When we saw them before the game we decided to go zone since they had two guys over 6’6”, their shortest guy was 5’11”, and we only have one person even near 6’. Our zone moved well, they moved the ball better, and even with hands in their faces they sank their first 7 three-pointers. We switched to man and they started missing their lay-ups, which allowed us to crawl back into the game. Unfortunately, at halftime they decided to abandon lay-ups unless they were on fast breaks and started hitting 3s from NBA range and farther out. It took us a while to adjust to playing defense so far from the hoop and once we did we left the people underneath exposed to easy post-up exploitation. It was a no-win situation. Still, my team’s getting better… but I’m getting sick of losing. If anyone reading this is in DC, is over 6’1, and has basketball experience, please write a comment back so I can draft you to my team.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12772652595102064083noreply@blogger.com
