Admittedly, not a lot of teams at the D1 level. If you want you can scoff about this not being legitimate, I don't care, but I go to school at Wayne State College in Nebraska. Our women's head coach employs a 2-3 match-up zone 98% of the time and has already won a ring with it at the D3 level (his teams only lost like four games in his last five seasons), and he has the pieces in place to win another one at my school which is D2.


I don't say that as a claim to fame like "HEY MY COACH IS SO GUD AND HE RUNS ZONE ITS AWESOME!". While I might not be a guru in regards to basketball, I'm certainly no idiot, and his defenses, once the players learn it, are unbelievably stifling. I've never seen anything like it. The best part about it is that it's entirely flexible, and he can counter any kind of schemes that the opposing team goes to trying to take advantage of the zone. Like I said, you can discredit it because it's a small school, or it's women, or whatever I don't care, but I've been prodding his brain asking questions about it, and also playing against it in practice over the last two years and it's totally changed the way I look at how defense is played.

They're picking it apart just like I figured they would. Now go back to man so Kobe can get going. If not, keep hitting the high post and find the rover down low. Simple zone busters, guys. Let's go!

Can we not start with this. You make it seem like there's no question that they were threes and they're being called 2's to help the Suns. Come on now man.
