"we have several guys who can do this [set up at foul line, take that shot, or drive/pass]" -- except we really don't. We have one guy -- CJ. The others (Kris, James, Rak) have never done much scoring from that point.
 
To attack a 2-3 zone (in addition to that high post threat), you want a couple of high percentage shooters who can find an opening at the top of the key, the corner, or the creases. You might like a low post scorer, inside passing (as G-town and Louisville do against our zone), and a second forward who can finish inside.
 
We didn't have a lot of those ingredients working yesterday. Simple facts are that our two better guards aren't zone busters from the outside, and our two centers don't provide much inside scoring. We have to get James, Kris, BT and CJ good shots (we did), and they have to make them (other than James, they didn't).  And, we need to get turnovers and get out in transition before the zone sets up (not enough of that).
