Our man defense is soft, allowing uncontested drives to the hoop, with no help rotations. We were not athletic enough to defend them man and it showed. However, what stunned and disappointed me was watching Devin back away from yet another drive late in the game rather than go up and attempt to make him earn it from the line.
He tried zone for one possession and Clemson annihilated it.
On this particular play the announcers said that Devin 'showed great respect' for the Clemson guy by backing off and letting him dunk. I laughed when I heard it.
