Knicks · Thaddeus Young on Knicks switching-Answerman style (page 1)

Thanks To TeamBall
"we knew that if we set a back screen on Evan Turner's man, they were just gonna switch everything..." - Thaddeus Young

Now are these players this stupid or does this 1st ballot hall of fame coach have them all screwed up?

Pretty sure we'll figure it out in another 50 or 60 games.

Embarrassing

The open 3 by Young at the end was a disgrace. Why are they looking to switch all the time? That was barely even a screen.

Look Chandler called Woodson out and he isn't a spring chicken in the NBA. He played on a championship team with Carisle who is an excellent coach who knows a lot about defense. You have to play straight up man as much as possible. There are times to switch but those should be rare.

Unbelievable. Thank God it wasn't free battery night.

Right after that, Wally said that Young didn't just think that answer up on the spot and that it was right out of the scouting report (as if that was a surprise to anyone)

Unbelievable.

Wow oh wow

I was going to mak a poll but then realize how this idea is but out of these coaches which one do you think took it upon themselves to teach their players to switch on every back door play.

A. Mike Woodson
B. Darrel Walker
C. LaSalle Thompson
D. The White Guy
