I saw that, and I question Jay's data . . . as you note, the defenses that SU has faced through 20 games (both in and out of conference) have not been stellar.
 
Nobody asked me, and nobody is going to listen to me, but I have a few ideas about the half court sets.

by "fever" I mean sclerotic half court offense, and by "cowbell" I mean Dirty.
 
I repeat my belief that JB is drastically mis-using a potent offensive weapon by having him lurk on the perimeter and only run pick-and-pops for him.
 
I'm not saying to build the offense around him, but if you are going to have him on the court, why not maximize his skills? Every opponent knows he is primarily a 3 point shooter and overplays him on the high screens . . . so why not run a couple of high screen and rolls for him? I bet he'd be wide open and he can't be a worse finisher than Melo or (shudder) Keita.
 
Also, initiate a couple of possessions with James at the high post, where he can drive, dish or shoot his money 15 footer.
 
I'm just talking about 5 or 6 possessions a game, and it would open things up for everyone if successful.
