Where Is Mr. Automatic?
NORFOLK, Va. -- Jonathan Wallace is one of the best pure shooters in the country. He shots 49 percent from deep last year and hit the big bucket against UNC in the Elite Eight. But almost three and a half games into the season, his shot doesn't seem to be there.
Wallace is one-for-three from deep tonight, making him 7-of-19 on the year. That clip, 37 percent, isn't terrible, but it is not what Wallace is used to.
In general, Georgetown is just not taking great shots. Hibbert scores almost every time he gets the ball and has nine early, but when they don't dump it into him, it has been an ill-advised runner by Sapp or a questionable mid-range J by Summers.
The Hoyas, after ODU tied the game at 21, just ran out to a 26-21 lead on a lay-in by Hibbert and a three by Pat Ewing Jr. Ewing is an extremely solid three-point shooter and really should take that shot a bit more often.
Hibbert has nine and six with 2:16 left in the half.
