Way too many times we take a 3 very early in the shot clock, by somebody other than Kopp. We need to work the ball more and try to find holes in the defense. If we were a 40% shooting team from 3, that's a different story. But we're not. You can't put that stipulation on any offense, man. There are good shots and bad shots... I don't really think the point in the shot clock is relevant. This is also why it's imperative to rebound the damn ball defensively and get the ball into the front court quickly. I can see what you're saying about being a better 3pt shooting team, just don't necessarily agree with the shot clock thing. I don't think late in the shot clock= better shots. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way those two numbers could possibly add up to "way too many" early 3s. I'd actually argue I'd like to see us shoot MORE threes, and not just from Kopp. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I find anything wrong with it...Coach Woodson is right...There's no "magic formula" beyond hard work and executing what you've practiced...Pretty much that way in every endeavor if you ask me... Coach Woodson isn't nearly as salty as Coach Knight was, but I can tell he gets a bit perturbed from time to time with the journalists...

Coach Woodson isn't nearly as salty as Coach Knight was, but I can tell he gets a bit perturbed from time to time with the journalists... I guess you could take it that way from the 3 or 4 cuss words there at the end. I honestly think he is STILL soooo pi$$ed off at how we played and looked against Rutgers. That style of play is just not in his DNA. He just gets mad thinking about their poor play and starts cussing. I know I've been there from coaching basketball and softball. I really get the feeling that Wednesday, we will see much tougher team on the floor. I'm not guaranteeing a win, I'm just saying Woody has probably lit a fire into the players. If that $h*t happens again....they gonna be riding the pine! As Knight would say, "“The greatest motivator in the world is your ass on the bench. Ass meets bench, bench retains ass, ass transmits signals to the brain, brain transmits signals to the body, body gets ass off bench and plays better. It's a hell of a sequence.” - Bobby Knight 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5fouls Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 On the subject of cussing, I imagine most coaches consider 'lose' to be a 4 letter word, which it actually is. Now that I think about it the word 'wife' also has 4 letters. That explains a lot. 1 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier4Life53 Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 I just watched the video, and personally loved his (mildly salty) response to toughness. There isn’t any magic to it….it’s all about effort! I’m sure he’ll send a strong message on Wednesday, and have place on the bench for anyone lacking in that category.

The shot clock comment was a relative element. I'm not saying the 3 pt shot needs to come at below 10 seconds, I'm saying why take a 3 pointer in the early part of the shot clock without even trying to work the ball around to find holes in the defense. If a guy is having a hot shooting nite, then go for it. But JG, Race, Bates haven't shown they are consistent 3 pt shooters at all. (Bates had 1 hot night out of 2 seasons, so that DQ's him as a consistent 3 pt shooter) And even X is pretty streeky. If we had 3 solid 3 point shooters (oh God, please let that happen...) then that's different. But with this team, at this point in time, we're NOT a 3 pt shooting team. Race had 2 airballs from 3 in the Rutgers game. But that is only one example of several that could be used. Taking a bad shot (like UNC coach said) is like a TO. I agree with that. Open shots by mediocre shooters, does NOT make it a good shot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pissed off because he doesn't take "in rhythm 3s" ... like, the way Race Thompson shoots his 3s is NOT how he practices them. Catch the ball, in rhythm, and let it fly. He catches.. pauses... judges the wind, and then shoots. Impossible for RT to be effective that way. Jordy Hulls? Reggie Miller? They can head butt a ball in... Race Thompson? Shoot it in rhythm. Don't think about it. Would it be a taunting call if somebody licked their finger and put it up in the air to judge the wind before nailing a 3? 😎 Either way, I now want to see that happen. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purdue7 Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 You don’t have to make 3’s to win 🏆 You better be efficient with low turnovers, great defense & good rebounding which IU is very capable of. If you can’t make 3’s you will probably have to grind out wins against high level teams: Xavier ✅ Rutgers 💩 If Rutgers is doubling TJD and the dive is covered a wide open 3 is the what you are trying to get ?

I still think that applies with a shot clock, but others may disagree. 30 seconds is enough to get multiple good looks most of the time. If we can get Trayce the ball with a chance to score I’d prefer that over a Geronimo jumpshot with 20 seconds left on the shot clock.
