Title: A stat that I just read... Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on February 24, 2019, 07:28:02 EST In our last 2 losses, opposing guards have shot 40 free throws. Our guards have shot 4 free throws in those two games. (I'll admit to being lazy and not looking this up to verify it, but it seems likely to be accurate.)

In those 2 losses to KY and LSU they combined shot 30 more FTs than we did...No matter how good you are that is very hard to overcome. Title: Re: A stat that I just read... Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on February 24, 2019, 10:06:44 EST Yes there is no doubt about that. Going forward, Barnes and this team must find a way to keep guards out of the paint on a consistent basis or I don't think this team has any chance. Our defense has been suspect already of late, imo, but penetration just completely destroys a D.
