Re: GDT: SDSU vs IUPUI- Conference Opener

We kept dribbling into a trap. That was the problem. Breaking a good press involves good ball movement and less dribbling. Took us awhile to adjust.

Dee Dee Bellamy was also an extremely good on ball defender.

Late in the game Gabby went to the baseline corner at least once to take Bellamy out of the action when the ball came upcourt. The results were not always better and the ballhandler looked the same as Gabby. It may be that the women off the ball were not getting to the spot. Irregardless, they did not break the press effectively as they stopped the dribble and seemed to wait for the trap.

And it wouldn't hurt to have someone come back and set a pick for the guard bringing the ball up to drive past.

Good point.

It definately helped playing athletic teams in the OOC portion of our schedule.We were more prepared to deal with IUPUI athleticism.
