  3. “The Spartans didn’t double-team Sullinger, the Buckeyes’ 6-9, 265-pound post man, in their 58-48 victory. That is because, as an ESPN feature asserted, 55 percent of Sullinger’s passes out of double teams become baskets. The Spartans weren’t going to give the Buckeyes’ outside shooters the luxury of time and space. Instead, the Spartans used rangy 6-10, 240-pound Adreian Payne, Sullinger’s former AAU teammate from Dayton, and burly 6-9, 270-pound Derrick Nix to tag-team him in the paint. They tried to put a fresher man on him again and again.” (via Dig this: Michigan State’s determination on defense unravels Jared Sullinger and the Buckeyes: Bill Livingston | cleveland.com)

  10. Why Ohio State is struggling with entering the ball to Jared Sullinger « The Mikan Drill

    The Mikan Drill lets Aaron Craft and William Buford know how they can get the ball to Jared Sullinger, by explaining what last year’s seniors were able to do.

    “What to notice is how Diebler and Lighty do one of two things before they make the entry pass. They either make the pass right away after receiving the ball, before the defense can react, or they force the defense to react to movement which puts them off-balance. They can do this by either a ball fake or a jab step to put the defender on his heels and leave a passing lane to Sullinger. This makes it hard for the defense to get a hand on the entry pass and Sullinger is able to get the ball while isolated.”
