Message: [QUOTE="tzznandrew, post: 5229362, member: 168"] You can't play high-low on offense if the "high" player in that pairing won't shoot. Because then you play off of him and deny the paint. And now you've clogged the lane without any discernible benefit. I also don't think our guards really jacked contested 3s. Most of the looks were fairly clean. OU really worked hard to run us off the line, but we didn't make their overplaying pay. I think Reed and Samson are different enough—and that pairing [I]has [/I]been pretty solid in smaller minutes—but if the other team isn't guarding our big on the top of the key and we cannot make them pay, no offensive scheme is ultimately going to get us better looks in the paint or on the line.
