TheWatShot Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Every time I think we've seen Tom Crean's biggest indictment yet, something else exceeds it. Alford Bailey, BGleas and Napleshoosier 3 Quote
LIHoosier Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 What's scarier is that was the highest pts/poss IU has allowed in the Crean era. That includes the Pritchard/Tijan/intramural MVP teams. Alford Bailey 1 Quote
rebelhoosier848891 Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 So far--we have been making every decent team's offense look great when we play them. I hope the team is working on nothing but defense at this point. Alford Bailey 1 Quote
JSHoosier Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 Crean made a comment about us not being good enough on ball. He does realize there is more to team defense than on ball defense and that we're awful in all aspects, right? Dalton26 1 Quote
Old Friend Posted December 5, 2015 Author Posted December 5, 2015 Crean made a comment about us not being good enough on ball. He does realize there is more to team defense than on ball defense and that we're awful in all aspects, right? Our help defense is absolutely an abomination. And it has been all season. This team is truly bad defensively. That's hard to accomplish when you're as athletic as we are and have the players we do. BGleas and at33iu 2 Quote
BGleas Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 And it's the most basic defensive concepts you learn at an early age that they are completely awful at. Our help defense is absolutely an abomination. And it has been all season. This team is truly bad defensively. That's hard to accomplish when you're as athletic as we are and have the players we do.

BlueDevil Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 Here's a long explanation about the defense from Crean.http://imgur.com/J6o7Cvd Quote
JSHoosier Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 Here's a long explanation about the defense from Crean.http://imgur.com/J6o7Cvd He should've watched the game. Duke wasn't getting free throws because we were giving them 3s and layups instead. Quote
Alford Bailey Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 He should've watched the game. Duke wasn't getting free throws because we were giving them 3s and layups instead. Not sure any of our guys were close enough to foul them. Quote
MartintheMopMan Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 Here's a long explanation about the defense from Crean.http://imgur.com/J6o7Cvd ... That about sums up the issues with the team doesn't it? BlueDevil, Class of '66 Old Fart and southsidehoosier 3 Quote
eljefe6 Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 The thing that irritates me about the, "It's Dec 2nd, we haven't worked on that very much yet" is he has plenty of returning players that should already understand these things. Also, I have personally seen 6 or 8 teams so far this season that are already playing really good D. How is that possible so early in the season? smh Quote
Tim Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 Here's a long explanation about the defense from Crean.http://imgur.com/J6o7Cvd He's intent on going down with the ship, isn't he? Quote
