Nope.

Yup! And it was his coldest zone on the court...and this is just 2022-2023. He took more this season.

It shows that he has taken shots from the free throw line and beyond...as was my original claim...because he has.

Your original claim was that he took "many". That's not what that shows.

Plenty was the claim...and that word can be discretionary. There isn't any set number for plenty...but I have seen him take the shot plenty over the past 2 seasons. That chart does nothing but confirm he's taken those shots.

I know  when I think of plenty it's always a random number somewhere between 3 and 1000.............

Point still stands. He's taken them. This all stemmed from Aidoo and a jumpshot.

I'd like to see a center in this offense with a real jumpshot. Whether that is Aidoo or not, we will get it from Ben Gold next year from deep. Aidoo just has more of the midrange game that we were discussing. Gold does not.

Oso took them, just not many of them. It was not and will never be a valuable part of a Nevada/Shaka offense.

Morsell took MANY. Lewis took a lot.

It isn't absent from their strategy. They just prefer 3s and dunks, but it completely depends who's taking them. The only midrange threat on this team was Joplin and Oso's push shot.

Many different accounts on Trilly's discord are saying Seth Trimble is going to end up at Marquette...a few claim to know his mom wants Marquette because she likes Shaka...weird thing to make up, but Trilly says too early to know.

Im pretty sure thats all just based on Trimbles mom liking a couple tweets about Marquette during the tournament.  I wouldnt read anything into what people are posting there, other than Trilly.

Man, I have seen people here shifting goalposts, but this is really ridiculous. You claim he took "many." Then you post a chart that he took less than a dozen claiming it proves your point.

That isn't "many" or "plenty" no matter how you chose to define the word. It was an inaccurate statement. Just own it.

I'll stick with my opinion on Gold.  He'll be in foul trouble within the first eight minutes.

I suppose it isn't impossible, but I don't think there's any reason at this point to believe Trimble will end up here.

1. What JLew and Moresell did does not make your assertion about Oso correct

2. JLew/Moresell was two years ago with a cobbled together roster.  You may also remember the following season the team making comments about not playing for each other towards the end of the previous season.  That's teamspeak for JLew and Moresell started taking a lot of shots that they didn't want them to.

3. If you think Kam, TKO, Chase, Gold, etc are incapable of hitting midrange shots, you are mistaken. They don't take them because they're not part of the game plan. I haven't seen the end of season numbers but about 75% through the season we had literally taken 1 long 2 all season. That is a strategic choice

4. Aidoo would be awesome here.  He's a defensive monster who would thrive in our system (but we can't afford him). Him being bad at 17 footers has nothing to do with why he's be good here.

Gold will add plenty of jumpers from the 5 position next season. Most by far will be 3s. Fans will be happy about that when he's on a hot streak; he had a few of those this season. Fans will whine that he's taking too many 3s when he's on a cold streak; he had a couple of those this season.

We won't be bringing in 5s - or anyone else - to boost our midrange game as long as Shaka runs the Shaka/Nevada offense. It's an inefficient shot.

Related: Not sure why that Oso shot chart ignores the two fine 3s he attempted this season.

I am not hip to the reasons people don't want Trimble here (or if there are any Maymon parental issues). That said, I'd welcome him here if he wants to be here. Was impressed with what I saw out him this year. Really great motor on defense, good shooter from 3, and a good distributor. I get garbage time isn't the best time to judge, but thought in a few I watched where he ran the second unit he made the team better through his presence and composure. Downside is he can't hit FT
Assume what I say should be in teal if it doesn't pass the smell test for you.

Pretty sure it is a 22-23 shot chart.   Ben did a drive from the left wing, pull up 10 foot baseline jumper after hitting a couple of 3s.  He sat shortly thereafter.

I agree.  I'd love to have him but I don't think you'd use the one available spot on him.
