[QUOTE="Piotyr, post: 1857039, member: 747104"] Regarding the taking of 3 point shots yesterday, a few notes: - Nebraska's defense is centered around not allowing post opportunities and forcing jumpshots. This is why Dainja wasn't able to get anything going last night. - Forced into jumpshots, the optiosn are long 2, or 3 point shot. 3 point shot is almost always the better option. They were getting good shots, but they just weren't falling. - Despite going 5 for 29 from 3, they won by 16, thanks to their relentless defense, particularly in the last 12 minutes of the game. Continue to play defense like this, and even average offense will win games going away. [/QUOTE]
