Just based upon previous players like Tyrus, Naz and Monte they put in the extra time to improve their shot. I would assume he probably is but I'm not sure considering the workload for freshmen can be daunting.
Lipsey needs to be aggressive outside

- Start date
And we are a fantastic offensive rebounding team. Most of Tamin's shots are so bad I could only imagine a long rebound that leads to tip outs or other chaos. Literally anything but throwing the ball directly to the other team 10 possessions in a row.
He was injured several times in high school. Can’t remember if one of those was senior year, I think his junior year was the worse one for injury, but that could affect his development too.
It takes experience to stop a team from speeding you up, and Lipsey has been really overachieving in that regard up until lately. Makes the passes look baffling, and that’s the intent when you’re speeding someone up.
Almost everyone else had a bad turnover in there as well, really the killer were the open court turnovers where we can’t set our defense.

I thought he was injured his sophomore year? Played football his junior year and tore it up.
He sat out a handful of games near the end of last year, and before that missed his entire sophomore season.
I don't mind if he misses. But he probably needs to occasionally shoot. It'll go in 20% of the time.
Not that any of us really care, but Hunter was 3 of 12 from 3pt range lastnight. Would we prefer that to Tamin not shooting? I get that its not apples-to-apples as Hunter has proven he can make them some nights whereas Tamin hasn't. Somthing has to change tho - that's the difference between the first half and the second half - ability of breaking the press and absolutely no spacing offensively becuase Tamin has been no threat from 8' and out. Jaz cannot come back soon enough to provide some much needed depth and calming influence.
Hopefully Jaz can be a bit of a release valve when teams pressure us. He’s a pretty crafty passer and has done it in the past for us. Might depend how good his hand is. Seems the injuries are finally catching up to us. Not having Williams seems pretty big atm.
It Will pay huge dividends next year and going forward... But definitely hurt this year. Still amazing what tj did after losing his starting pg... Not many coaches could have pulled an ncaa trny season off with that setback and this roster.
So you want no one left on the floor?
Ok so we just need to let him know to turn his 4.6 turnovers per 100 possessions into only 3 pointers.
We're simplifying things a bit more than is realistic.
If we're benching for 3 mistakes, then Grill, Holmes, and Lipsey all should have been benched for having 3+ turnovers in the last 12 minutes.
Well that's a good comparison.
Hunter last night: 13 points on 17 FG attempts (no FT) with two AST and 1 TO
Lipsey last night: 11 points on 6 FG attempts (3-4 FT) with 4 AST and 4 TO
While we can ask him to shoot more 3s, his points and assists netted 19 points on 16 possessions while Hunter's netted 17 points on 20 possessions.
0.6 points per possession over the last 12 minutes probably would've gave us a comfortable double digit victory.
If teams are gonna let him shoot 3s that wide open, I have to believe he could hit around 33% to get us near 1 PPP. Combine that with our ability to get offensive rebounds and I think its a good strategy to shoot those.
