At this point AG looks good on his 3’s. I think he focused on it and it’s paying off and hope it will continue. The players who need improvement are Tarin Smith and Brendan Adams around 22% and Jalen 33%. How important is the 3? it’s everything in todays game. Here’s some advanced math. To score 30 points you can go 10-20 from 3 or 50%. To get the same from 2 you need 15-20 or 75%. Our guards like to drive the lane for 2 which is a good tactic and score or get put backs like from Cobb. I would rather see the right players take the 3 than jump shots from inside the 3 point line to the foul line, except for Jalen and Gilbert.
     2 point mid range is a lost art yet that is jalen’s Game along with driving and throwing it up. Hurley has to get the right players their shots in their best spots for our best chances. If Smith and Brendan continue to clunk he has to put a stop to it. Vital is taking better shots from 3.  jalen has to continue to shoot from 3 and we hope it improves. When we were desperate on Sunday, notice that the offense set up for Polley and he hit 2 quick 3’s. Our offense should run those shots for guys who can make them.
