In response to JadwinGeorge
Metu is also a shot blocker. USC is big, mixes man with zone. Saw them get beat pretty badly by SMU in Dallas, but they're good. Tigers will have to protect the ball, shoot well from three, and finish hard at the rim. When USC is in man, Metu should be drawn away from the basket.
Defensively, the Trojans will not pick you apart with slick passing and ball movement, so Princeton needs to be aggressive doubling and helping on drives and post-ups. Get some deflections, box out like crazy.
In a Saturday where-is-USC-now article, the L.A. Times mentioned Princeton only in passing as a "tune-up." Let's hope the Trojans are in the same mindset and that the Tigers come out loose and aggressive.
