Igor Milicic 3 point shooting

Igor has to keep shooting...until proven otherwise, I will consider that an anomaly for Igor given his work to date AND especially since everyone else not named Gainey (and only in the 2nd half) struggled shooting.
Bump

I love Igor and his contributions and he's gotta keep shooting...statistically he's due for quite a few in game heaters especially given the looks he's getting so let's hope for some serious mean reversion in his case. Pre-season I posted he would be the biggest factor between a good and great season because of how he could impact the game as a true stretch 4...if his 3's don't start falling it's def gonna bite us in conf play as opposing players sag off him.
 
Has a nice looking stroke just not making any. It all has to even out he shoots it really well good form and he has a history of making 35 percent.

I am not going to get too concerned until the shots are less discretionary and more required for him, ZZ and others. Crunch times are soon to be upon us. Starting from scratch like Coach just said.
 
Was at the game yesterday. Igor was hiting virtually every 3 he threw up in shootaround. Feels like his in-game shooting is mental at this point.
It's 100% mental imo...he's getting wide open, pregame warm-up looks and is now 0/13 over the last 4 games and is shooting 15 %'age points below his avg last year.
 
I'm friends with someone associated with the program,of course they all loved Lanier,but Igor was the one they were all so excited about.

He's the difference between a great (historic) season and a good year imo. We have seen how he affects the game from a defensive and rebounding perspective. Now, if he shoots +35% the rest of the season then watch out.
 
I've noticed last few games Igor has looked hesitant to take a 3 point shot even when wide open. I wonder if Barnes has asked him to first look at taking it to the hole?
Not sure exactly what it is but he does look indecisive in regards.
You can only shoot below 30% so long and still have a green light. Barnes probably just wants him shooting super wide open ones (or it may be depending on how practice has gone)
