Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 5171802, member: 9844"] Agreed. I think a realistic expectation for this team from beyond the arc is that we will be good but not great. Azzi, Paige, Ashlynn and Sarah I expect to be good. Allie too but she may not get much playing time. Morgan might be good, but the jury is still out on her from my standpoint, I think she might be pretty good but not as accurate as she has shown so far. The other side of the issue is we have several players who are passable at best, but still put up a fair number of attempts. I think this is somewhat by design. I believe Geno wants Kaitlin and KK for example to shoot it when they are open, but if I were an opposing coach and the defense gave up an open three to either of those, I would think the defense did a decent job, and way better than most alternatives. The same would be true for Aubrey when she returns. In Ice's case the defense wants her to shoot threes IMO. If we limited threes to only our best shooters, the percentage would be much better, but I think Geno can live with an occasional 30% or a little less attempt within the flow of the offense, as long as it is not too often. Azzi getting 30 minutes or more a game would help but from a position standpoint our regular PG's Kaitlin and KK are not three point sharpshooters, and PG's frequently are. [/QUOTE]
