Good 3 pt shooting by guys not named Battle and Brissett

[Millhouse]

in conference play

Dolezaj, Boeheim, Howard, Hughes are shooting 72% of the threes with a 3p% of 38%
Battle and Brissett are shooting 28% of the threes at 27%

Do you hope they snap out of it or should the others be taking those shots?

Brissett is going to try to get his and that means more terrible out of control 2 point attempts

To me, you have battle drive all game long and Brissett, sorry, you are only out there for defense.

 

[two3zone]

Brissett should be sitting on the bench, that should lower that 28% by a lot.

Battle can get hot like in the Duke game but he's much better driving and scoring. Brissett's minutes need to be limited

And how many shots does he have to take to see if he's hot or not? I don't want to waste 5 possessions of wasted 3 point shots which always seem to turn into long rebounded fast break points for the other team.

He just shouldn't be shooting from outside.

I'm good with Battle shooting 3's. He's shown he can make them at a good percentage.

I'm not good with Brissett doing pretty much anything with the ball.

.

30% this year and 32% last year shows he can't make them at a good percentage.

33% for his career and 37% with high volume as a freshman. You do stats bad.

I say let it fly.

33% sucks.

So the past 2 years aren't the most recent data? They are to be ignored? Who cares what he did as a freshman.

You do stats bad if you're going to use the outlier that was 3 years ago which happens to boost what he has done recently when trying to say what kind of shooter he is.

How do you feel about 35%?

Nah, 37 is where I'd be at.

How do we know that's the outlier lol? And 33% doesn't suck. That's the bar a player has to reach to justify shooting 3's. Always has been, always will be.

As a freshman and a sophomore Battle was a more efficient scorer behind the arc than he was inside the arc.

 

[Cusefan0307]

27% for Battle in ACC games is not good no matter how you shake it.

And none of that makes him an efficient scorer, he hasn't been and probably wont be.

Well, he's below the bar and you want him to keep chucking, not sure how that makes any sense.

Who rebounds on defense thats not Oshae? We’ll average 18 defensive rebounds a game haha

It's fine because he shot better than 33% as a freshman.

Anybody who takes his spot or the other guys on the floor.

He was ultra efficient as a freshman from the field. He's been at the border of efficiency the last two seasons but well within the acceptable range to put up a lot of shot attempts from the field.

Not a single person made an argument even in the stratosphere of that in this thread.

I agree

 

[Brooky03]

Derek Jeter had a slump once. The Yankees should have told him to stop swinging at the ball cuz he's a bad hitter.

His slump lasted 2 years?

Sure

 

[Funk Doc]

No, but I think this debate has!

He had three straight double doubles prior to nc state
