[QUOTE="MtnWasp, post: 924119, member: 4110"] Smith had established a plane parallel to the ball handler and he never broke that plane. The UGA guard tried to round the corner but Smith never let him. The ballhandler broke Smith's plane. If the ball handler managed to get a shoulder past Smith when he tried to turn the corner, then it would have been blocking on Smith. But Smith beat the UGA player to the spot. It was a good call, but I agree that it was not a common call. Phenomenal defensive play. Still trying to figure the team out. Sometimes they can shoot and play offense, sometimes they can't. Sometimes they can defend, sometimes they can't. They have a lot of holes. Some guys that we have counted on to produce and are getting minutes, are not producing. Howard facilitates on the offensive end, but can't defend the rim. A new hole showed up against UGA: our difficulties with the zone defense. Franklin was lost. I thought Moore could be a guy in the middle but he kept tryign to dribble down into the double team. I'm thinking to try Smith down there. he can shoot from 8 feet. Or how about Kelly in the middle of the zone. He is 6'6" and our most creative player on offense. Even Deebo there. I guess you stash Franklin (or Howard) on the baseline. The biggest mystery so far this year is Howard. Not only did he get off to a rough start he wasn't even playing! I wonder what Howard at the 5 and Franklin at the 4 on the floor together would look like. We're a weird team right now. Things are still not settled, but we have a core of talented players: Smith, Kelly and Moore, on which to build. We are currently ranked 193 in offensive efficiency (average) and 113th in defensive efficiency (32nd percentile which is good not great). Fun game. [/QUOTE]
