Fretting about 3pt shooting can be tabled, for now.

The team is shooting about 35% from the arc. Four guys are over 40% (Dailey, Andrews, Lazar, and Perry. Bilodeau at 36% and Clark at 34% amongst 6 key guys.

Johnson has now dipped below 30%, (28%) and while I love his overall play and have no issue with him attempting open 3’s throughout the game, he tends to want to shoot a couple early (and tends to miss those). He’d be better waiting until he’s into the groove and stay away at least tin the first 5 minutes.

Mack ,at under 24% should avoid 3’s unless the shot clock is winding down or unless he’s super wide open, IMO.

While not perfect, I was leased with Harris’s play late in yesterday’s game, and loved how the first two/three times he touched the ball, he didn’t shoot a 3, and in fact, had a nice assist and then a nice drive for a basket. When he finally got an open three look, he hit it, and looked far more relaxed in doing so. I’d like to think he can grow off of that performance.
