Trice & Forbes tend to pop from 3. Valentine will do a little of everything - very dangerous passer - but none of their perimeter guys draw contact on the drive. None overly athletic.

They score a lot by passing the ball.

I think this means we will go zone. With the way we gamble and seem to always be out of position on our man defense, they could shred us. Granted, they could still in a zone, but I thought we played much better defense last night in the zone.

That benefits MU then since we seem to be indefensible against quick guard play.  My guess is MSU will pound the ball inside for the mismatch, trying to draw defenders in and then routinely kick it out to the open wing for a 3 - if they're not abusing MU inside.  Otherwise, they'll just keep going down low.  But -If MU can hold them in the paint, and lose by less than 10 -that's a victory in my book.

We need to go zone against any team that isn't crap. We are too small and we don't have few if any good man-to-man defenders. When we play a team that shoots it great from 3, we'll lose. But that's what we have to do. No defense can take away everything and I prefer to eliminate the kind of layup parade we saw against Ohio State and Omaha.

  Too much Talent
  Too much Height
  Too much Coaching

  But I'll try to focus on any improvement from last night.  No matter if its inches, baby steps, minutes, anything so long as there is a positive upward trend.  Not concerned with the final score, just the lessons we are learning.
