I haven't been able to watch tonight but I know Liberty is supposed to be a really good shooting team, is it a luck difference or are we playing better defense tonight?

Well two of their really good shooters are listed at under 6 foot tall. So that's probably playing a part in it. They also haven't played anybody this season, unless you think Carolina University is a quality team.

No problem, i have lots of time.

I am also not watching, but I'm guessing it's a combination of better defense, poor shooting luck and liberty not actually being good.

Someone who actually watches the games here. We definitely played much better defense. Half their points have come in garbage time. We played up on the good shooters a lot better, didn't get lost watching the ball nearly as much. And outside of one fast break play where the guy launched from 9 feet behind the line, were really disruptive and kept them from getting shots up in rythym. There were a couple of times still where a guy was a little too open, but they missed a bunch of those too, so maybe the guy shooting in that moment was open on purpose.

who among us, would you say, is on this sunshine squad you speak of? I think this may be what some may refer to as a false narrative. a strawman, as they say.

Liberty is such a "shitty team" that beating them only jumped us 12 spots in the NET rankings to #30.

When I hear (i think) that that Brett Decker dude leads the country in 3 points made and is 2nd in the country for 3P%, i fully expected him to hang 30+ on us.

Big game against KU today and let me the first to say….KU? More like P U!

The data is incomplete so far. We have several future common opponents. KU has played UNC, Duke, Syracuse, Notre Dame. Wait, is Kansas in the ACC? No they aren’t but you’re forgiven for thinking so given their opponents to date. Unfortunately those data points don’t do us much good yet because those opponents haven’t yet appeared on our schedule. Both teams have had some wins and some losses this year so it’s really a mixed bag of results. One thing I’m gonna keep an eye on, Kansas has not played since Tuesday. Meanwhile the Pack played Wednesday so Kansas could have a little rust with the extra day off.

“Trey White is so good at leaning his body into yours and creating a foul” yeah thats a skill that shouldn’t be rewarded or celebrated. It’s just bad officiating.

Plenty of decent 3 PT looks. Just can’t knock them down.

14 is a bad shooter so I get that we’re ok letting him shoot. But maybe even a bad shooter is pretty decent when he’s unguarded. Idk

We need somebody to step up as a difference maker. Q is the closest thing we have to that. DW just hasn’t been that difference maker in these games vs better opponents.

Kansas is shooting 22% from 3 and 31% total, so the overall strategy of daring him to jack up 3s and stopping everyone else seems to be going fine for now. If we can have him regress to his mean and we regress to our mean on 3s, then we will really be in business.

Defense has mostly been fine. But DW or somebody has to be the alpha and take charge offensively.

Not sure if this is a hot take or not but I think Jay Williams is worse than Jay Bilas…if we’re comparing Duke Jays.

Q has been good this year. Better than I expected. But if he’s our best player, we aren’t gonna go very far. DW, McNeil, Able have to be better.
