If "outside their range" means their toes within an inch or two of the three point line, you are correct. And here is the other thing, with these teams, that may be true that the three point line is outside their natural range, but the really good shooters we will be facing have that range and then some. That is my whole point. If our offense can click through multiple rotations, then so should the defense. But it isn't. I fully anticipate it will get better. But for now it needs work. It is good and right to feel optimistic about the team this year. But it is also okay to notice the short comings.
What about ALL THE REST OF IT?
Give it a rest dude.
How many uncontested layups did we give up?
How many easy put-backs?
How many times did they outrun us down the floor?
How many minutes did our starters play?
How many different lineups did we play?
How much defensive chemistry do you have when someone is taken out every 4 minutes?
I gave you the numbers, FFS.
