when you hear best defense in Euro league zalgiris CIS demands your attention but what happened when they faced the defending Champions and one of the League’s best offenses a game where their defensive Master Class met none scoring prowess while Walker reminded everyone why he’s making waves in his Euroleague debut season let’s break down how these two teams matched up and what made this Clash so special let’s look at some telling numbers zalgiris came in as a story of extremes League’s best defense but second worst offense their three-point shooting was particularly concerning just 31.3% overall and 33.1% at home but against pananos they flipped the script finishing at 40.6% from Deep the first half was especially dramatic zalgiris hit 10 of 21 threes 47.6% putting up 52 points against the defending champs the tale of two halves tells an even more interesting story after that hot first half zalgiris cooled to just three of 11 27.3% from Deep after the break this highlights a recurring issue for pananos starting games too relaxed defensively then trying to mount comebacks it’s a dangerous pattern that doesn’t always end well especially on the road let’s break down how zalgiris managed this three-point explosion in the first half was it just Supernatural shooting or was there more to the story let’s analyze their looks and see what panthan ios’s defense gave them the numbers tell the story only two teams in Euroleague are worse than the greens at defending offscreen actions allowing 1.23 per possession but what zalgiris did was extraordinary scoring nearly 1.86 per possession in these situations dramatically better than panthan ios’s already poor defense against off-screen situations zalgiris runs a pitchback action leading into a flare screen for Brady manic nun crashes into wancho lur has to switch onto monik but despite getting the open look monik can’t convert here’s another offscreen action this time for citus coming off the screens he gets the space he needs as nun Trails behind and knocks down the open shot from the top of the key he’s shooting six of eight from this SP this season after timeout treneri draws up a play for cervus the Lithuanian shows the fake uses Dunston’s screen and knocks down the shot here’s a common action zalgiris runs initiating with a pick and roll then flowing into a flare or lock screen on the weak side for Lon Walker two different outcomes from the same setup first time Lort makes the rotation and Walker attacks the closeout next time through Walker’s left open and knocks down the three watch cius here comes off the screen and attacks lorts body perfectly by initiating the contact he leaves Lort no room to block the shot and finishes the play [Music] another weakness zalgiris exploited panan ios’s transition defense has been struggling this season ranking in the bottom quarter of Euro league zalgiris took advantage both in direct fast breaks and early offense situations catching the greens before they could set their defense let’s look at y s’s impact particularly that dominant second quarter where he scored 14 of panthan ios’s 24 points nearly 60% of their entire quarter output his efficiency was remarkable seven of eight from the field while grabbing half of all available offensive rebounds and being involved in 45% of team plays his complete statline in just 16 minutes tells the whole story 16 points scored five more cre created through assists with two assists against two turnovers on the glass he grabbed a quarter of all available rebounds though there was a clear split securing 50% of offensive rebounds but just 12% on the defensive end [Music] [Music] let’s shift our Focus to nun and Walker both with NBA pedigree with none already established as one of euroleague’s elite since last season while Walker’s making an instant impact in his debut year looking at their performances tonight Walker put up 24 points in 24 minutes on incredibly efficient shooting five of seven from two four of six from three posting an 81.3% true shooting percentage and 84.6% effective field goal percentage meanwhile none showed his all-around game creating 31 points 19 scored 12 assisted in 27 minutes with a 73.8% true shooting percentage his 35.7% assist percentage and 29 6% usage rate show how much of panthan ios’s offense ran through him let’s break down some plays to see how these two approach the game watch this opening possession zalgiris runs a pick and pop with Walker and monik The Greens defense looks confused Grant switches onto monik while wancho shows a hedge Walker immediately spots the Gap splits the defense and throws down a statement dunk oh splits the double te oh my goodness bloody Walker here’s Walker forced left but even that doesn’t work he still gets to the rim and [Music] scores throughout the game he showed his complete offensive Arsenal attacking close outs knocking down catch and shoot threes creating an isolation and turning defense into into offense and transition Walker basically put his entire skill set on display if you’ve probably noticed trink car’s tactical adjustment here using guard toog guard screens to force switches trying to get Grant off Walker and create more favorable matchups smart coaching move understanding they needed to get their hot hand away from panthan ios’s best perimeter Defender nun’s game started rough picking up three fouls in the first quarter and once again letting his frustration with the officials show drawing another technical this has become a pattern roughly his fifth straight game with a technical foul it’s an area where none needs to improve staying composed regardless of the calls and keeping his focus on the game rather than the [Music] officials with zalgiris taking away middle penetration nun had to adjust his game while he couldn’t find many driving Lanes he stayed effective from Beyond The Arc hitting five of 10 three-pointers and managed to create for others with five assists when the defense collapsed f [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] notice the detail in this hedge out coverage citus doesn’t immediately Chase his man after the ball screen alongside the big instead he stays a bit lower taking away the passing Lane to the roller once the big man starts his recovery citus returns to his man with high hands completing the defensive sequence here’s another example of hedge coverage but this this time it backfires Mitchell stays lower to cut off the passing Lane to the roller but in doing so leaves too much space for none to operate against a scorer like none that small Gap is all he needs to get his shot off [Music] watch this defensive possession unfold zirus shows hedge out with high hands forcing Brown to reset through nun as the clock winds down they switch with Walker closing out to stop nun’s Drive nun kicks it to wancho but the possession ends with brown forced into a tough Corner shot [Music] looking at these clips you can see what makes zal Gus’s hedge defense so effective they consistently cut off passing Lanes during the Hedge out making it difficult for offenses to find quick Solutions add their physical presence to the mix and you see why teams struggle to find immediate answers against this defensive scheme [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music]
