Do coaches tell players not to take certain types of shots? The reason I ask this is because Tarin Smith, Sid Wilson, and Brendan Adams continued to shoot from 3 all year even though they were all at about 23% and often these shots were uncontested. Even good shooters have bad games like Polley was 0-6 today but shouldn’t the coach be telling these guys “ look your less than 25%, we’d rather have you shoot from closer in.” That would have left 4 better shooters to Jack 3’s for us. Maybe Hurley thought that this is the price for their development this year with no choice using this roster, but that wasn’t Smith’s problem. Offense is run to get open shots for players and sometimes these bricklayers are the ones allowed to be open I guess.
