Title: [Paint Touches] How (un)clutch is Marquette’s defense?
Post by: PaintTouches on December 08, 2017, 12:52:51 PM
Is Marquette's defensive efficiency actually worse when it matters most?

Nice job.  From the chart, the only place MU can defend is the right of key (17%). 

Beside the horrid at the rim defense stressed in the article:

> Treys excluding right of key:  57%
> Twos excluding those at rim: 56%

If I remember right, right of the key is where MU hedges most to prevent movement, leaving a field day for the remaining 80% of the court.  Brutal, just brutal scheme.
