At one point we were 0/26 in these final two home games. That is hard to believe.
I’m a law of averages guy, shots are bound to start going in soon. we missed so many shots it’s hard to believe. Could it be we get hot in the tournament and go on a run. We’ve a ton of making up to get to the average.

Dare to dream.

20 BE Games:

Staton-McCray = .306
Simpkins = .319
Williams = .300

And they took 217/287 of the 3's.

The law of average is better for those who can actually shoot!! Statistically we can’t throw it in the ocean and will continue on that path. Making up to the average is pretty funny..

I went back and reviewed the Depaul game- we missed our last 5 against Depaul, 0-18 against Gtown and missed our first 10 against St Johns. As a result, that is 33 straight misses in Prudential Center. It is unfathomable.
You wouldn't think that was even possible!!

We also suck at 2-point shots so add that to the critique. We miss a lot of them.

I used to be able to shoot the lights up. Until that is I played college defenders and that was just in intramurals.

At least we were the champs 3 straight years. LOL


I don't think most of us realize how fast the game is. Gabriel probably can make 20-25 from the arc in warmups. But in the game he can't even get a shot off.

You were supposed to put the ball into the basket not the lights!

I don't think what you said about Gabriel is fair since he only gets into the very few mop up games we played and at that point it is basically kill the clock time. I will give him more credit.

He's been on the team for 4 years. Plus I have seen him in practice.

What I said was very fair and accurate.

before the season i commented that we made a team of terrible shooters. and this is how it plays out.
