We ranked in the bottom 5% nationally in the number of fouls committed per game. I keep reading about how great our defense is, but committing 34 fouls per game, and losing 2-4 players each game for committing 5 fouls does not equal good defense. Out defenders have poor footwork on defense, reach way too much, and don't always play the high pick-n-roll switch very well.
It may be because of youth, or it may be something more like coaching or effort on the defensive end. But we need to improve significantly to be a factor to win the Sky. A team can't lose the foul-line battle by 10+ every game and expect to win.
