nah I dont think so...I think there is more than enough scoring on the team. Most p5 teams dont ahve 5 double digit scorers.  I think the reason for these lulls is going away from what works, poor shot selection and scheming, and just overall stretches of poor decision making. its as if the entire team turns off a the same time. it happens every game seemingly.

I think the lulls are entirely mental.

for instance, su has 5 players averaging over 12 points a game this season! thats a lot!

Duke, only has 2!

baylor has 3.

gonzaga has 3

auburn has 3.

I think sometimes the offense just gets unbalanced...once a rough patch starts its like the team goes in its shell...the team has a plethora of options and needs to be careful how it keeps them all working together. with this many scorers the isolation offense makes absolutely ZERO SENSE in my opinion.

yeah bench scoring would be nice but this team has a higher number of high level scoring threats than pretty much any team out there...the problem with long droughts doesnt come from lack of a bench imo

i think there is some dysfunction in how the team works its offense...or at least a higher level it can acheive with these players...especially against good defesnese that render the team futile apparently...
