MBB: Duke 84, Auburn 78 Postgame Thread

Probably a bit of the college game being faster and also, as you say, that he's got other responsibilities on offense. Proctor is shooting 3s much better now that he's playing off the ball.

We need him to shoot in that 32-35% range so it doesn't become a situation where teams are sagging way off and daring him to shoot. I've seen him shoot more of a set shot from 3 at times in the past when he is wide open. I wonder if we might start to see more of that shot from him.

Agree. I have one pet peeve about Crazies on camera on TV. Get rid of that stupid baby doll they show every home game. Kon is a very cerebral player. Wouldn’t be surprised if he has a big scoring night soon.

Don't mess with the Blue Devil Baby Doll. A neat part of the Cameron experience!
 
Cooper's form looks pretty decent to me. He'll probably never be a sniper but I think he'll be okay. I'll easily take the over on his .233 shooting from 3 and I'll take the over on his .696 from FT as well.

When it comes to efficiency I think the lower-hanging fruit is his shot selection. Per Torvik, he's attempted 37 close twos at a very good 68%. He's attempted 41 long twos at a 37% clip. I'd love to see him cut down a bit on the midrange shots and continue to refine his distribution when he draws help. When it comes to 3s, I'd prefer he mostly stick to open catch and shoot looks. Against Auburn I recall him taking a couple of contested, off the dribble 3s.
