Ya think replacing [Phinisee, Stewart and Durr] with [Reneau and Hood-Schifino] might help jes' a lil bit?  :)

Yeah but I think JG's and Bates' emergence is going to be the key, and I think both will produce at a significantly higher level offensively

13 players.

  • One of them is 6'3" (Xavier).
  • Everyone else is between 6'5" and 6'9"

Yes Hoosier fans, we can switch on screens defensively.

 

The NBA Finals participants this year, Boston and Golden State, were first and second in defense, respectively. By now most know that the Kerr-era Warriors’ secret sauce on defense is switching 1 to 4 most of the time, and 1 to 5 when they play a bit small with Draymond at the 5.

Boston does much the same; the defensive player of the year, Marcus Smart, is basically who you’d create-a-player as your PG if you wanted someone who could mark Steph Curry and ALSO bump KD or Giannis off a spot.

Not a perfect analogy but IU has some similar pieces to each team, grading on a college hoops curve.

And defensively. Honestly, both those guys have barely scratched the surface of what they could become. Here’s hoping they get there.
