An interesting battle in this one will be if we can force SMU to take midrange shots. Less than 19% of their attempts come from midrange, but we force our opponents to take more than 35%.

They are pretty balanced overall. A couple areas of weakness are having a lot of shots blocked because they attack the rim so much and relatively poor defensive rebounding. They also don't force a lot of turnovers, so we should be patient on offense and work for a high percentage shot (LOL).

As always with this team I just want to see some evidence that we are capable of running an offense. Right now our starting backcourt trio each have effective field goal percentages under 43%. That's awful. It's like we're running three Trevor Moores out there.
