Shooting 3’s

This team needs to understand their strengths are inside. They are not a good 3 point shooting team. Defense is great and inside game is great.

If we had Miller..... sickening to think about

One of the worst things that could happen was Days making every three he looked at early. He thinks as soon as it hits his hand it should go up.

I’m pretty sure Wade realizes this. Lemme check.

Can't agree more. I'd much rather this team play the amazing defense that is has been playing and push the ball inside. I'd rather win 60 to 40, rather than trying to throw up 3's. Shoot them every so often, but this is a top 5 defensive team!

It’s the type of threes we are taking that kills us. Wade was pretty pissed about it last night. I don’t mind this team shooting threes when the ball moves to the open shooter but the no pass or one pass possessions that end with a three are killer.
The one pass threes mean the defense will be in position for the rebound. If we move the ball around make their defense work and slide them out of position we have a good shot at the offensive board. Which is why I don’t mind this team shooting the three when they move the ball around to get to the open three.

I can’t imagine teams aren’t gonna figure out they just need to play a 2-3 zone all game long ..hell…a 1-4 zone even lol. I’d never let LSU get near the paint until they make a few

Inside game has potential to be very good, but I hesitate to say it is right now. Right now, we do not effectively get the ball inside to Reid. We missed several opportunities last night when he was open and had a path to the rim. When we did get it to him, he had to work hard to get his jump hook off - a shot which could be devastating once he gets even more confidence in it and we design more opportunities for him.
Eason is a beast going to the basket and we need to open the middle up for him a bit more. Good 3-point shooting would help there.
Fudge has the potential to slash to the basket and receive a pass and finish. He is not the driver that Eason is, but he is athletic and quick.
In short, there is great promise and flashes of potential greatness, but there much work yet to do to compete with Duke, Gonzaga, and other basketball elites and I hope they do it. This team has the potential to compete for a championship.

They need to get Wilkenson more shots

Defense will be good but you have to adjust the level of effectiveness to the competition. It’s easy to smother guys that won’t sniff professional basketball. I’m afraid this scheduling has not prepared them at all for what they will see in the SEC, in terms of athleticism.
They are going to have to find other ways to score. The 3pt efficiency won’t improve against better competition; and it’s been horribly bad
The half court offense is painful to watch.

Parker Edwards should be the only player with the green light.
