Consistent with his season long performance, Myles performed at his non-Memorial game pace yesterday vs. the Gators . . . 1-2 from "3" . . . albeit with a lot of luck as he banked in the one shot he made! But, nonetheless, we'll take it!
Myles was 0-5 yesterday from "3" and many members commented about this performance and Stack's correct decision to "sit him down" for the 2nd half. I have updated the numbers below and the SEC and Memorial Gym #'s are stunning.
Myles hit what I thought was the 2nd most important shot today . . . the 3 pointer following his air ball 3 pointer (for which I give Lawrence a lot of credit for catching the airball and doing a ballet like dance along the baseline before passing it back out to Myles). I thought Thomas' 3 which hit everything possible before settling in the basket was the biggest shot. Of course, it's all debatable.
But here goes. Myles was 3-9 from the beyond the 3 point line. His season splits, which many of us may have intuitively "knew" (not the exact numbers, but directionally what was going on) are "crazy" since "forever" the sight lines within Memorial Gym have been considered to be "fantastic" for shooters:
