Looks better when the ball goes in the basket

Crisp offense. This was talked about in the game thread. Lots of 3's today were feet set stepping into a shot. I say this because that type of shot is great shot SELECTION.

When we take good shots from crisp offensive execution, everything looks better.

You could almost tell if a shot was going in just from the type of shot it was. At one point Theo had his feet set, shot and slightly moved forward after the shot. I knew that was in as soon as it left his hand just like I know it isn't gonna go when he is leaning back or falling back. Not meaning to pick on Theo as you can tell with others as well.

I would even say that Marcus could use this advice. He can shoot on curls and off screens really well typically but maybe back to basics might help until he gets his groove back.

Agree totally. Good post. I called "that's going in!" on many of Jackson's and Berry's shots, when they were squared up with great shooting form, and wide open. Conversely, you can tell when Paige is likely to miss.... floating left or right, closely guarded.... trying too hard to get shots up, not getting enough good set shots.

Heck, even Stephen Curry shoots under 50% from 3 if he's drifting left or right on a shot. Really hard to make those.
