We become an average team when

we are unable to hit our 3 point shots. I wish I knew the answer. We all know they can shoot it, maybe just a confidence thing. Very frustrating to watch so far. Plenty of time to right the ship I guess.

Agreed

It's certainly rough today. What I wouldn't give for McGee right now.

 

[isuno1fan]

Make that below average team

 

[every_yard]

I'd classify it more as when we refuse to go inside. We've had several good games when we weren't hitting 3's but took it inside. In the 1st half today, we seem to be settling for 3s (although a majority of them were good looks).

thomas is hurting us right now 0-2 and 2 turnovers

We are the worst 3 point shooting team in the B12. Considering this is the last game of the year I'd say that it is what it is. We can't shoot the 3 very well.

Most of the 3 shots are plain SHORT.

...been a pretty average team all year. Just good enough to win when they should, but rarely dominant. They have a chance to go from a successful team to close with 5 losses. Their energy reminds me of the end of the 00- '01 season.

LOL...yes...Matt is the only problem. Cmon.

Just not what I would expect from a Fred Hoiberg team. Our 3pt "specialists" this year just aren't even close to a McGee, Babb, Christopherson...

 

[rhillary]

Just like to point out: no team is above average when shooting 15% from 3.

 

[ianoconnor]

Gotta have some production out of Naz or Matt.

 

[pourcyne]

What I can't figure out is why there is not one Cyclone around to rebound when those 3's get missed.
Boards, my friends. Boards.

Let's not be too hard on Matty T., either, he is playing some courageous defense against da Floppah.

 

[CYandIareBFFs]

Stupid thread. OP's grammar is horrible as well. I blame the schools.

 

[BigCojones]

This team makes so many silly mistakes and bad decisions with the ball it's frustrating to no end.
And to many players on this team are unreliable scorers. And when the few good ones we have are off, this team is not very good.

 

[Wesley]

Matt is better today on defense than offense.

 

[pourcyne]

Also, when the refs make a poor call, we lose everything.

Kane gets mugged by Smart and it's not a flagrant. Kid needs to carry a blood capsule in his mouth and bite down on it when he is assaulted. If a foul draws blood, it has to be flagrant, does it not?

 

[boone7247]

Like I have said before, I don't believe we live by the 3, but we certainly can die by it.

Something out Niang would be nice as well. Dude is laying more bricks then the local 357. They are gonna end up making a poster of Niang, Matt and Naz for the local brick layers.
