The Janitor in the boardroom is a term I use for which players take shots in a game. The term shot distribution must be a staple if you are concerned about maximizing each offensive possession. Just as janitors are not invited into the boardroom to make huge decisions, coaches need to decide based on statistics who and how many shots, from where, each player takes. You will find this an intriguing podcast that posed good questions for you to answer honestly. Upon reflection I think you will begin to look differently at shot selections. REMEMBER--Players do on Friday night what you tolerate on Monday-Thursday in practice.!
