How To Fix Clemson Basketball (Shooting. Making Points)

It's not Rocket Science, there is no magic "X and O" ...
Everybody shoot ONE THOUSAND shots a day, every day ... of ALL TYPES ... from all points on the floor
Its a "Muscle Memory" thing ....
We miss WAY too many what should be easy, high percentage shots ...
Do this, and these types of shots will be automatic
Its that simple
Here is a definition of "Muscle Memory" for those who don't know what this is ...

should ... looking at the way they play ... if you have ever coached ....
Obviousally have the physical skills (run, jump, coordination) ... but basic stuff, like making an eight foot jumper ...
This is NOT a "God Given" talent ... you don't have to be a great athlete to do this ....
Look at those goofy "white boy" teams found in the midwest, not great athletes, just do the fundamentals well ...
Combine great fundamentals with great athleticism, and you have great players, and a great team ... again, this is not Rocket Science
Great Defense is good, but fundamentally, someone has to put the ball in the basket when presented the opportunity on the other end ... its a "scoring more points then the other team thing" ... its like "Math" .... you will lose when you try to argue with Math

Perhaps that is the problem.
The team has developed muscle memory for missing shots. Less practice could be the answer.

With the way this CU team shoots, I figure we would need to have at least three times the number of shots as our opponent to have success. Perhaps we should concentrate on boxing out and getting the offensive rebounds.
