This is absolutely correct. Percentages from 3 point land are way too low. I'm lucky to get 10%.

IN RL a C in a 2-3 zone still needs some OD. The Syracuse 2-3 zone that my team used this season has the center guarding most entries in to the high post.

Would the high post really be defined as "outside"?

I would define the high post as mid-range.

I would define it as Yannick Noah, certainly at least while he was at UF. ;)

From a basketball standpoint, you use the same defensive skills and techniques when the ball is in the high post as you would when the ball is on the perimeter.

Nothing you said has anything to do with different skills. On an entry pass to the high post, the center in the 2-3 zone needs to be able to closeout and guard the ball 1v1 just like a guard has to closeout and guard the ball 1v1. Its the same thing just in different situations.

See the fifth diagram. Show me any 2-3 zone where the center is guarding the high post like you say.

You attack me for my lack of basketball knowledge but you dont even use the term entry pass in the right context. I don't even think you know what the term high post refers to.

Even when playing M2M you definitely do not put your body between your man and the basket (which is called full fronting) or the high post just goes backdoor for an easy dunk. You play him on the side so you can deny the pass and still guard him 1v1 if he gets the ball.

Eat some crow.
