    The primary reason why there was no dribbling around in the first half was that they attacked the matchup in the paint. They were able to find the gaps via the pass. Dribbling against a zone is a waste of time. After halftime, the Buffs' man-to-man defended hard inside, challenging everything. They wound up fouling (a lot), but otherwise the Cats' offense stagnated, leaving Jizzle with his favorite shot - 18' jumper. He finished 1-for-9, with 7 FGA inside the arc, but not close to the basket.
    I agree. But it's not like they aren't guilty of dribbling against the zone in the past. My question is what has occured to where they don't fall into that habit like they did before

      Perhaps John Lucas and his staff taught bb 101 to Jizzle when he was in rehab.

        I thought Abaev looked a lot better, especially on defense. Early in the season he was lost, but last night I thought he was much better anticipating moves by the guy he was guarding. The shot still isn’t there, but he’s progressing. He does have a knack for drawing three shot fouls.
