How far do we start dropping when we start playing - tgr MU

- 12/5 10:24:32

That is the pessimistic outlook, - nerdmachine KC - 12/5 10:29:50

To the original point, I wouldn't be surprised if we - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 12/5 10:40:02

We've seen 70% of those games against teams that are - StaleyTiger MU - 12/5 10:12:44

To be fair the average ppg includes an overtime game - nerdmachine KC - 12/5 10:22:01

I removed the overtime period from that 70.5 number.(nm) - StaleyTiger MU - 12/5 10:25:02

striving for the top! - restore the roar MU - 12/5 09:53:12

Thus far our combined avg opponent points per 100 poss - FIJItiger MU

What is Xavier and Davidson's combined off efficiency? - nerdmachine KC - 12/5 09:52:06

Those two teams avged 77 points against us - FIJItiger MU

- 12/5 09:56:37

I like how you didn't mention the Xavier game went to OT - nerdmachine KC - 12/5 10:04:18

It is difficult. They are just doing such a bad - FIJItiger MU

- 12/5 10:11:09

Here is the question for you, - nerdmachine KC - 12/5 10:25:27

There's still some aspects of the offense that I don't like - wu-tangtiger MU - 12/5 10:40:42

Not sure I follow, they are essentially living up to - FIJItiger MU

- 12/5 10:32:21

Xavier shot 5% below their season average - wu-tangtiger MU - 12/5 10:13:53

It's a matter of making shots, - nerdmachine KC - 12/5 09:49:06

It's more than just making shots. - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 12/5 10:46:01

Yea if Hughes and CVL would start shooting - wu-tangtiger MU - 12/5 10:30:07

the inability to make layups and open shots is amazing - SuperTone MU

- 12/5 09:42:03

It's really the only reason we aren't doing better, - nerdmachine KC - 12/5 09:45:09

this is Kim's best defensive team - Doc James USA - 12/5 09:49:49
