The last two games, the opposing defenses have been designed to stop aggressive Paul.
Aggressive Paul results in him getting turned, stuffed, forced to the baseline with no options or a low percentage turn around fadeaway because of a sea of bodies in his path.
Paul popped a perfect momentum towards the basket pull up jumper against Illinois he should be taking 20 times a game when facing a defense that’s hell bent on not allowing him to drive to the basket.
Make the D overplay the shot, it will open up other options.
Michigan State played him incorrectly in the 2nd half and Izzo said as much.
Quality teams are waiting for aggressive Paul imo.
To me aggressive also means shooting
