recovery.
If you watch, their pressing, trapping style was tried by other teams. Where they differ most is in their recovery. BYU is used to passing out of those traps and getting open shots. Against Houston, we had several jump shots blocked when Houston recovered faster than expected. The team learned from those but Houston continued to take away shots we were used to getting.
The key to us beating Houston is scheming a better exit from their half-court trap off the screens at the arc and scheming some better opportunities at the rim.
