Message: [QUOTE="HuskylnSC, post: 3346179, member: 7953"] Bigs, specially post up bigs, are dependent players. They need guards with skill to get them the ball. If you Look at the men's 2014 final. Kentucky was supposed to win easily. But the two guards (twins named Harrison) both 6'6" could not get the offense going as Bass and Boat pressured them relentlessly. Kentucky's guards did not have sufficient skill to run their offense against pressure. I can still see the look of fear in one UK guard as he stood with his back to half court and boat crouched inches away. He didn't know what to do. I have always felt the best way to stop dominant bigs is 1) take away the entry pass and 2) power box out. We have guards that can play that kind of defense. [/QUOTE]
