A large part of our strategy appears to be moving the ball until a player gets an open jumper and then take the shot. That may work if you have a team full of dead eye shooters. But in the long haul most teams can't shoot jumpers at a high enough percentage to make that work. Love him or hate him OTZ basic strategy was better than this. Shoot open three's or get to the rim. Avoid mid-range jumpers unless deep in the clock. This increases overall shooting percentage (This years stats - Iowa State 12th - UNLV 63rd) and got players to the free throw line ( This years stats - Iowa State 15th - Rebels 320th) .
We have a soft team playing a soft strategy. If we shoot lights out we can win, but we don't do that too often.
