Jank mentioned in his presser that in our case we'll play some zone to keep our guys from fouling. We are lucky to have depth at the 1-2-3 but really can't afford our bigs to get into foul trouble. So Full court will probably not happen unless it's near the end of the game.
While this does move away from LB's (awesome) "airport" quote, it makes a lot of sense. And given our length we should be fairly adept at closing off passing lanes. The question becomes can we close down a good three point shooting team. That's surely not a new question, is it?
We are long at the 1, 2, and 3 but not at the 4 and 5, not like we were last year. It will be good to see how our bigs do against Stanford's bigs.
Ben's kinda long, no? And Semi is athletic as hell. Markus and Jordan may not be long but they are concrete walls. It will be interesting to see how the arm bar rule affects Jordan and especially Markus.
