Zeigler's 3pt shooting

[MinisterofDef#92]

Senioritis is a malady that is usually associated with the pressure of the last amateur year.

I wasn't aware of using the word in that context (only in terms of "checking out and/or being distracted by other things)). Still seems unlikely that he felt more pressure than other points of his first 4 seasons at UT when he carried all the pressure of being the guy every team tried to take out of the game or when he started his career at UT as a true freshman being thrown into the fire of SEC competition and absolutely showing out I might add.

Maybe you're right though and seeing DK everyday made him somehow doubt himself and/or start pressing...I have no clue but all I know is he should have had the least amount of pressure of his entire career but something obviously affected him.

If you have to say "want to preface this" or :with that said" or "with all due respect" then you probably should think of a different way to express the thought.

Maybe something like "I wonder what is wrong with ZZ shot? His 3 % is down 9 points and his shots per game are up. I would love to see him make more or shoot a little less until his shot comes back"

Did you invent AI?

Point Guard responsibility:
1. Effectively bring the ball down court to be able to set up the offense.
2. Court vision and ability to communicate offense
3. Ball Handling/passing ability to run offense
4. Dribble penetration ability in order to collapse defense and be a scoring threat
5. Ability to score from outside

Those are pretty much in order, and ZZ crushes the 1st 4 and is basically average at 5. He’s a well above average college point guard. His height is his biggest challenge of moving on. Probably plays professionally, but NBA would be a stretch.

Add in things you can’t quantify like heart….he’s a great player.

When he wasn't so engaged in running our team, his percentage was much better. He's a F'ing warrior.

I’d like to know SVs thoughts on his shooting his last year. Was it playing a different role, not getting enough shots in off season etc.? Very curious his thoughts.
Like Billy Madison, I really contributed nothing to your discussion. But unlike him, hopefully you and everyone in this room isn’t dumber for listening to it.

I don’t FEEL any dumber, but I might not have had much room to go…

The thing about Ziggy is that regardless of his shooting numbers, the team is clearly different when he isn’t out there. He’s kind of a coach on the court. He won’t be this cold the entire season. He has a solid game against MTSU.
