Super helpful information! Maybe a future article can break down some of the new offensive concepts in a similar manner? This is all very helpful to huge fans like me who never played the game at a high-coached level and would love to have a more in-depth understanding of what we are seeing each game on the court.
Maybe you could drop some knowledge on how they are using Carter as a facilitator or how they are generating easier baskets/shots with movement/cuts? It definitely feels from the preseason like they are getting many easier buckets in the half court offense than last year but it would be great to learn more about the offensive philosophy that creates them.
That was a really informative writeup Steven, not just on the Bulls but on drop coverage overall. As someone who isn't as much of a student of the game as I could or should be, I think I understand drop coverage a lot better now.
I know there were some lapses by Zach on the team defense reads, but would you say that so far he has shown improvement on that end of the ball this preseason?
Thanks! Zach has had some nice moments. Happened last preseason too but it didn't carry over into the regular season.
I don't think Zach is ever going to be an average help defender. He spaces out too much. He can improve in other stuff though, like effort. And his on-ball defense has been pretty good during this preseason.
