Message: [QUOTE="Hey Adrien!, post: 5173320, member: 5787"] [ATTACH type="full"]106348[/ATTACH] Here's updated analytics, but instead with Butler's Big East conference ranks. Butler is just 1-4 since we've last played them and the biggest difference in our next matchup is that Matta has eschewed the small ball lineup w/ Patrick McCaffery at the 5 to return back to a more traditional "big" lineup w/ Screen starting at center, McCaffery at 4, and Brooks/Telfort as the non-point backcourt mates. Kolby King since taken over the starting point guard spot over Bizjack, even though play PGs play approximately the same amount. Last scouting report, I totally slept on sophomore center Brooks Kapke. Following the injury to Augusto Cassia, Kapke has stepped up to become a unique depth piece as a physical 6'11 255 low-post presence while also showcasing a unique ability to stretch the floor (37.5 3P%). Lineups with Screen/Moore on the bench provides Butler w/ five guys shooting 35%+ from three. Also, this is a good game for UConn's 3s to step up offensively as Pierre Brooks is a fun guy to watch play YMCA basketball on offense, but he's a weak defender and lacks footspeed. Jaylin Stewart didn't score last matchup, but he can have a big game w/ Brooks on him and also, Butler is at a distinct defensive disadvantage when McCaffery is out and Brooks plays the 4, so good opportunity for Karaban too.
