The one thing, and it's kind of obvious/important, is the shooting. Right now, we're 300th in the country in 3p% (29.1%) and 138th in 2p% (51.1). A lot of the 3 point shooting is 2 guys; Brisset is 6-24 and Thorpe is 4-14; I assume they will end up a little better than that.
The other stuff all looks really good though. #1 in the country in block rate, which has unsurprisingly lead to elite 2 point defense (37.1%, 3rd in the country). Some of that is schedule, but even last night, we had a block% around 18%, which is elite. Steal%, 6th in the country.
Offensive rebounding; crushing it. 43%, 2nd in the country. Again, somewhat schedule based, but we had an offensive rebounding rate near 50% last night. It's also nice to be good at offensive rebounding if you have trouble shooting. Even the defensive rebounding, which is normally an issue, has held up ok, 75th in the country.
It's still really early, we haven't played a lot of good competition. I have definitely raised my expectations a little from where they were at the beginning of the year though. Kansas will be a very good test.
