    I don't think these people who just jack shots up realize how bad it is for everyone when they are making 10% of their shots. You're right: these people are very hard to reason with. The constructive and nurturing approach never works...

    Floor spacing is huge. When they sit in the corner calling for the ball and their man doesn't even defend them...the paint gets so clogged and the whole team is forced to take more outside shots.

    Usually I'll just tell them to set screens. Never works.

    I play with a dude who jacks it up every time, always from 3 and always missing, even airballing or wide of the actuall backboard
    But that said, he magically always hits the game winning 3, and his done this time and time again, i don't even think his missed one yet. so now, i dont give him the ball on the 3 point line, until then lol.
