I suppose this game shows OR% is more important than FT rate. It was a weird game with a weird flow, but the junk defense Floyd threw out in the first half contributed to that. Our bad run in the 2nd half was really poor, but fortunately we had more good runs and finished well. Defensively the concern is that smaller teams that like to drive the ball could give us some troubles (see Missouri), especially if they have a big that can attack the rim.
Long Beach provides an interesting match-up. They are a team that really isn't great, but also really isn't bad at anything.
