More hype article about JHawks with lots of untold stories before.
—— here is a part I dig:
I keep telling him that he’s gotta believe," Calhoun said during an interview with FOX Sports. "I keep telling him, ‘The day you believe you can’t miss — or if it’s maybe the air conditioning, or it could be something changed with the basket (that stopped the ball from going in) — that’s the only way you won’t shoot a beautiful shot.’"
His crack about a jumper veering off target because of an HVAC system is a callback to something Calhoun would say to former UConn guard Rashad Anderson, another perimeter specialist who helped lead the Huskies to the ’04 national title and made more 3-pointers during his career (276) than anyone in program history.
Anderson could find an excuse for every missed shot, Calhoun said, from the slightest bump by a defender to the atmospheric pressure changes of a New England winter. And Calhoun remembers chiding him with quips like, "You think it’s 'n air conditioning?"
