Screens
Screens
Off the ball are being defended much better and it seems the back cuts are really being taken out completely from the offense by opponents.
The same set is run by UM and if guys are supposed to be reading on cuts maybe they're doing a poor job. I think more screen slipping would be a good counter

But your comment is slightly ridiculous. McGary has only taken 3 shots, including a bad jumper. Definitely not 5 or 6 missed bunnies. Come on now.

Stauskas needs to be more aware when we're facing a zone. GRIII made a great flash to the free throw line and Stauskas missed him. That's the key place to attack that zone.
As much as people get on GRIII, Stauskas has been equally slumping.

Something's changed here in the last few weeks. We'll obviously come back to win this game but something is different lately with these guys. No idea what it is, but we've just looked like we're not trying very hard over the last 4-5 games.

this team is not getting out on the break like earlier in season. When teams keep them in half court the team stands around and watches as burke tries to create.

Offense is really, really, really struggling. I think people have kind of figured out Michigan's transition game but they also realize that Michigan's offense is limited if there is a good defense.
This may be an upset if Coach B. doesn't find a solution quickly.
February 17th, 2013 at 1:42 PM |
Agreed.
Agreed.
Seems as if teams have figured out the formula to slow the tempo down on Michigan and limit the transition offense. Teams being on fire against us has more to do with our defense vs. them just being on, imo.

Perhaps the fadeaway shot from the left side of the basket isn't the best choice, as both McGary and Hardaway have now airballed...
