Morris apparently either didn't get, or didn't listen to, the "you can be a great point guard, you really don't need to be shooting long range shots" talk after yesterday's game.

For a team that relies on so many outside shots, Michigan isn't very good at shooting.  It's going to be a rollercoaster watching this young team.  

Unfortunately, the overall record looks like it's going to be as bad as predicted.

How many shooters do we have? Morris is getting better, but a long way away from being a shooter, our white guy perimeter are shockingly more scorers who can get hot than spot up shooters, Evan is still a skinny freshman (but has potential), and most everyone else are just taller bodies to take up space. Some size finally, but not gunners.

At least it certainly seems that way.  A lot of layup attempts that start about 5 feet from the rim and giv eplenty of time for a defender to come helpside and slap them away.

Finally got the feed to work.  Guess I can't spell after 22 beers... been spelling "hooptest" instead of "hoopstest".  Thanks for the update - Go Blue!

Flipping McLimans and his 3s, and now Horford is taking them. 

Unfortunately, it looks like JB has given everyone on this team the green light from 3, and McLimans, Morris, and Horford are simply bad 3-point shooters (and maybe a few other guys, but at minimum those guys shouldn't be shooting)
