Why do we shoot so many 17ing threes? Oh my God, we freaking suck at it. Why do we shoot so many? It's unbelievable at this point.

Teams are basically letting us shoot 3’s. Most of the time teams are playing a 2-3 zone against us and basically giving us open 3 looks.

We look good for a while, still can’t shoot, find a way to lose. Wash, rinse, repeat.

The reason they are so bad at it is they are too far away from the basket!** it is simple Physics with a little Geometry, Trigonometry, Calculus and Differential Equations rolled in. We need to sign engineering majors to our basketball team. *** Simple solution really.

Malik Newman is shooting 38% from behind the arc and has made 6 more than anyone else on our team. He and Kegler are two huge missing pieces. Probably best to be without their drama though.

Because, Howland is all about the defense! We don't need any threes anyway because it's all about that D, baby! It wins championships!!!!**********

44% of

our shots were 3s last night.

Thats absolutely unacceptable.

If I were an opposing coach, I'd do nothing but zone us.

Tyson was 2/10. Unreal.

If we had taken 1/2 of our 3pa and turned them into 2pa, we win.

A few weeks ago it was stated on here we need to keep shooting until we make them, we are still waiting to make them.

Shoot your way out of a slump only works if you're really a good shooter going through a slump. If you're a bad shooter, it's a terrible strategy.
