[QUOTE="NCIllini10, post: 2010299, member: 748584"] Take catch and shoot 3's in rhythm when open nearly every time. Water will find its mark for most of our guys, and on average they will hit many of them. This is what causes teams to have to close out hard, and opens up space for passes inside or rip drives to the basket. Also, it is disingenuous to make claims about the ratio of shots we should take from 2 versus 3. Much of this depends on the opponent, the defense that we are facing, the personnel on the floor, etc. Speaking of yesterday's game, there were several shots from outside that were less than ideal, however there were several times that we (Q especially) turned down open looks in rhythm from 3. While it didn't work out yesterday, I want Luke taking those open 3's whenever he gets them. Harmon too. Especially because we are a great offensive rebounding team. Historically, we have scored many shots at the rim after an offensive rebound after a missed 3. [/QUOTE]
