Is it just me, or are teams utilizing zone much more in the past two seasons or so?
Agreed. I thinks it’s the “if nothing is working, let’s change it up and see what happens” defense.
It’s especially weird given the amount of emphasis on passing, spacing, and high quality shooting in the league these days.

Well, Brad, whatever you did at halftime - keep that up. You got the guys' heads back in the game and playing with energy.

Brad figured out how to cure the team's 3rd quarter woes. Just suck more in the second quarter.

Gotta love all the negative, over the top, hot takes(by all the usual folks) simply because the team played horrifically for 5 whole minutes in the 2nd quarter.

Oh! Look who came back.

Don't know if we can rely on this zone in 4th quarter.  Pop will figure out??

I'd like to see Brown and Tatum study the way Kemba creates angles to slip passes into Theis and R Williams on the interior.  I see them look that direction, so I know the idea is in their head, but they don't know how to make the connection - often they just turn it over when they try to force it. 

Kemba knows how to manipulate the defense to expose those angles, but the Jays don't have that guile quite yet.

Can you imagine if Kemba used a challenge?
