Message: [QUOTE="Balker, post: 2744238, member: 6682"] In all seriousness though... if you recall last year the SMU game in late January. We had just come off two 20 pt losses and there was a lot of talk about Jalen, CV, and someone else (I forget who) putting a lot of time in in the gym the night before. It was one of the best games of the year for those two players. The point being, last year's team lacked discipline and prep routines. Those are two things that are critical to being a team that shoots the ball well. The third thing is getting good shots in rhythm, which happened so rarely last year, you'd be hard pressed to remember a single occurrence. I'm confident that we will probably find that there are good shooters on this team that we didn't know existed. Look at Giffey and Daniels... they shot 29% and 30% in 12-13. The next year they come back both leading the conference in 3 pt% and shooting over 42% and 48%. Context matters a whole lot when it comes to shooting numbers. [/QUOTE]
