Our problem has been that we don't TAKE 3-pointers more than we don't MAKE 3-pointers.
The solution isn't just 3 pointers. This is oversimplification and if the team goes and only oversteers on 3 pt attempts it will be a lot like Mike Zimmer oversteering his football team into all running and only passing 10 times a game. There is more to correct and if they tunnel vision on this they will go way off the road to winning because they obviously don't have the shooters to exist purely on that.
We were below average on usage of Dunks, Layups, 3 pointers, and probably more. This team has seemingly forever existed on way too many weakly tossed bunnies off broken plays and long twos and we all know it. It has subtracted from all the higher percentage and higher gains shots. This team needs more constant discipline and skills work from top to bottom than they've had in the past.
Saying all that, I'm instantly seeing more discipline in the plan when it comes to 3s already. We've seen a little of what they are doing in practice already. We see the increased attempts in the first preseason game. That's great. Now, they also have to reel in the rest of it.
