Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 4472775, member: 12088"] The main thing about fouls on defense I remember from my playing days — long ago but not forgotten — is that they often result from not moving my feet quickly enough. If you’re late getting into position, you end up fouling, or you make it easier for the player you’re guarding to get a foul on you. This is why tired players foul more. This has also been our problem of late. A short rotation isn’t such a problem if the team is in tournament shape. But we don’t appear to be in that sort of shape yet. Flopping can exaggerate this simple equation about fouling, as can poor officiating. But the primary solution is to address the problem at its root — get healthy, get back to the conditioning that allows us to outrun everyone we play. [/QUOTE]
