Message: [QUOTE="General20, post: 1217576, member: 724"] I agree, basically, with what is being said. Every shooter in history is better when he can step into the shot rather than needing to curl off a screen. I still maintain that Cooney's shooting percentage will ultimately have little to do with how Cooney himself plays and more to do with how the rest of the team plays. Cooney is a role player and not a star. That much should be clear. I still think he's a very good role player, but right now teams are treating him like a star and making a point to shut him down. If opposing coaches are going to make a point to stop Cooney all year they will mostly succeed and he's not going to shoot very well. If McCullough, Joseph, Christmas, etc. make it impossible to focus on Cooney then his percentage will be high enough toale everyone happy when it's all said and done. [/QUOTE]
