Message: [QUOTE="mntncougar, post: 2076136, member: 7543"] While on the whole I think the team defense is pretty good, there seems to be a glaring weakness that shows up fairly often. They are lousy at defending the 3 ball against teams that have shooters. Today and the last game showed that to some extent. Usually that has been buried by a lopsided score, but there have been a few times, including Tulane, where it was evident. In one respect they have gotten better. For a good part of the season there were often shooters beyond the arc left wide open; no one even near them. Now that doesn't happen except occasionally. But even now opponents that try seem to get off and make threes with regularity. Eliminate or minimize that problem and I don't think there is a team that has a chance to hang with them. [/QUOTE]
