  • The Back Doors are Killing Us

    The back doors are killing us. Just two many each game. By now we should of learned how to limited the number of them. I couldn't count the number of easy ones last night again. It's just digging us a hole that we should not be doing. JL made a statement about playing our D exspecting to give some of these back doors up but how many is some Why give up the easy ones

    Our bigs need to stay under the basket to limit them and we need much better help defense if we plan on going anywhere in St. Louis

      One thing I did notice yesterday the one thing DC does not do so well is react wll in coming over and helping out. It may be that he cannot move his frame quick enough. He does have a bit better footwork on offence lately but he needs to keep his feet moving a bit more on D. Once DC moves over though we need everyone to switch down on help because when he has done his job the weakside becomes completely open either for a pass or an easy rebound for an uncontested layup.

        Our coaching staff must be happy with giving these free-bees up for the sake of trying to trap outside with our post men. Makes no sense to me. If something doe's not change in this next week it, your right it will be a short trip in St. Louis.
        10 to 20 points on back doors a game, what kind of D is that

          I didn't see last night's game, but from what I have seen in the past few games, our bigs, either DC or SS, will overreact to a situation and even double team an opposing player in the paint! That leaves the back door wide open! I agree with STLBrave... Our bigs need to maintain their positioning near the basket.

            You hit it right again, Benni. This is what happens most of the time and sometimes I see them way out of the paint trying to help trap with one of our guards. I'm at why this continues. Give away points and thats just what all these back doors do, has and will cost us. We get to St. Louis there is NO room for give aways
