We all know that the biggest problems X had last year were defense when we needed it most and, most importantly, rebounds.
We know Richard likes man-to-man with some sort of zone when nothing was working, so let's take a look at various defensive sets and who might be in the lineup for those sets.
We know the lead guy, Tru Washington, but who do you pair with him, and where does he play in zone? 2-3, 1-2-2, or 1-3-1, or maybe Buzz, Amoeba, or swarm. Maybe Presses, traps, and a special new defense with all the depth X has so we run them in like a hockey line change
Give me your thoughts on your favorite defense. If enough people contribute, then I will give you my take. and have a discussion

DEFENSE
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

Re: DEFENSE
I don’t care what defense or defenses he plays as long as it works.

Re: DEFENSE
If Dominquez, Milicevic and Westry start it's hard to believe we will be any good on defense no matter what we play. looks like we will try to out score people again. Washington is a good defender and hopefully Nwoko is too. Hopefully House, Aligbe and Chitkoudis get some time to show what they can do
