Why does Tennessee use a zone vs 99% 3 point shooting team? I don't get it.

Martin is not a good coach. Only thing I can think of is he's just trying to slow the game down.. and sucking at it.

not a smart coaching move. michigan shreds zone. it's their thing. remember how they shreded Cuse's zone last year?

damn, can beilein coach for us? that dude is an offensive genius.

Beilein is awesome if 3's are falling and very meh if the 3's aren't.
 
Tennessee can't guard Michigan no matter what type of defense they play. Playing two big slow-footed guys against this type of offense is death.

Iowa State really starting to miss Niang now.

that's true, but this michigan team has too many shooters. it's hard for them to be cold all together. and since they don't have trey, they really do rely on shooting ability. they are a typical elite 8 team who can't win it all because of their deficiency in size and pg play. but if they do get to final four then it means our boy stauskas is playing like the mvp

they really do look slow and lethargic. they look confused on D. i thought D was their thing. only saw 2 vols game all season and i thought they played solid D.

Beilein is a very good coach. The shots usually fall when your team takes good shots.

I was expecting that Michigan's void of an inside presence would hurt them against the athletic Tennessee guys. Then they play zone to allow them the only thing Michigan is good at. Letting them shoot Star Trek 3 point percentage in the first half...
I think I'm losing money in this game unless their coach tells them to play real defense...

I'm also impressed by UConn. Winning money on this prediction! Some lucky shots but I like their rim protector and their veteran guards are money
 
Michigan is just really hard to guard. They play like Iowa State and are now the best type of that team left now that Niang is injured.

Good post. Agree.
 
PKM said:
I hear ya and not disagreeing.. but the coaching circles consider him to fold when the shots don't fall... he's all in on the 3.

He's all in on good shots. When the shots don't fall they usually aren't good ones and it means they are being defended well by a superior team. Can't win them all.
