I think 2-3 zone worked fine for Venomous Scorpions.

i agree with that..
it wouldn't have worked if the Chinese team had scored with 100% accuracy and VS had fouled 90 times..

In my mind this picture:

"Sarcasm?"





:D

Seeing that QRs outside shooting percentage was pretty bad I think playing 2-3 was a logical decision and look at the stats VS had 24 more possesions of ball when QR if his two players weren't physical (Saint and Chinese center) he probably would have won.

Congratulations to the 2-3, it won the final ¡¡¡
















































But for the opponent team xDDDD.

So you commented on B3 final but why didn't you comment on recent magical Czech Republic win against mighty Spain with 2-3 zone :)

NT Czech Republic players not = VS players... Versatility + Haná, but good game and brave gamble... 2-3 caused many faults of VS...

I just toss the facts, you lot work out why.

For the season QR has shot 53.1% in regular season, in a BBBest final where you expect the best defense he actually improved that. (53.8%). Also QR averages 25.5 assists in regular season, against a BBB finalist defese he was able to rack 27 of them.

QR is shooting 18.7 FT a game, against the zone he shot 33 FT.

VS was able to get 33% of all the rebounds in QR's basket.

QR made 116.1 points per 100 posesions (93 possesions)
VS made 110.1 points per 100 posesions (107 possesions)

This BBB, M. Raud averages 14.3 shots and Q. Khoury averages 13.7. Against a 2-3 zone they shot 14FG each.
This BBB, M. Raud averages 19.8 points per game and Q. Khoury averages 19.2 ppg. Against a 2-3 zone they made 22 points each.
This BBB, M. Raud averages a 59.3 Field goal percentage, and Q. Khoury 61.2%. Against a 2-3 zone they shot 57% and 64% respectively.

PS: i just missed a cheap bid

I have some other data here. The fouling distribution. There wasn't any last-minute automatic fouling (unless Haiguang's last foul), so the results are pretty accurate. I'm not surprised by the results, by the way for some people I think it could be interesting.
[notice: when you read in action it means that it's not a shooting foul... so sometimes we don't know who has been fouled]

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Take a look at shooting foul instead:
[PG] Saint made 2 out of 3 fouls (66%) on big men (PF+C), on a defence switch
[SG] Medrano made 2 out of 2 fouls (100%) on big men (PF+PF), on a defence switch
[SF] Kienbink made 0 out of 1 fouls (0%) on big men, he switched on Leevike (SG) for a foul, I think it's acceptable
[PF] Marinc made 0 out of 1 fouls (0%) on little men, so he didn't foul on switches (if he usually switches)
[C] Haiguang made 2 out of 4 fouls (50%) on little men (SG+SF), on a defence switch

6 out of 11 shooting fouls (7 if we consider Kienbink switching on a SG) are made because of bad switches, and 4 of them have been made by little men.

Congratulations to 羌哥 :)

the game was one of the most beautiful game that i see in BB :) a close game :)

did you enjoy of this match ? :D

Great end to the tournament... brave move with the 2-3.... was this your way of helping all 50,000 remaining users get the message across to the BB's??

So... do I still have a chance of being the first 'Asian' team to win the tournament twice?!...... maybe next season I'll get a nicer group stage draw and see if I can hang about for a bit longer......

Would be nice to have another $10mil in the bank though :(

SALARY CAP!!!!

Look forward to seeing your next moves....
