Maybe he shoots better in practice now that he's here. Remember, he's practicing with four great three-point shooters. Something's gonna rub off.How has JB told him to never shoot a 3?

And I think for his role, for this particular team, that's just fine.I'm not that confident, based upon the summer workout videos. I just don't think we can count on ST to be a shooter. Maybe from mid-range, but certainly not from 3.

Symir played good against LeMoyne because they pressured him. That's what he wants and where he is going to thrive. We will play some teams this year who are going to pressure him no matter what, Duke is one, Villanova is another. I expect him to be very valuable in those games.
The true test of his season is going to come against teams who sag off him, clog the lane, and dare him to shoot. Virginia will do this for sure, I expect there will be plenty of others. Will he be able to contribute against those defenses? If a defender can leave him and doubleteam someone else, he becomes a liability who needs to stay on the bench.
He doesn't need to score against teams that don't pressure him, all we really need him to do is play excellent D, make good decisions with the ball, give us ball handling, and keep one defender occupied. I'm confident he can do everything except the last one. If he can do the last one, he will be a really nice piece to our team.
Yeah, but we could spread the floor, see if his defender sags to help someone else, pass to someone else, he cuts, backdoor finish.THIS.
IF he cannot make a guy defend him, then he's a little quicker and more buff version of Howard Washington.
(this is not a compliment)
Your PG can't be a total self-check, whereby his man can sag off of him at any time to zone or double another player, and not be able to make them pay for that.
