Having that one extra capable scorer eases the sting of having one of your major scorers abilities dampened by a defender.

First off, humbled and mind blown that our team is even mentioned anywhere near this conversation!
Second off, part of the reason why we've been so successful is because we know when to stop playing defense to go protect our shooters by setting picks on the opponent's defenders. We are able to transition quickly from banging into the opposing offense to cutting off their defenders, and we're lucky that we have a driver that can pull it off! This way we try to frame the holistic offense for the match in more of a 2 (us) vs 1.5 (them) in the sense that we can't stop an amazing robot from putting up points, we just try to slow them down enough to give our shooters a chance while also trying to protect our partners from being harassed.
