I think zone defense proponents are more hated than Cardinals fans on this board. So it's a crew I hate to be throwing my lot in with, I really do. But we did look better playing zone. And the more we play it, the better it will look by comparison. It does everything we need it to do. It protects our bigs from foul trouble, it keeps the bigs defending in the post and the guards on the perimeter, and it neutralizes our weakness in pick and roll defense.
Next year is gonna be a great year for M2M because we'll have lots of versatile bigs on the floor and a very tall shooting guard, and hopefully a couple true rim protectors, so there's still a backup plan when we break down on a pick and roll. But this year's roster is tailor-made for zone.
