@justanotherfan said in Malik Newman Offensive Highlights: @JayHawkFanToo I heard a coach once say that offense is about skill, defense is about effort. That seems about right to me. The things you do on offense - shooting, passing, dribbling - are all about having certain abilities. The things you do on defense have some skill elements, but chances are if you have the physical talent to be good on offense, you can carry those same things to the defensive end, and if you work hard, can be a solid defender. Trying harder will make you a better defender. It won’t necessarily make you a better shooter/passer/dribbler. And THIS is why guys ball hog in AAU and summer camps.
