Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 2959859, member: 405"] Yes, I think the biggest challenge will be defending them at the foul line. They could rotate a lot of those mid-sized guys in there who could cause us problems. We have to cut off ball entry into the foul line area as our top priority. As for 3 point shooting, they're not really any better than us, statistically speaking. They shoot 34% as a team to our 33%. I think Buddy and Eli are probably better shooters than they have, but Tyus, Frank and Oshea are less reliable than their guys from outside. They don't have a rim protector, so I think the key is for last year's "Big Three" to try to get to the rim and get to the foul line, and then kick it out to Buddy and Eli for threes. [/QUOTE]
