I actually feel those metrics don't even fully show how 3-pt dependent they are. You have to remember JT Toppin was taking ~15 2-pt fgs per game. He's obviously no longer playing so I would imagine in the last 5-10 games their 3-pt attempts are even further up as much of those attempts got absorbed by their perimeter shooters, namely Atwell and Anderson. Edit: Atwell in particular we have to run off the line. He averages 9.4 FGA per game. 8.5 of the are 3-pointers. I'm guessing the other .9 is him having his toe on the line /s.

Nice post here on IG with the guys having a good time interviewing each other on slide 2 https://www.instagram.com/p/DWFSWo7iY4W/?igsh=cnp3OWx2ZGUyamM2

I'm hoping our gameplan is to attack the hoop like we did in the 2nd half against Toledo. It helps create a more efficient offense and opens up better looks on the perimeter.

Interesting article for us analytics guys. Points out two factors that may favor Zips (and a few that don't). 1, Advantage Zips in bench points. I discount that somewhat. NIce to bring in fresh bodies but bench points depends on who starts and who plays the most minutes. 2. Advantage Zips in more points in the paint because TT relies on more on 3's. I can understand TT reliance on 3's more due to the Big 12 conference and playing Houston, etc. I suspect they will attempt more in the paint shots that usual. I'm sure Groce will be ready for that as well. GO ZIPS1

All 3 Zips are starting for Flint City!

Hah I thought the same thing

Anyone going to the watch party tomorrow? Planning on getting there at noon and if the set up is bad it leaves me time to reassess

#3 for Vandy looks like Sharron Young.

Understanding the Advanced Statistics Behind the Texas Tech and Akron first-round Matchup https://share.google/Vo4bGxWdCKmulP4Va Really good preview here.

I’m hearing there are current Zips on the Flint City side this evening. US Open Cup game at 6:30 pm ET tonight. Flint City roster (https://midmichigannow.com/sports/local-sports/flint-city-bucks-release-player-roster-for-us-open-cup-match-grand-blanc-tickets-forward-madison-fc-soccer) includes Jack Roman, Matt Dreas, and Matthew Paiva.

Vandy in a tight one too!!

I mean yes. But that they gotta come back and the pressure is still 400% on Duke here. It's probably only a 5% chance, but that's a lot more than the 0.00001% it was not too long ago.

I still expect Duke to win this game by double figures tbh.

That's...slightly less certain than it seems it would be.

#8 is underrated. Just the fact that the next week the world shut down gives it extra aura. Honorable mention for me is 2022 regular season against WMU at the Jar, 10 point comeback in final 2 minutes

#3 for me. Give Lyles credit for that play though. I think I was there for 5 of these. One of my favorite moments was senior night for Ivey. He got a steal at half court that led to a wide open dunk.

I'll go with #3. The defensive stop plus the fastbreak lay-in was an amazing combo.

This might be the tourney of the mid majors.

Welp High Point winning as a 12 seed actually makes me feel less confident in the Zips chances tomorrow. We can't have two 12 seed updates can we?

#5

I think both are true. Our defense did improve greatly along the way, but teams sure came to play us this year. Some teams just didn’t miss.
