I thought I heard somewhere that Houston blocks 18% of the 2 pt shots attempted against them. That's as athletic as it gets.BC Wave wrote: ↑Wed Jan 18, 2023 9:44 amWe tried going inside but could not get clear shots.Show Me wrote: ↑Tue Jan 17, 2023 10:24 pmSweet 16 at best. We are a poorly coached team. Our talent level is not 20pts different. I can’t believe we tried to out 3pt them when our game is going inside. Cook struggling was the biggest reason we got beat. UCF gave Houston a better game. The Cougars just have Hunters number. They defend well whereas we don’t. They had open 3’s and knocked them down. They were off for 5 days straight and studied film on us. Whereas we’ve played a few games in 6 days or so. We faded at the end because we were tired. No fault of the kids. For most of the game Houston looked beatable. Only when we got tired did they pull away. The league is weak this year so they may win out but I’d be surprised to see them in the Final 4 this year.
Moral victory for Hunter as he was happy with the way we played.
Too many clean blocks, not counting those defended with contact.

Yeah, I heard that too. I think it was on ESPN+. I thought at the time "that's about the percentage of Jalen Cook's 2 point shots that get blocked." Doesn't stop him, though!RobertM320 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 19, 2023 1:02 pm I thought I heard somewhere that Houston blocks 18% of the 2 pt shots attempted against them. That's as athletic as it gets.

Houston shot 20% less FG % & 3 pt % than in Nola…. And only had half the number of 3’s….shot like they owned the place @ Tulane.
What really got them today was only shooting 50% from the FT line….. still out rebounded Temple.
