Smart Shooting

A sportswriter has found the hitch in Marcus Smart’s ailing threeball.

Our own Jared Weiss has been all over Smart’s ball dip, a reoccurring issue where he throws off the whole flow of his shooting motion by adding an unnecessary drop of his arms before pulling back and releasing. In the video (below), it’s visible on the bomb he misses. [CelticsBlog.com]

Voila. He bumps that three point percentage up, folks will be lined up around the block for a creator that nails threes and plays lockdown defense.

Plug the Gap

Can Darrion Daniels progress, front and center in the Cowboy defense, into double-team status?

“They are all a little different (three veterans), Darrion is going into his third year and played as a true freshman. He took some lumps and got better and progressed. A lot of time your bigger-time players really take off in that third year and I’m hoping he takes that step and becomes that kind of guy for us,” explained (Joe Bob) Clements. [GoPokes $]

Sugar Loaf will either head more in the direction, as far as a highly recruited guy, of a Calvin Barnett or an XLK at this point. If he, Trey Carter and DQ Osborne can take up three guys, the veteran ends should wreak havoc and give a young secondary some help.
