The Gonzaga v USC scrimmage is worth watching

Coach Few's comments afterward [different video] are about what is expected after watching the game:

1. Not a good rebounding effort
2. Poor perimeter D against ISO
3. Not enough whistles [USC was fouling constantly]
4. Good tape from which to learn
5. Did some good things



Personal observations:

Zags are slightly less talented at shooting/shot making than normal
That item leads to slightly worse half court spacing than normal [still better than most teams]
Which leads to more difficulty in their flow offense [still better than most teams]
But they are very skilled and move the ball well.

The post D is not as bad as the perimeter D but isn't great.
The transition D was suspect but not in an amount abnormal for a scrimmage.

They still will be less athletic than most top tier opponents. But they are likely to be more skilled.

One video [obviously limited sample size]……Zags are currently more of a Top 15 team than a Top 8 team.
They need to improve at rebounding and perimeter D. Sound familiar?

Musselman's comments were also predictable. Want to make the game choppy.



Worth noting……one official collapsed during game so it appears that the game continued with only two and no fouling out….which somewhat explains Few's view on physicality/lack of foul calls.
