1. Recapping Texas Southernstarts at 1:00
Zeb Jackson for ten minutes—just want that guy getting some confidence in his shot. Interesting high-low with Terrance Williams, since he’s not a spot-up threat right now: keep him on the court with Dickinson. Speaking of Dickinson: don’t want him contesting 20% guards—fouling out was just a ref show. Other wings turned down open catch and shoot threes.t
2. Previewing LSUstarts at 20:22
Iowa stats but get there the opposite way: all the Isolation, very few baskets are assisted. They don’t play defense—Michigan will have to shoot well but that’s the big difference. Good news is Michigan just played at the football stadium in the BTT so they’re a bit used to shooting with the backdrop. LSU’s shooting is opponent-invariant, they don’t clean up their own boards because they try to block everything. Worried that LSU is so good at getting calls and converting at the line.
