    This is the biggest issue with the coaching staff. When 2 pointers are going in at a 55% clip then shooting 43% from 3 won't do much from an exchange standpoint. Additionally, I think they fear going into a gigantic deficit because our defense is bad so they would rather take 2s.

    Here's the Wisconsin Game. If we start adding one 3 point shot and taking away one 2 point shot Indiana would need to  take 4 more 3s to increase their point total by 1 point. Not really a good exchange. The biggest issue during this game was our defense. We scored 79 points which was more than enough to win. I do believe taking more 3s will decrease turnovers and provide better spacing for Ware and Malik but our defense is dumb on so many possessions.

    Dumb Defense...2 beers and a shot to that...

    you would need to subtract the number of 2 pointers we typically would make but not take by taking 5-6 more 3's. Don't know what that would be but I'm pretty sure the "15-18 points" goes way down given how efficient IU is in the paint.

    Or  subtract missed 2 or turnovers.. or 1 and 1...etc

    That's definitely still true.

    At 15.75 attempts per game in conference play, we're firmly last, more than two full attempts behind the next lowest team. Which is surprisingly Iowa. Ten of the fourteen B10 teams are above 20 per game, with Nebraska leading with 24.8 per.

    20 at the least thats making 5-6 ...15-18 points how many games is that a poss W or close

    Funny how narratives get formed and stick. In Big Ten play, Indiana is holding teams to just 31% from three, best in the conference. They're shooting 34.4% from three themselves, right in the middle of the pack at eighth in the conference, and a mark would be 162nd nationally, above the median.

     

    I wished they shot more 3s... im not saying jack em up, but theres been alot of pass ups

    Trey finally shows the kind of senior leadership we need... Both on the road and at home...

    And I think having Anthony, who's building up even more cred with his younger teammates by not only talking the talk, but walking the walk, out there makes Galloway a better player... The chemistry is definitely there...

    I know this game will be downplayed, and no one is stamping it as a signature win, but any road victory in this league is valuable, especially coming from 18 back... Even the most virulent critic has to acknowledge that these kids fought and didn't give up... 

    Leal might be the lug nuts this team needs
