Cooney tries to shoot too much like GMAC.  I think that's part of the problem.    He needs to be Cooney, not GMAC.  If you notice Cooney's follow through, it has changed.  Forget the hold your hand in the air with your follow through.  He's too stiff with his shooting.  There's nothing soft about it anymore.  His lean even looks like GMAC.  Good coaching works with what the players strengths are and develops them, not try to make them look like you did when you played.  GMAC made  a lot of shots, but he also missed a lot too.   Good shoots are smooth, with a quick release and follow through.  Knee bend and balance are the key.  Shot preparation starts way before you receive the ball.   I don't even want to start with how high our players dribble the ball and never look before they put the ball down.  I scream everytime our guards get an outlet and turn and dribble without looking first.  They never have their heals facing the sideline.  They have their backs facing mid court.  BAsic fundamental basketball that is missing way to often.
