That being said, we need to defend opponents making 3's or they will kill us like they have all year. If we take fewer 3's on a team that can't make them, we can avoid wasting possessions on the court and potentially put some 2's up there. 2 points is better than none.

No skill level to do so consistently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We as a team are shooting 65% (pathetic). Edited January 19, 2014 by Dhambuc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just shoot the thing. He hit the 2 threes he shot, but he pumped faked another 10. The UC player on him was playing off, not expecting a shot, but expecting the pump fake. Is he being coached to do this? He was driving me crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most teams average in the 60's from the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant spin wins/ losses and Team stats Edited January 19, 2014 by Dhambuc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
