It comes down to coaching discipline….

FT shooting is paying attention to details at all times.  Being 100% focused etc. the FT shooting besides helping fixing form is mostly on the players.  I am not at practice so can’t comment on the approach there.

The three point shooting on the other had is discipline our coach install in our players to know what is and isn’t a good shot.  Kingz for example early in the year were taking a lot of off dribble threes and threes coming off pin down curls.  That isn’t his game and that is coaching problem. Kingz is a spot up catch and shoot three point shooter and if that isn’t there drive to the basket.   He started doing those things only the last couple of games and has been magically better from three.

We have no offense so nobody knows when and were they are going to get a shot so a lot of times you see a one pass and then a 32 foot launch of a three pointer.  Even if a kid is open that isn’t a good shot and very low percentage.  Since we don’t run an actual offensive system players don’t know when and were they will be featured so they rush shots they shouldn’t take because the have no clue when they will see the ball again. (Think Tennessee first half Kingz on fire and second half doesn’t see the ball that is lack of offensive discipline by our lead guards and lack of offensive game plan by our coach)
