re: Terrible Outside Shooting

quote:

contested threes aren't high probability shots and we settle for them more often than not. Our guards rarely attack and get the ball to the basket or try to draw fouls. Our team shouldnt be trying to drain threes to close out a game they should get the ball into the paint. That's what Texas A&M did every possession while we launched prayers.

This is true.... But you have to want the ball. Those 2 get thrown around like tag dolls in the paint.
Other thing is Hornsby was what 3-4 on 3s with 8-10 min left in the first half... Dude didn't touch the ball again with a chance to shoot until the 2nd half was half way over. Why not feed the hot hand?
Mickey gets abused against someone with some weight quit giving it to him when he is ineffective
