Weird coming from a guy whose son is "definitely transferring".

Defense is far more important from the 5 than offense.

Yeah right, tell that to the NBA's all time leading scorer, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, or Wilt Chamberlain who scored 102 points in one game, or Kevin Garnett, or Tim Duncan, or Shaq, or Ewing, or Moses Malone, or Bill Walton. Defense is of course important, but offense and the ability to score is what wins championships, be it basketball, Football, or baseball. Get a clue.

No, he's right. You listing guys like Garnett, Ewing, and Duncan kind of proves his point. Some of those guys played before the three point line, by the way.

You just named great defensive players who were also great offensive players. Defense wins championships and pitching wins world series.

That's a good point, everyone remembers that famous phrase "Offense wins championships"

There is no one set way to win a title. Trent Dilfer won a Super Bowl as a starting QB. The Rams both won and lost a Super Bowl as offensive juggernauts.

Lol yeah let's compare a 19 year old kid to hall of famers. Okwandu, nolan, and olander were our bigs and we won't two championships, why? Because our defense was great and we had great guard play. You need competent big men. Having studs would be great obviously but if you can get a center who can get 8-8 that's good enough if you surround him with talent. Great guard play wins championships.

Sure you have to be good on both ends of the floor, but offense trumps defense every time. The most points wins the game, not the most rebounds, or the most shot blocks, and in a close game what matters more down the stretch, rebounds and blocks or free throws?

Dude, this isn't the NBA. Nothing like it actually. Defense and guard play dominate the college game. See 2014. And 2011. And many other non uconn examples..

That's the formula. Especially in this day and age with watered down play. Notice all those guys you posted are generations past? Gimme the two best guards in the tournament, a great defense, and I'm winning the NC more often than not.

Oh, and most of those guys were great defensive players as well.

If offense is the key, why does the number one offense so rarely win it all (in most sports)? Hi Atlanta. Hi golden state. Hi Boston red Sox. . And that was just last year!

Strike outs don't count in the run column, only crossing home plate does. GET A CLUE!!!

the other team cant win if they cant score... also look at kansas this year lucas is averaging 8 and 8... guard play

 

[Mano]

You know when your defense is getting sliced up and torn to tatters, you need something to bind it and put it back together. Get a glue! Guy, get a glue guy to hold an offense in check, duh, get a clue!

lol you troll very well bc strikeouts do count in the run column bc the strikeouts means the other team isnt scoring so it does shou up in the run column

 

[lavuuk153]

Remember when UConn got run out of the gym because they only scored 53 points in a championship game? If only their offense was better...

Yeah right, was Bob Diaco canned because his defense sucked or because his offense and play calling didn't score a touchdown in like 12 quarters? Good defense helps, good pitching helps, but if you can't score you're going no where.

Defense is literally the act of preventing points. You're talking yourself into a circle.

Both ends of the court are very important, let's just leave it at that.

Remember when the UCONN women only scored 60 points or less in a game, and won by 30? I can't. 110 wins and counting.

Oh I see, you're a women's fan. Aaahhh it all makes sense now. You're right, I don't know why the men don't just try winning by 40-60 pts every night.

You're the one arguing in circles, you just refuse to admit that to win you must devise an offense that can beat the defense. But ok let's leave it at that.

You do realize they are 7th in scoring defense right?

I literally just pointed out UConn won a title easily while only scoring 53 points because they just dominated on defense. Just stop digging a bigger hole.

Special teams is most important, IMO.

It's funny because this is almost never true. Heck, in baseball, it seems 99/100 it's pitching and defense that wins it normally. The number 1 offense doesn't usually win it.

NFL
2000 - Greatest Show On Turf goes down to the pats D
2001 - Ravens D drags Dilfer to title
2002 - Sapp, Lynch, Brooks, Rice and Tampa Bay D take down offensive minded oakland
2003/2004 - balanced pats, but the D was better.
2005 - balanced pitt
2006 - finally offense wins one! Manning.
2007 - best offense I've ever seen mauled by Giants D
2008 - balanced steelers
2009 - offense wins again! (nb: 2 offense-based teams) NO
2010 - balanced Packers vs balanced steelers
2011 - balanced Ravens riding defensive resurgence
2012 - there's that giants D again
2013 - nasty Seahawks D kills offensive juggernaut broncos
2014 - Balance vs balance
2015 - dominant Broncos D carries the day.
2016 - historical Atlanta O goes down

Notice a trend?

But if you want to keep it strictly NBA, Bill Russell's for easy more championships than all those guys.

And what was his calling card?
