Message: [QUOTE="Townie72, post: 1186790, member: 780"] Depending on Trevor Cooney as a significant, vital part of the offense seems to me to be a very high risk strategy for JB and I know he knows this. Cooney's 38% from 3 pt range is illusory as mean averages frequently are. You have to look at the shape of the distribution. Against OOC opponents he shot almost 50%. But in the ACC he shot 31% and if you take out the ND Game (9 for 12) in the other 18 ACC games he was 27% (35 for 129). In 7 of these 19 ACC games, he shot 13%% (7/52). He's too erratic to be a dependable to option for SU. He needs to take 3's when he's open and the game situation allows for it. The idea that he is such a powerful potential force that opponents overload their defenses to cover him allowing the other 4 SU players more freedom seems to me to be a flight of fantasy. Opposing ACC coaches just aren't that dumb. [/QUOTE]
