Transition 3s…why does this team not take them?!

    We try to force 3s in the half court when defense has time to settle and focus in... I see them not even allowing Reed or KD to catch and shoot a 3 completing shutting us down daring the other guys to shoot

    Meanwhile the Magic are shooting transition 3s up and down the court. Its ****ing insane

    Instead of pummeling to the point this team needs to focus on transition 3s in practice...it doesn't look like they do

    Because Alpi can't see a wide open Reed 5 feet to his left.

    How about more of a transition game in general? We have guys that can run and are athletic. Super frustrating. They always slow the tempo down when we should be aggressive and force the defense to adjust and hustle back.

    Because it's usually Amen handling the ball in transition and he shouldn't take them ....

    Cause KD Bari and Reed the only ones who can take them and most times selfish ass Amen Tari or Alpi have blinders in rushing to rim
