Lindsey's poor shooting from 3 point land has really hurt us this year, especially considering he's shot the most of them on our team by far.

I'd like to see Lindsey work off the ball a little harder, let the plays come to him.

Skelly tends to take them when he is wide open. Lindsey forces them too much including taking too many shots from too far back
 
It's probably just my imagination, but it seems to me that this year Lindsey has taken a lot of unnecessary (clock isn't running down, etc.) shots from well beyond the arc. I'm sure that hurts his %.

It's absolutely not your imagination. He has taken numerous shots from well behind the line, early in the clock.

Hurts morale of team. Scottie is a gifted player. We need him and he is playing smarter since wrassler saw his shortcomings,ala walkercat,on here. Come to think of it! Walkerfan has also improved!

It seems we didn't see much of that until he hit that bomb late in the game against DePaul that really was the deciding factor for us in that game. So while it benefited the team on that day, I think that gave Scottie a little bit too much confidence in that option. Since then, he's shot more of those with very few makes.

I used to call that "Dion Lee Disease" (before he became known for something far worse). Used to think the worst thing for Lee was making a three, because then he'd feel he should bomb away indiscriminately.
