marq leads the league in 3pt fg % and makes. obviously a key in what they do. will even look for fast break pull up 3s.

though fischer CAN post, but they don't run it through him necessairly. though he will kick out. and he will score from midpost, back to basket. bigs have to wall up and take him out of game.

spead attack. four around one, five out. don't sleep...rousey will go by you to cup, where he drops off, or kicks out. .

sometimes will stick hauser in there. he rebounds, and helps scoring in paint. they STILL will look for jumpers.

will run a weave series. it's pretty effective. when possible switch it.

likes to push pace. these guys are not walking the ball up. communicate constantly. and get back.

watch out for pin downs, to drive with a drift on short corner. don't get sucked in too much on drives. they are looking to kick out.

johnson is a better shooter.

rinehart makes plays inside and out...mostly by shooting. will pull up from MAD deep.



defensively

will blitz/show hard on ball screens. make them pay by rolling to cup, finding him, or hitting an outlet who hits the cutter

sagging man can mimic zone when you don't move. important to skip it, as shots will be there.

1 3 1 at times. hit the corners with ball movement.

attack with overload if they go 2-3. honestly the 2 3 sucks hahah think it's used as a change of pace, hesitation producer

AGAIN, the bigs will have chances to score. expect the hoyas to rock one big alot. to matchup with mu. BUT if they can get two bigs going, say a derrickson, it may make mu change their stuff. a battle of who can impress their style on the game.

whoever fischer is guarding...take him off the bounce. all day. you may be able to effectuate that, since they will switch some ball screens.

other stuff

mu is a poor rebounding team. kind of soft for real. bang them down low on glass. own it!
