I know tat everyone says he is a great shooter but the way he shoots he makes himself smaller than 6'9. He has a low release point and he almost takes a set shot. I am sure the staff will work with him in the off season.

He was set up outside the arc in the corner at least 3 times in the Miami game where ether Johnson or Sanders tried taking it all the way to the rim on 2 or 3 guys instead of passing it out. It's getting to look like both of those guys are the black holes of basketballs when they decide to drive. Sanders in particular forces too many shots. It would be different if was sinking them, but he not. The defenses know he won't pass out so they collapse on him too.Did he attempt a shot last night? Like to see him be more of a factor on offense.
Its difficult to dribble drive to the basket against a zone defense.Rutgers needs far more practice attacking the zone before league competition starts.Finishing shots around the basket is a area needing major improvement especially with the poor 3 point shooting.He was set up outside the arc in the corner at least 3 times in the Miami game where ether Johnson or Sanders tried taking it all the way to the rim on 2 or 3 guys instead of passing it out.

How "open" you are is to a great extent a function of how quick you release and where you release from.He's not getting the open looks.
Last season for TV games the analyst would rave about how athletic Sanders was and his quickness. Now you hardly hear it. Partly because Johnson is there too and maybe because he doesn't finish a lot of the shots. Just have to hope he draws fouls in the half court sets.He was set up outside the arc in the corner at least 3 times in the Miami game where ether Johnson or Sanders tried taking it all the way to the rim on 2 or 3 guys instead of passing it out.

Of course, some of it could be because we're so bad from the outside and the guards try to do too much. Maybe the CS has told them when to go to the basket. As long as we can get some ORs, it's not as bad, but won't happen in the B1G.

It's still a learning process and we're winning.Different offense, different coach. This is not as dribble drive as it seems.Last year, Jordan gave the keys to Sanders. You never win by doing that. I would actually hope the guys saw their gaps and went for them more. Right now, it is spacing and quick passing. I am seeing the guys sometimes missing their gap ops.
Still, the team is winning and I like the offense.
Or maybe 10 foot longs. Not enough time during the break or he'll be late for the 2nd half.He needs a few hundred milk shakes. Painfully thin.
Yes. It's a fun season so far instead of a funny season.Since 52,props!
I hope you are enjoying the season to the fullest. Be loud.
It seemed like coach was designing plays specifically for Thiam and Laurent towards the end. Thism hit a couple 3s, hopefully that gets him going,
One play was to have Battie curl to the top of the circle over a pick. Thiam was trailing him on a curl from baseline. Battie, stopped, rotated back to pass to Thiam, that was the first 3 he hit.
Laurent was setup on a low post clear-out he had his guy sealed, but unfortunately he hooked his defender and was called for a foul.
