Us not shooting 3?s doesn?t stop our opponent from shooting 50+% from 3.

This is an odd team for sure. Nobody can shoot from distance when set.

We play good 3 D in spurts. On ball D is what causes the breakdowns; we failing there bad. When on ball breaks down then the first and second kickout to open shooter after a rotation. On ball D is our issue. Hubbard lets his guy by too much relying on help. Can't have that.

Hub needs only to shoot his shot on 3, no force. When he does he is good.

Harris, Kugel and RJ can shoot the 3 but again must be limited and be open shot. All 3 are streaky. Jones if wide open and feet set can hit it.

Yea but it stops us from going 6-25 from three.

Unfortunately, shooting 3's is what the game is about now days. Having a big man inside is not going to happen for the majority of teams in college. It's about scoring and not turning the ball over. But having a good point guard is still critical.

But every time we try to take it to the rack, it's like we slam it off the backboard trying to break it. Don't kid yourself thinking our guys have a soft touch laying it in or shooting a floater. We're just a bad shooting team that also translates into us being one of the worst Free Throw shooting teams in the SEC.
