Message: [QUOTE="Fly Rodder, post: 5320580, member: 2133"] A dunker. Oh that's cool. Currently, Syracuse is in the 5th percentile (in D1) in the difference of 3 pointers made compared to their opponent. As of the Louisville game, SU has given up 47 more threes made to their opponents or 141 points. They've also attempted 97 [B]fewer[/B] threes than their opponents (7th percentile in D1), good for last in the ACC. They have attempted 82 more 2pt FG than their opponents and made 34 more than their opponents or 68 points. It's not advanced analytics to say that 141 points is more than 68 points. 73 points over 17 games is 4.3 points per and would bring their scoring average up to 4th/5th in the ACC. Generally, poor offenses take more twos because that's what opposing defenses give them. That's SU's offensive philosophy. [/QUOTE]
