Purdue game

[Sbee]

lots of things to like on offense but tons of defensive mistakes. I like the 3 pt focus since they are weak on the perimeter and they have a game changing defender inside. lots of defenders out of position leading to easy baskets and fouls. we weren't fouling because we were getting aggressive or too physical, we were out of position and had to lunge at guys.

also, people will say that we just were hot from 3 which is true but there was a lot of good ball movement and finding those open shooters. we were trying to draw hammons away from the hoop when he was on payne too.

nice to see appling at least attempt a field goal

Hopefully Appling can get enough strength back in that wrist soon to get his shot back. He's still needed to be an offensive threat.

Love having 26 assists. Moved the ball well, and most of the our 3 pointers were wide wide open. Bad defense though and we did not move our feet.

Appling and trice combine for 15 assists, even if applings ahot isn't back ill take the game he had last night on Sunday

9 assists is good. 4 turnovers not as much. Even if his shooting range is limited he could still try to attack the basket some, since that's a strength of his anyway. But after Sunday he's got almost a week to continue to heal up.

He was attacking but dishing and not finishing, that's what you have to do against hammons though.

We had a ton if assists but 3's are way more likely to get assists than baskets in the paint. We weren't posting up or getting put backs, I'd expect some more balance as we get healthy
