I'm sure that he's being coached to shoot more.
Same with Sully and all the threes.
You make it sound as if Sully is out there bombing 3s left and right. So far this season he's only taken more than two 3-pointers in 2 games. In those two games, he went 2-4 and 2-3.
I know people don't like bigs shooting 3s, but it's drawing more attention than it really needs.
I'm not comparing Sully to Antoine. I've just seen posts complaining about Sully taking so many threes and I was just commenting that the coach is more likely than not encouraging these players to do some of the things they're being criticized for.
I think there is something to this.
I watched the game again this a.m. and in particular watched Green and Wallace a lot. They combined to barely touch the ball on the offensive side of the court. Maybe less than a couple dozen touches combined - of any kind.
When they came down for sets, both of them would often just jog to the corner, out of the way, with body language that said, "This play is not going to come to me." It wasn't even 'frustration' or 'resignation'. It looked like more, "This is the plan."
I also noticed that Green and Wallace chatted a lot with each other throughout the game. It usually _seemed_ to be about the game, as they would point and gesture out at the court.
I'm not sure exactly what Stevens is trying to accomplish, but our offense is very bizarre to watch right now.
So the idea that Bradley is being coached to let it fly 22 times ... at this point, I can believe anything.
