game. He gets hacked more than any player in the conference.

Oh, I don't know, maybe because he KILLED us all night while we played behind him???

And fronting him solves that? And then UW swings the ball from the wing to the high post and suddenly Ayton gets sealed on Dickerson's hip and is out of position for an easy entry pass and definitely out of rebounding position. Keep it up coach.

Uh, NO. In that case Ayton just rolls toward the post and stays in front of Dickerson..............try again, harder next time.

Thank you. And Dickerson just lets him roll toward the post because Dickerson has established inside position and is anxious to give up inside position to a seven footer. Try not to analyze the game so much. You know so little about it.

Well, its obvious you should be coaching.........playing behind Dickerson tonight was so incredibly successful

Bearing down on doing the same thing over and over again (and failing) is insanity.

So we front him and if he gets the ball there is nobody between him and the rim. Solid tactic. If someone else shoots and misses, then he has an easy rebound. Sounds great!
