A link I found interesting  about where NBAplayers hit their shots.

It really challenges some of the assumptions that basketball dummies like me make. I'm usually happy if the offense works a set and gets what I think is a good shot because it's close to the basket. Instead basketball players are thinking about getting to their spot to get their best shot and defenses are trying to figure out how to keep shooters from their spots.

And it really underlines why Ivo Baltic is important. He makes shots from those blue areas more than most other big guys, it seems to me. A big guy knocking down mid-range jumpers from that space that is no-man's land is virtually impossible to stop. When Baltic knocks those shots down so many good things happen for the offense. I know I'm always hoping for another Brandon Hunter to chew on post defenders, but Ohio has a unique guy in the post who is a match-up nightmare. I'm starting to appreciate that more and more.
