Feels like a must win today. Hopefully OAK is able to give it a go, if not the perimeter defense will need to step up with the lack of rim protection behind him. Hopefully Thursdays close win and hot shooting will spark some confidence and belief to finish this 4-game homestand strong. It is important for this team to not fall in love with the deep ball. Thursdays shooting performance was amazing, but certainly not the norm. Paint touches are key. Have to get those paint points up. Paint touches create good looks from the outside. Looking at Mingo to be the catalyst for getting to the basket, if OAK is indeed out, then Cade Gibbs can help in that department as well. Big opportunity for Nate to have a game that gets him back in rhythm. He needs to be decisive and aggressive. Don't force bad shots. GA SO turns the ball over a ton and we are good at turning teams over. Would be a good game to pick up the ball pressure and get out and run in transition.
Marshall is 196 in KP. GA SO is 278. Herd has a ORTG is 104 (209th in the country) and a DRTG 106.5 (183rd). The Eagles have a ORTG 98.9 (308th) and a DRTG of 108.2 (222nd). Morally of the story is that our defense should get after them today.
