Man to man vs zone

[GophersOnTheRise]

When we began playing zone the team began playing very well and we have gotten crucial wins to keep the season alive. I know we've played a little bit of zone this game, but can anyone give me a good reason why we are even playing man at all this game? We should be playing zone the whole game. What is the reasoning? Do we want the same result as the last time we played Michigan? Did Tubby forget that Nolen isn't out there? This is very frustrating.

Remember when they played zone? And they went 7/13 from 3 point land.

Whatever defense you play, you need to play with pressure and intensity. Slow. slow, slow footed defense.

Unfortunately I got home a little late and turned the game on with around 10 minutes left. I was wondering if it was something like that.

tubby has been mixing up the defenses, nothing is working due to a lack of effort.

This is not what I was hoping to see when I turned on the TV....

My guess is the worst 3 pt shooting team in the league would've cooled off. Their is no reason to switch over to man-man when it hasnt been successful since we lost Nolen. Would you rather them be jackin up 3 pt shots or getting easy layups? i think ill make 'em earn it from the perimeter
