Nova attempted 50 three point shots tonight

[OrangeXtreme]

Only made 13.

Yeah but they got the rebound after every miss. We play below the rim and lose every 50\50 ball .

We have the shortest tall team in college basketball

It would be a pain to track this, but if you didn't count the misses they got the offensive rebound for, I wonder what their percentage was on possessions where they launched threes.

Not perfect, but 50 of their 77 shots were from 3 (65%). If you apply an equal ratio to their offensive boards (they had 27) you get 18 out of 27.

They shot 13-50 from 3 (26%). Adjusted for the 18 offensive rebounds that we infer came off 3’s gets you 13-32 (40%).

The rebounding issue is multi factorial but I think a large chunk of it is the way we play our zone , they almost always have a guy closer to the bucket off a miss than we do .. it’s just the way it shakes out . There’s nothing you can do about it

I'll take it.

Interesting.

Plus, some misses are so bad that the rebounds go past out guys.

I dont think that was true at all.. go back and look at those rebounds. when the shot went up 2/3 of them we have 2-3 guys around the basket to none for Vill but they crash hard and hit the gaps because we dont look to see them coming.. there is more to rebounding than just turn and hold your position. if you are not boxing out a person you need to find a person.
