Passing guard distro Topic

I have a guard that has 97 pas, 92 bh, 84 per, 86 spd. I keep his distro pretty low. He scores 5.8 pts a game. He averages 5.2 passes a game.

Should I up his distro or benefit from his passing.

I would say it depends how efficient his current scoring is.

Why would you increase his distro when he is shooting 44% and 37% from deep?

Yeah, really my questions are more in the sense of making him pass more pays up or not that much!

37% fom 3FGA is still good....it's as efficient as something like 53% for 2FGA

Look at the 3 volume, its 24/78 he makes 1.3/3.5 /gm thats low volume three shooting barely more than 1 make a game at that percentage

Zorzii, I'm guessing you're talking about Thomas Williams from the stats provided. He's taking about 23% of his shots from 3 at the moment, do you have him set at -1? If so personally I would try bumping him to 0 or +1 before I increased his distro. He's shooting 37.5% from 3 (so 56.25% effective field goal %) but only 48% on non 3 point shots, so you don't want to increase the number of shots he takes that aren't 3s. To up his scoring efficiency you really want him shooting more 3s, in my opinion.

Why is that relevant?

as his distro increases his shooting percentages will decrease, he is already pretty inefficient while only taking 3.5/gm

If anything besides lowering distro go with bumping the 3 rate and leave his distro alone since he 2p% is not as helpful as his 3 scoring.

Gotcha, I just don't think 37% on 3FGA is inefficient.

Zorzi, I would put that 84 per at +2 and at 11 distro. I have a all-american and conference player of the year under my belt. Because I put 70 and above at +2 and at 11.

+2 forces the three point shot, which is probably more acceptable with a 90+ perimeter rating. He is also more likely to force a shot if you up his distro.

84 in D-2 is not the same as 84 in D-1 at a Big 6 school. There is a huge difference.
