Why do we wait until the ends of games when we're behind to let him shoot whenever he wants? He's really good at them and should shoot more of them.

Motion offense, or whatever. Something like that.

I always wondered why Valparaiso didn't run that inbounds play for Bryce Drew every play of the season.

box score said he shot seven threes, were they all at the end?

He chucks up a lot of threes.

Just throw it deep to Lockett every play!

Actually, this maybe our offense next year

Why don't we do alley-oops to Westicles every play?

It's like in war when you try to win with millions of ground troops for like months and years then just say screw it and start launching nuclear warheads.

More threes from Foster would be easier to implement.

How?

Wes and his 42% needed to shoot more 3s

Well to get foster to shoot more threes, all you'd need to do is tell him to shoot more threes

I don't have the stats to back this up but I am pretty sure all of oscar's good offenses had four 3 point shooters on the floor.

not enough. half of his 2s should have been 3s.

Should shoot until his %makes drops to sprad levels.

He took nearly a third of our shots when he was on the floor. Nearly half of his shots were 3s. Took just over six 3s a game. Seems about right.

ChiComCat · « **Reply #20 on:** March 23, 2014, 06:30:29 PM »

I'm not sure where Foster's % ended up but anyone shooting over 40% from 3 should shoot more.

I'd be fine with replacing half of his twos with threes as sys suggested

GoodForAnother · « **Reply #23 on:** March 23, 2014, 06:47:07 PM »

he should shoot 100 threes a game. even if he only made 1/3 of them, that's 99 points.
