Fan, from your experience is fatigue a good excuse for the steep drop off on shooting percentage? I knew we weren't going to be able to shoot lights out forever, but I always thought we would fall to a more average number that still kept us in games. Dropping to stupid low numbers boggles the mind a little. We are taking less shots near the basket, so I am guessing that when you take jump shots instead of layups your shooting percentage would drop. . .but this much?
I think its just the nature of shooting and relying on it as your offensive strength. You would hope to avoid dramatic drop offs like we saw last week, but I think its reality, plus we have been without Kam, who is one of our 3 best shooters with Dean and Sneed. We will go on another run where we shoot 50% on 2s and 40% on 3s, hopefully starting tomorrow. Plus, we've struggled inside against WVU inside the paint the last several years outside of the upset last year. A good sign is that we shot it really well in Austin last year, but we'll see if there is any correlation this year.
