Cal said in the media days conversation that he was considering playing 3 point guards together.

I don't see that much of a problem on the offensive end, but someone has to guard a bigger player on the defensive end!

Yeah, but our guards are all big. That could work great, if they all have quick hands and feet. It could create nightmares for the opponents.

I could even see a devastating attacking 3-2 zone defense with 3 points out harassing the ball handlers and getting easy picks for layups. Could be a ton of fun.

I think we're going to see the dribble drive like cal used to run it at Memphis.

Can't wait to see the Cats in action, should be a fun year with lots of wins.

I wouldn't hold my breath on the pressing 3-2 defense. Even if it would be best Cal is going to play 98% man every year. I would love to see us mix defenses more, but it isn't going to happen. 3 guards could be great. Shouldn't have many turnovers, and we should be able to run in transition. I am hoping to see a fast pace team that Cal lets run. If 2 of the three can shoot the 3 consistently it would be awesome. Can't wait for it all to start.
