sendek teams:

we can still win/stay in the game if we arent hitting from outside.

truth

agreed to an extent...

however the 1st half we couldnt hit and we got behind..

2nd half we hit a few more shots and came back (and the crowd helped)

^ true, but how many games did you see us get behind by at least 10 points last year and still win?

depth helps, along with the different line-ups. i don't like this hodge/no hodge thing, cause he didn't have a healthy bethel, and simmons playing strong inside.

i just like how we can go from a bigger line-up to a smaller faster lineup, and really work the matchups both inside and out. also this year, it seems we don't live/die by the 3 as much.

we still have noone that can hit a 15 foot jump shot though. but i guess if you can pound it inside and kick it out for 3's then who cares.

Cedric hits the mid-range jumper from time to time.

Bennerman and Atsur hit the 15 footer every once in a while...we just dont take that shot very often.

1/21/2006 9:25:47 PM

it amazes me the shots that Ced will chose. If he's 1 foot outside the arc he wont shoot (minues 1 or 2 times)

if he is 1 foot inside the arc he'll take the shot

i think the idea of a 3pt shot scares him

i meant it more like off the dribble pull up. it isn't a big deal, just think it is funny that we either hit a 3 pointer or a layup, but hardly ever anything between that.

cedric has hit a midrange like 3 times this year.


It would be huge if bennerman can pull up and hit that shot though. in general, people play him for the drive. a midrange jumper would elevate his deadliness so much. It's truly a shame he did not advance his game the way, say, JJ redick did over the last 4 years.

Maybe that will be quickly added to his repertoire once he is doing this full time.
