Greetings Cajuns, Pack fan here as well. Just wanted to come over and get some info on the opponent and wish you good luck.
snote- We are definately a better team with Evtimov playing to his potential. In the last few weeks he's found his outside shot and has become even more lethal.
As far as your other question, I would say there are two people that we need to be consistent. That's Atsur and Melvin. When these two shoot the ball consistently we win.
I saw from another post that your team plays predominately man-to-man. Your coach will probably rethink that strategy after seeing the scouting report. Our Princeton style motion offense with multiple backdoor cutters has broken down the best m-t-m defenses. What gives us trouble is an active 1-3-1 zone that guards the perimeter while watching the back door. When the the 3's are falling we break this one down as well, but it has been the most effective way to stop our O.
Defensively, we lose alot without Scooter on the floor, but Cameron Bennerman has really stepped up his play on both ends. If we can get Scooter and Jordan Collins back, we may have the depth to do some damage, but without them we may run out of steam early.
Another factor will be the type game the refs decide to let the teams play. The ACC refs decided to call everything tight and we kept people in foul trouble in the ACC tourney. Our d is pretty stingy and relys on aggressive in your face tactics.
Enough about us, let's here the dirt on you guys. How's your depth, senior leadership, or any weekness' you may have?
