I noticed that line for Wilson yesterday as well when looking at season stats. Thinking back on last year Mylik seemed to be very inconsistent shooting from outside but on the season he actually shot a slightly higher percentage than Russell, 36% compared to 34%. Wilson should get the opportunity to shoot his way out of the slump, he probably isn’t going to put up more than 2-3 shots from 3 anyway and he does so many other things to help the team. Another illustration that Dou just doesn’t have his shooting touch right now is he is only 3 for 11 from the foul line, he is clearly better than that as he shot 75% on the season last year. For Dou I would keep him down low and let him get his touch back on free throws (which will come if he is battling down low and driving to the basket) then maybe let him start shooting a little more from outside. Another thing I have always hated about having a big guy come out to shoot a 3 compared to a guard is that it also decreases the chance of grabbing an offensive board off the miss.

Dou was perfect at line tonight. Struggled in that regard due to having a bandaged hand in previous game. Answer for Mylik perimeter shot is go mid range as he can jump over most defenders. Had a nice one Saturday and two tonight. That will still allow some driving lanes.

I mentioned to Coach last night that those baseline jumpers from 15-18' away reminded me of Byron Starks.

A little BS ... is a good thing.
