Mike: It's accurate that Boeheim has mentioned the three-guard calendar added than a few times this preseason. But that doesn't necessarily beggarly that he affairs on application a absolute defense.

The capital acumen for activity absolute with a three-guard calendar is that in the area aegis one of the guards would accept to comedy the backline of the area adjoin bigger opponents.

But in the accomplished two years, Syracuse has put Malachi Richardson and Andrew White on the backline. They are about the aforementioned admeasurement as Tyus Battle, who is a solid 6-foot-6 and 205 pounds.

I absolutely anticipate this year's aggregation looks like a prototypal area team. It all begins with the guards. Syracuse's starting guards amount to be Battle and Frank Howard. They go 6-6 and 6-5, respectively. That's a alpine and continued bike at the top of the zone.

The assiduously are all 6-foot-8 or taller. I absolutely wouldn't appetite to put centers Paschal Chukwu and Bourama Sidibe in a absolute bearings to due their abridgement of lower anatomy strength.

Bill brings up an absorbing point about Syracuse accepting a lot of new players who aren't acclimated to the area defense. It's accurate that best players haven't played area defense, decidedly one like the one that Boeheim uses.
