Seems to me that's how you'd defend that play. However, if you brought Criswell in, you'd create far more problems, because you can't leave him alone from 12-18.

AO dives to the hole, probably. Or AO sets a screen on Bowers' man, and Bowers dives to the hole. You could also have AO roll down and screen for the wing on that side, who is cutting to the rim.

As for options for Pressey there... he either:

1) Tries to split the double-team (and if he does, it's game over... Missouri is getting a layup or dunk at that point)
2) Swings it to the wing on that side, who then can either hit the rolling Oriakhi, take a shot (if his defender has sagged into the post to defend the rolling Oriakhi), or drive
3) Hits Oriakhi as he is cutting (if the passing lane is there)

They may win a few games and get better than an #8 or #9, but if they are #8 or #9 in the same region as Gonzaga, and win their first round game.

I would expect them to win beat Gonzaga.

Maybe Mizzou wins Saturday and earn a higher seed than #8 or #9.

As long as they don't have to play a team with a city or a map direction as part of their team name, they should be fine.

A rep-worthy response if there ever was.

He's talking about SEC tournament seeding genious.

They've run the same bs every time. Pressey dribbles out until there's under :10 before trying to get into anything, can't even get through screen at the top of the key as the d predictably steps out on it, we jack up a crap shot.

That is assuming the ball hasn't been fed ex'd to the third row by then.

I know it doesn't mean anything at all of what will happen when teams are picked but...

Heheh. That'd be crazy.

Trevo_410 · 03-08-2013, 10:27 PM

don't know which would be better...

norfolk knocking off ku and us getting revenge game from last year...

or us knocking #1 seed ku out of tourney... in KC.

warpaint* · 03-08-2013, 10:28 PM

Uh....the latter. Not even close.

Colorado St. as a SEVEN, over Mizzou?!

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. Larry Eustachy is, and will always be, a clown. CSU had one big win over a Washington team that has proven mediocre-at-best. What a weird seeding for them.

Pepe Silvia · 03-08-2013, 10:59 PM

Uhh beating the Gayhawks would be better, duh.
