I've seen Butler in person at Hinkle the last 2 years. Dunham is not just a standstill shooter. If you let him open, count it as 3. But he can also create his own. Roosevelt Jones is really big/wide and VERY tough to stop going to the hole. Big challenge for the "cats.

I just watched a replay of Butler's Loss to Miami on ESPN 3.
I would think the goals for the game are: * AttacK Jones down low to get him in foul trouble. * Run as much as possible, they played just 7 deep against Temple and only 6 guys had double digit minutes * Double team or put big pressure on Dunham. He is not a physical player, get physical with him and frustrate him. * Score in the post, no real shot blocker for them * Stop the 3. Force them to take 2 point shots. However they aren't as great a 3 point team as you would think as they shoot worse than UC and average about 7-8 a game. I still wouldnt give them open looks |

I wouldn't be surprised if we see our typical defense with them getting open looks from bad shooters, but us not allowing them any space inside. |

Actually just realized how turnover efficient our 3 guards have been (Cobb, Johnson and Caupain).
The guy who has made the biggest turn around is johnson who is averaging just 0.57 TO per game, While Caupain is averaging just 1 TO a game, and Cobb just 1 TO a game. If you compare that to say Xavier's starting point guard Sumner, He has 20 total on the season and thats more than Cobb, Johnson and Caupain combined. Im sure those numbers will get even better later on, So UC has done a much better job of protecting the ball. Once Jenifer gets the flow of the game, Im sure he will no longer lead the gaurds in TO's but even his numbers aren't bad with 10 TO in 7 games. |

The 23 TO I can live with, but that assist total should be at least 30. Shaq and Caupain need to do more driving and dishing than they did this weekend. I'd also like to see more lobs to our big guys once a player drives in the lane, one of our bigs is uncovered almost every time.
