Our 3 best shooters in the starting lineup were 4/30 (field / 3pt). We won't win games with these stats. Malik didn't miss a shot all game. But, he only played 18min. 4/4 FTs
tonight was a shooting nightmare

Yeah but McMahon’s shots might have well come from half court. The bulk of his shots were five feet out of his range.
The scouting report on this team is simple. They are not very sharp with the passes and leave themselves very susceptible to steals like in the Duke game and steals lead to easy open basket with good chance for and-1-FT. Most of our offense revolve around the guard passing the ball amongst each other at the top then someone jacking up a defended 3. Defender just turn around and rebound the missed ball. They don't move well without the ball. Nwora in the middle of the zone is a hit or miss since he's not a good passer.
CRP usually break the zone by having 2 forwards in the middle at each elbow. The ball gets passed into one and the other player fade to the rim. Defender has to choose between guy with the ball or the guy running to basket. It like a pick and roll without the pick. The player that gets the ball at the T can pass it out for step-in 3, to the open player fading to rim or to the open guard in corner if the corner defender decide to help at the basket.

Against a team like Syracuse,you get baited into taking so many 3's. It's what they want you to do,what they invite you to do. If you oblige by taking those early in the shot clock,all the better.
