[QUOTE="gte447f, post: 539356, member: 4289"] Lammers was not as effective from the high post last year as he was the year before. I know he had an ankle injury all year last year, but that doesn't explain all of the ineffectiveness last year. Lammers' high post position moved further and further away from the basket last year. At times he was receiving the high post entry pass beyond the top of the key. It didn't work when he got extended too far from the lane. The high post entry pass needs to be made to the free throw line. I don't know why the staff let that happen last year. I know in the beginning of the season last year there was talk about extending Lammers' range and developing his 3 point shot for the NBA. He took a few 3's early in the season, and did not shoot a good percentage, then stopped shooting 3's, but he kept setting the high post too far outside. It may have had something to do with the ankle injury also; maybe he felt like he needed more space to operate in on the bum ankle. Banks does the same thing sometimes (extends the high post too far above the free throw line), and it is totally ineffective when he does it also. Our bigs have to set the high post at the free throw line and our guards have to commit to finding ways to get them the ball there. Extending the high post to the perimeter plays right into the hands of the defense. [/QUOTE]
