championing. The belief that an open shot is a good shot. How many times have you seen Wu-T post that our 'offense' creates open shots for players but they just are not knocking them down? An open shot that a player cannot hit is not a good shot.

If CM believes that creating open threes for Wilmore is good offense then we have found the root of our problems. As I always suspected they are with our head coach's total lack of understanding offense.

CM, and Wu-T as his proxy, think that offense is about creating OPEN shots. Anyone with a basic BB IQ knows that offense is about creating GOOD shots. Creating open shots has absolutely nothing to do with the players on the floor, creating good shots requires that you understand your players' skill sets and put them in a position to use those skills in the most productive manner possible.

He’s not trying to create open 3’s for Wilmore - wu-tangtiger MU - 12/1 08:13:01

And they are hitting 27% of those threes, that is NOT pretty - DHighlander NWMSU - 12/1 09:03:45

I don’t look at a 3 as a good shot or a bad shot - wu-tangtiger MU - 12/1 09:16:03

That is the problem with your evaluation. You only see open - DHighlander NWMSU - 12/1 09:48:17
