Message: [QUOTE="superjohn, post: 4458601, member: 1522"] I just don't really see how you exploit it. You try and full court trap us and it will be a dunk the other way. The whole team is above average at passing at their positions except for Sanogo and Jackson is a one man press break. We've seen teams overplay like crazy in the half court sending traps to get Newton in trouble on the sideline like in the Iowa State game, he coughed it up a bunch and we still buried them. I don't see how you can key on him any more than teams already have because of all our other players who will make you pay and because we'll have Jackson on the court alongside him. I also expect him to get much better at recognizing it. Last night he looked like he was getting into trouble because he was trying to spray the ball to shooters or looking to make the lob pass instead of taking shots in the lane and drives that were there for him. I guess he was exploited again last night because they took away the lob pass from him when he got in the lane and he had some turnovers but Clingan still had a lob party and we still buried them. Once Newton finds that scoring/passing balance we're going to be filthy. [/QUOTE]
