In response to Eric Von Zipper
Point spread says it all how Vegas views Lafayette game as being competitive. Tigers barely won last year's game by 2 with Cannady scoring 24. In only 2 games this year, Lafayette has been a high FG and FT% team with a lot of assists and turnovers. They shoot a lot of 3s' but at a 33% clip. They share the ball, hustle although not athletically gifted. No star player but a balanced team -- best player is 6'8" senior who averages 14/11 although Arirguzoh should be able to handle him inside.
Unlike the first two games, Lafayette poses less issues from athletic standpoint but they play team defense and Tigers will have to adjust. This game is probably going to be pretty darn challenging, sad to say, but let's hope not. If the Tigers play well, they should win but ....
After looking at Nets development league team video, the Tigers sorely miss the shooting of Cannady. His stroke is back in the pro league and it is indeed deadly.
Plan to be at the game and will try to find out what is going with Wright and some other players.
