POSSESSION IS NINE-TENTHS OF THE LAW
Since arriving in Minnesota, Head Coach Adrian Heath has often made it clear that his preferred method of attack is breaking down the opposition through possession. The personnel he’s had to work with, however, have not always been up to the task. In their first two years in the league, the Loons found a good deal of their offensive success through counterattacking. Although Quintero’s arrival gave the team an individual player who could draw double teams and open up space with the ball at his feet, it was not really until the first game of 2019 that we’ve gotten to see a Heath team with confidence in possession.
