Most teams do not have 4 shooters that put up shots at a high volume ...
and it did not help us play D or benefit us come tournament time. It did impact our rebounding last year, we are +7 more per game this year than last. Having "4 shooters" last year led to 16 assists per game, which is the same as this year. Our scoring offense is very similar... 76 last year... 74 this year.
The complaint made earlier was that we are a bad outside shooting team. That is what I addressed hoping that people compare the shooting to other teams and realize that most teams do not have multiple people shooting volume threes at decent/higher percentages. Even one of our "shooters" last year only made approximately 1.5 threes/game. The ACC and NCAA sets limits of at least 2 or 3 per game when they look at eligible athletes for ranking purposes/3FGs made.
