Message: [QUOTE="BuckyBrew, post: 238084, member: 2093"] Well, it may be true that they will be able to get past whoever is guarding them on the perimeter. However, there WILL be another guy standing there waiting for him, and there will be another guy sinking to help the helper. This Badger team is the best team I've ever seen at anticipation and team defensive positioning. They have to be, because they really aren't all that athletic for a top 25 caliber squad. If your guys keep from barreling into the helper for a charge and are adept at the short pull-up jumper or interior passing, you can use your athleticism to score. If your guys are hell-bent on getting to the bucket, there will be a lot of charges and a lot of whining. On the other end of the court, as has been said previously, it's all about making 3s. If UW shoots above 42% from beyond the arc, they will win. If they shoot below 33%, they will lose. Anything in between (which is likely), and it could go either way. [/QUOTE]
