See what I did there?
Go ahead, tell I'm wrong
Then tell why shooting 1000 jumpers a day is NOT a reflection of...*checks notes*..."habits, focus and effort"
Here's why cavemen spout dumb platitudes: they don't know how to coach shooting. When you don't know how to coach something... then it becomes black magic, a mystical art.
Mack, 2 years with Cronin... can't shoot
Dylan G, 3 years with Cronin... can't shoot
Tyger, a decade with Cronin...meh shooter at best, with one ok year followed by a fall off.
Every MLB team has a hitting coach. And a pitching coach. Those are the two most important skills in the game.
Does Ucla have a shooting coach? BRO says no.
What about a dribbling coach? The Lakers did (don't know if that guy is still with them, I don't think so)
Whoever the GM for Ucla bball is is asleep at the wheel.
