Do you have stats to back this up? Meaning do you have stats showing a KJ shot from 15 feet results in more points than from 3?

Players are worse at shooting in college, agreed. They should probably shoot the shots that are worth more points then.

Players and coaches realize 3s and layups are more efficient than mid range jumpers so yes they practice it. This is a good thing.

There are too many different playing styles to generalize every single one of them. But I agree Syracuse's offense is ugly to watch. That's JB's fault.

Correct. But mid range is not more likely than 3 point shots.

You are going to score more points from 3 point range. And the team that scores more points wins.

It's easier to defend with 5 guys from 15 feet out than 5 guys from 23 feet out. It's all about spacing the defense. It's not like they leave every player open from 15 feet.

The other guys can post up or pass out to the 3 point shooters.
