Thanks for sharing.

Will the Tigers continue to gain traction in IL play as the season progresses or lose steam? The upside might be a function of continuing to play strong defense with the recent improvement in rebounding combined with significantly improved shooting. I cannot remember when the Tigers were at the bottom of the IL as to FG% (40%) and 3 pt% (32%). It reminds me last year when the Harvard Board properly predicted that the Crismon's non-conference shooting woes would not continue based on prior performance of the players. The same could be argued regarding the Tigers as the group shot 45% and 37% last year -- only significant departure Amir Bell.

The downside is obviously that the other teams shooting better against the Tigers as they are currently shooting 43% and 33%. Additionally, the Tigers may tail off a bit based on current FT % of 75%.

time will tell.
