So, I'm thinking we need to save some of these 3's for next game.

We do this every 6 or 7 games from 3 so our next good 3 point shooting performance should come against Houston or Louisville:)

RE: Save Some....
It's basically bittersweet when we make a lot of threes because when we do we shoot A WHOLE BUNCH of them.

Just to put it in perspective though, we average just over 16 attempts per game. That currently ranks 255th in attempts per game.
Tonight, we shot 19, which is a very average number of attempts (teams that average that many every game rank in the 130s).
But 2 of our 19 attempts tonight were by walk-ons, so even with the score as high as it was, our rotation players were right at the average number of attempts, which is low.
That said, there have been times when hot shooting leads to poor shot selection and failing to continue to get the ball inside out.
But as long as we take reasonably good shots, I don't see us taking too many

RE: Save Some....
So if they make a bunch early you guys think they should miss them later on purpose?
Struggled from three early this season but seems to have been much better of late.
Sorry to some.

RE: Save Some....
In the first 15 games kids shot over 40% from 3 in 3 games.
In the last 7 games team has shot over 40% from 3 in 4 games.
But- easier to just whine.

We are getting our shot back at the right time.
