[QUOTE="JFGsCoffeeMug, post: 1579472, member: 74571"] This Michigan team has the Baylor-like quality of continually stifling the offensive momentum of their opponents. Once they build a substantial lead, it just feels like there's no opportunity for a comeback. A 10-pt lead can effectively feel like 20. It's demoralizing. I guess that's what it looks like for a team to be top ten in both offensive and defensive efficiency. Their offense keeps putting points on the board, and their defense makes it hard for you to make up any ground against them. They're a little turnover-prone. And I think they're a little thin at the center position. But they have length, so putting some early fouls on Dickinson doesn't necessarily sink them. I don't think they can stop Kofi, but we're going to struggle against their length. Going to need really good ball movement to get open shots against them. [/QUOTE]
