Message: [QUOTE="Melancer46, post: 5730620, member: 1674"] There's a Mendoza line kinda thing here where I think everyone has to have a minimum shooting ability for the offense to be functional. If it's another offensive system with a lot of high ball screens for the same lead guard and everyone else mostly plays off of him, I'd be willing to sacrifice the shooting to an extent specifically from the lead guard if it means he's able to get downhill more effectively and kick out to our better shooters. There's also some trade off between how good a shooter someone is and how quickly they can get the shot off. JJ could at least get his shot off quickly but he was unfortunately too poor a shooter for it to really matter, whereas someone like Betsey for example needed a bit more space to get his shot off but was a fine shooter.
