I don't disagree that the comparisons to Jamerson are silly, but to say this guy is going to have to earn shots is silly. He obviously can shoot from what others have seen and the coach has said. If his teammates know he can shoot the rock, they're going to let him shoot it, regardless of how long he's played for the team. I didn't see anyone stopping Bubba Walther from bombing away first time out when he transferred from Akron.
And how many times did Bubba take 14 three pointers in a game much less come close to making that many? No doubt Kaminski will have the green light but to make the leap from a career high 5 to 14 seems a little optimistic to me. For one thing to get that many three point shots in a game you have to a) play against a very bad defensive team or b) be able to put on the floor and beat you man in addition to being a great outside shooter. You also have to have teammates that can get you the ball when you are open.
"you have to a) play against a very bad defensive team"
We do play Marshall this year, correct?
One of my buddies earned the privilege of playing on Team Ohio with Jerome Lane (he of the epic backboard shattering dunk as a Pitt Panther)and Dave Jamerson.
He says that the only guy he played with or against that could come off a screen and release the ball close to as quickly as Dave was Steve Alford of Indiana. He had the privilege of guarding Alford in a game vs. the Hoosiers -- apparently helped hold him under 20. But, he said he had the longest postgame ice bath in his career due to all the screens, shoves, elbows and grabs designed to free up the sharpshooter.
It does take help from teammates screening and passing, but the best need less time to get their shots up and are more consistent with their mechanics. A lot of guys can score against bad defensive teams. The best do it against good defensive teams.
