Re: Best Fender shooters

244's defense in the first match was exemplary, but if one is to say that fender defense isn't effective, that's no excuse. I cannot at all deny what you're saying - fender defense CAN BE very effective, even against such good teams - except to note that 548 refused to avoid the defense (when 244 was up against the fender, 548 drove right up into them instead of staying right off and shooting from there). They're aren't quite built for it, but they can shoot from a yard off, even pretty well. Not sure why they didn't switch to that strategy midmatch (maybe it's a bit too much to expect from drivers or a bit too far? If you think so, I'd be willing to defer to experience and expertise), but it looked that they considered feeding balls to 217 to be a better (higher %?) shot for the second match. Definitely one good example of great and highly effective fender defense.
