Eyes in the back of Our heads

Seton Hall looks like the 1930’s Princeton squad at times. Without any kind of real post presence their “center” will often set screens at the top of the key and side step the defender for a 3 point attempt. More often than that though, with the lane clear, Seton Hall incessantly drives and dishes to players lurking on the baseline. Back door cuts and short-armed passes to the rim are the name of their paint game.

Louisville Forwards will have to have their head on a swivel and put a body on whoever is close to prevent these slips and slides on offense all while, again, staring a hole through Myles Powell. Seton Hall averages 3.5 assist in their losses and 15.5 assist in their wins(whoaaaa). Pay attention!
