This is the key. The Groce offense is built on being able to consistently make a shot that is being phased out due to it's risk/reward ratio. For a guy who is supposedly so driven by numbers and stats I cannot figure out why we take so many "long" 2-point shots.
I don't know if it is necessarily what he wants but rather what the team is capable of getting. In present day college basketball defenses chase teams off of the 3 pt line. Most teams compensate by going to the rim. The major offense deficiency of this team is being able to get to the rim. The inability to get to the rim leads to the large amounts of 2 point jump shots.
