SM said they're playing like individuals on D. I wonder would D counter that tendency??

78% from the floor and 80% from deep. They will cool off, just cant dig too deep of a hole.

DP shooting about 80% from the field. SM's tolerance is 96%. He will go zone when that happens. DP may not score 130 points then. Worse coached game at X in the first 12 minutes since 1958. This ain't a mid-major league, where the bottom 1/4 of this conference can beat Top 50 teams on any given night.

Depaul is shooting 77% . Give me a break. They are not a GOOD OFFENSIVE TEAM. Play some defense. They are totally confident..Wake up.

Colby Jones and Jerome Hunter each with two fouls,
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

DePaul can't shoot any better they scored off set plays and even when they were scrambling they hit shots. almost 70% in first half and 7-10 from three

Depaul with 49 first half points. Brutal, Hunter was invisible. Jones needs to get going too. Nunge was great. Throw it inside and get Edwards in there. Very poor effort all the way around. Not ready to play. We had better pick it up.

Miller making Stubblefield look like Pitino. Bigs just setting high ball screens and giving guards like Gibson the option to drive, shoot, or pass. It's especially effective when you have guys like Boum and especially Kunkel guarding you. 70% from 3 and the field. Praying DP's fg percentage hits 96% so X plays their vintage zone for 8 seconds, before going back to man.

SM's defensive scheme makes the NBA All Star Game look like Wisconsin vs VA. Embarrassing display. I almost think a loss would be beneficial, even if it drops X a seed line to a five. Then, maybe SM will actually change defenses every once in a while. Nah, but one can dream!

When they are shooting hot from 3 zone typically doesn’t work. Kunkle and Claude getting abused on offense. We have to get around the high ball screen or Nunge needs to switch sometimes. Hunter looking like last year Hunter
