I looked for another thread in which this would fit but didn't find one - should someone else see an appropriate thread, I don't mind it moving.
I've watched all but one of the games this year, so I don't think it's been an isolated incident; I've noticed both Plumlees often appear to either be missing players on defensive switches, or playing some sort of middle-post zone while the rest of the team is playing man.
I wrestled, so my hoops knowledge really come from 25+ years of watching Duke - I could certainly be missing some tactic at play. I don't notice either of them getting yelled at or pulled for it, but it APPEARS as if they're frequently lost while on D. They both appear to be either trying to trap or play zone and don't switch over. They're both great athletes, so perhaps it's a freedom they're allowed that our other defenders aren't?
I haven't noticed others commenting on this, so I'm wondering if I'm imagining this, misunderstanding this, or if other's are seeing it as well?
:confused:
