Pace is Irrelevant, So What DOES Make Us Win?

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

You can't stop taking those shots. The alternative is to let Boogie try and beat double and triple teams in the post or have Rudy break down a clogged paint defense. Which are far worse options are far more likely to lead TO's, offensive fouls, etc. It's simply a forgone conclusion: if we ever want to be a good team offensively, we got to start making those open looks from the perimeter after the defense gets broken down from Boogie or Cuz.

It's back to my original point. We were 1-16 from 3pt land last night and lost by 4. If we shoot how we normally we do, we're 5-16 from 3pt land last night. I'm not saying bombs away from 3pt land. But you can't deny 3pt shooting has a significant impact on winning and losing games.

Surely there has to be a middle ground somewhere between "jack up a **** ton of threes and "clear out for Cousins on every possession." Some off-ball movement would be appropriate, I would think; we really miss Casspi at a time like this.

Maybe you guys should just get your own sub-forum where you can argue about something different every day and the rest of us can just check in on an occasional basis?

The sub-forum must be titled Statler and Waldorf, or no deal.

That would so work for me.

It was mentioned elsewhere, but I know a certain former King who would also fit the bill quite nicely.
