Next year’s roster:
PG: someone at least 8 posters will say they never heard of
SG: someone who could shoot like crazy in HS, now not so much
SF: someone who shoots like a power forward but rebounds like a SG
PF: someone who rebounds like a small forward and shoots FT like Wilt the stilt
C: an undersized project

Bench. Too thin or two many non players

Have I captured everyone’s thoughts?

They've shot over 35% from 3 in 2 out of the last 13 games.

I have no idea where you came up with that.

Hunter's shooting numbers have gotten better with confidence and playing time. Quit cherry-picking.

He has shot 46% from 3 since the second Marshall game.

Im talking about team numbers. This is one of the worst shooting teams we have had no matter how anyone looks at it.

In terms of Hunter, they have gotten better in the last handful of games but it is such a small sample that it's almost meaningless unless he can prove to do it over the course of a reasonable number of games. (Especially with the low volume)

He has done it for just about half of the season now. Numbers are climbing for Jaylin.

If Hunter can maintain it will higher volume, it would be a big help to the team. Right now, he's average about 1- 3 pointer per game over the last half of the season (1 for 3 per game).

I gave you a timeline that said just about halfway through the season. 1-3 is not an accurate number.

If they win, they can all be 5'10 for all I care.

Lol. Your long term, unwavering, commitment to this narrative is impressive. I don't disagree that our bigs are often a bit undersized, but 1-4 or at least 1-3 our guys are usually normal height to even a little on the tall size. Our wings may be a little skinny, but they definitely aren't short.

That said, shooters, or lack thereof, is a much bigger problem for JJ's teams than lack of post presence.

Speaking of shooters. What ever happened to that guy M. Huiett who was such a great shooter in High School and couldn’t cut it here?

Hasn't played this year. No clue if he opted out or not.

Opted out at UNC-G and is in the portal.

I think you are having trouble understanding and following.

The entire time I've said we need more volume from Hunter to see if he's shooting has improved. You brought up he's done it for half a season. Over that half of a season, he's averaging 1 3 pointer made per game on 3 attempts. That is not moving any goalposts at all.

I am very much understanding that I said since the second Marshall game. He is 12-27 since that game, which is 44%. Not 1-3.

So I was 2% off in this post, but here is the original response.

You literally said about half of the season. The second Marshall game would represent 40% of the season. If you want to use that cherry picked data set, it represents 1.3 three pointers on 3 attempts per game. The volume doesn't change LOL

Using a random 9 game sample is obviously the definition of cherry picking.

Not trying to pick a side but hopefully bridge the gap of misunderstanding between the arguments. Giles is saying we don't have a good shooting team, and is thus showing 3pointers as the stat since making 3's is a pretty good indicator whether or not you are a good shooter. Posting the overall shot score can be misleading depending on how many layups the player typically takes, which isn't part of the argument. You can make layups and still suck at shooting.

OMG! That's when he started playing more and playing with more confidence which is what I said when I stated my FACT about what he was shooting during those games. You are insufferable dude!
