Just saw Red Storm take down DePaul at DePaul. They're very good, is Red Storm.

Attended the game, the Red Storm is a very quick team, especially Ponds and Lovett.

They shoot over 40% from 3 PT land as well. They don't rebound very well though.........

They shoot over 40% from 3 PT land as well. They don't rebound very well though.........

If you shoot +40% you don't need to rebound very well .
They have 3 guys - Ponds, Ellison and Ahmed - all shooting better than 40% from 3.
And LoVett is shooting 39%
And their best 3 pt shooter - Mussini - is injured.
X's perimeter defense will be tested next Saturday.

It's early but St John's is tied for 1st place with Nova and X at 2-0.
Big game against Creighton at home this Wednesday. Must see TV
Creighton is #2 in the country in 3 pt shooting pct at 43%
Creighton has 7 guys shooting better than 40% from 3. That's crazy.
X's best 3 pt shooter at this point in the season is Bernard at 38%. And his career average coming into this year was 24%.

Beware! We cannot go to sleep on these Redmen. Mullin has real players this year
