I've already got a few strategies to prevent full court shooters from gaining much up my sleeve, but we'll see if it's needed at Palmetto.
Going for a full court shooter isn't an innovative approach. Teams have been trying to find the simplest way to win for as long as everyone remembers. However, becoming the next 71 from 02 or the next 469 from '10 takes A LOT of skill and guided effort. Maybe 1 or 2 teams can pull it off, but you'd better have a back up plan if your shooter gets defended.
