Message: [QUOTE="Chief00, post: 5236876, member: 11108"] Johnson is a great kid who plays hard but sometimes we can confuse playing aggressive with playing effective. Despite a similar number of minutes (695 vs 660), Reed had 160 defensive rebounds this season compared to 73 for Johnson. So Reed had 120% more defensive rebounds, despite you seeing Johnson’s “rebounding intensity” and understanding of “defensive rotations”. At the end of defensive plays, Reed was in much better rebounding position and there were missed shots by our opponents to rebound rather than made shots by them. While Johnson overplaying a 6-2 guard 30 feet from the basket may demonstrate intensity - what were the results? They both had 23 steals this season. Reed had 5 more blocks this season and both had too many fouls (Reed 96/ Johnson 100). While doing the Briefs this season in key games we went on runs with Reed on the floor and gave up points with Johnson playing. [/QUOTE]
