Message: [QUOTE="gsmooth, post: 5052723, member: 9355"] Picking up the defense full court was one adjustment as well as taking away the 3s but having the help defense better positioned if the South Sudan players drive to the basket, but without yielding completely open catch and shoot 3s in rythm. Their defensive rotations are much crisper and faster. Joel Embiid isn't a good defensive match up in this game which is why he is sitting. I won't pile on him or throw the baby out with the bath water-Joel can provide some useful minutes later on in this tournament. [/QUOTE]
