Mickey gets a lot of blocks, but he just swats away at balls/defenders as well. His stats show great amount of blocks. Does that mean he's a great defender? Everyone knows it takes more than blocks to make a good defender.


Exactly Brit. I keep seeing folks say our little guards are the problem on defense but if you really watch our defense that doesn't wash for me.

Our bigs are constantly poorly executing switches and rotations and don't even get me started on their on ball defense.

I see very little if any improvement defensively when the bigger lineups are in the game, zone or man.

Nor do I.

I get the most frustrated when Jordan, Jarrell and Tim move to cover a player and then for some inexplicable reason leave them again. JOB can be a guilty party on that to at times, but at least he does try to break up screens occasionally.

I've come to the conclusion that only defense I like LSU executing is the FC press. They should do it for short periods throughout a game IMO, even if we do have a short bench.
