Message: [QUOTE="nelsonmuntz, post: 3807945, member: 833"] Generally, the team that wins the net possession battle (net turnovers + net rebounds) will win the game, but if the net possessions are close, then the team that wins the net turnovers has the advantage. A steal is worth more than a defensive rebound, because it is easier to switch from defense to offense from a steal, which leads to easier transition offense. I believe the man to man has improved dramatically in the last year. I think our guards are still not great defensively, but the the team has finally figured out Hurley's help defense and it is pretty effective. I do think Depaul was a decent defensively, so I wouldn't see they don't come close to us. They did keep switching with Moore, which lead to some mismatches for us but we didn't take advantage of them like we should have. We should have posted up whoever Moore was covering every time they switched him off Cole. [/QUOTE]
