Because there's too much there to leave it alone.

1. They have two bigs! Sure one is a complete stiff on defense as all the metrics say, but at least he's tall! Maybe VT should roll out Ojiako, matchup nightmare because he's big!

2. He's not a good post defender as the metrics indicate AND Mutts converted on his opportunities. 0-for-2.

3. So it helps them in one unique situation you brought up? Cool straw man argument there.

4. 3's are harder because they're long? Wrong. Below is a link that will show you why that's wrong. "3-point defense" is really just preventing ATTEMPTS. Sure you can have some impact from contesting with "length", but in reality that's not a huge impact. Surely not worth shooting 20% below your season 3-point average. The fact we got off 26-attempts (and surely if you were to go back and watch you'd realize they were pretty good looks, we weren't just jacking them from the logo) is a good indication that UNC wasn't all that successful at preventing 3-point attempts.

You seem like someone that understands the strategy of basketball but has ignored the movement towards advanced statistics. And with that I'm done. This was a fun argument, we're still Hokies so I'll leave it at that. If I were to ever meet you in a bar I'll buy you a beer, maybe at the ACCT title game considering I bought a flight and hotel on the prayer that VT will be there.
