Message: [QUOTE="General20, post: 3529927, member: 724"] Good observation, but you would never want to play your guards at the wing of the zone in college. The corner 3 is arguably the most important shot in the NBA because its the shortest 3 point shot you can take. Most teams have their good shooters who aren't much of a threat to score in other ways camp out there to score some easy 3's when D helps off them, or to just stretch the D. What Miami is doing is putting their worst defenders on the wings to essentially guard that one shot, and not have to worry about much else. In college all 3 point shots are the same distance so the corner 3 does not hold the importance that it does in the NBA and teams are no more or less likely to have a good shooter camp out in the corner than anyplace else. Thus that adjustment would make no sense in college. [/QUOTE]
