I gotta increase my off the dribble three-point volume.

I'm a good shooter, but I can't

Can't get to the next level of pressuring the defense without adding this.

And so you need the focus to add it, you need the desire and intention to add it, and then you need the understanding of like how do I balance my game within the confines of the modern game.

So uh

We could talk about him more, but I just think Oh yeah, let's do it.

Yeah.

I mean when I look at the draft, this is what I see.

So that's you can you can toggle and you can draw

the defender into that other pool that you're talking about, I think, right?

Shea, yeah, yeah.

He was the twenty fourth pick, I wanna say.
