Teams that play good defense typically have players in good positions to rebounds. The ones that often hurt them are the long rebounds, but those come typically on long, lower percentage shots. Personally, I’ll give up that rebound.

It’s the one 3 feet from the basket, and that one likely comes because we don’t have bodies in the right position. The rebounding is the symptom, not the cause.

The original post is spot on. I’m looking forward to the other videos. The issues are with system and approach. They can’t be blamed on the players because they are there year in and year out.

Yeah, I know, the coaches tell the players and they don’t do it. If they don’t do as told, yank them out.

I was really hoping that the hiring of Schroyer would fix this. So far that’s not been the case. Here’s to hoping we rapidly improve on defense as the year progresses. If not, we’ll underachieve yet again.
