Pretty simple, Birds 4-22 from 3 points today. Live by the 3, die by the 3.
A more balanced offensive scheme would also create more than 6 FT for the game. The problem is that even when they finally put Dusan and Abdou on the floor together at the end, they didn’t change the offensive set. SIU made the extra pass today that they didn’t yesterday and they played with a 4&5 on the floor quite a bit which created some matchup problems for Birds, resulting in Redbird fouls from guards matching up with bigs. Two teams that are both missing a lot of pieces.
