That's about a 3 per game average- should make it, but depending on how the scoring gets spread around, it may be near the end of the season.

He's got 29 more guaranteed regular season game, plus at least one ACC tournament game. So, he's guaranteed 30 more games this year. That means he'll need to average around three per game to break the record. We'll probably play a handful more than that with postseason play and progression in the ACC tourney, but that's worst case scenario. I think he can average 3 per game.

Yep.  He made 95 last year.  It will likely take a deep run in both Tourneys to get the amount of games needed.  I also envision his PT going down slightly with the addition of Warren & Purvis...so we'll see.

I'm hoping he doesn't break the record. I would love to see Warren and Purvis keep shooting as well as they have, which would allow Gottfried to use Wood as more of a situational player off the bench.

Darn straight.

Wood is pretty much strictly a 3-point shooter.   Monroe shot from all over.  3-pointers were only a line item on his vast resume.

That said - rooting for Wood to do it.  It's his specialty, and it certainly wouldn't detract from Monroe any (being that he has the more-prestigious overall scoring mark still well-in-hand).

Monroe was a fantastic athlete. For those who did not see him play, look up his performance against Iowa in the 1989 NCAA tournament. The Hawkeye players were saying after the game that they were trying to rip his arm off...and he still kept pouring him in. 

He had two games (Virginia and Ga. Tech) where he outscored the other team in the second half.

Perhaps. But the way Warren played yesterday, it's gonna be tough to keep him off the court.

Maybe the fact that Warren is needed in the post will help Wood keep his starting spot.

Two of my favorite State players.  Nice company.  I would so love to see another game like he had at FSU a couple of years ago.  Simply unstoppable.  Very fun to watch.

Some people have no clue.

Scott is a 4 year starter, he's one of our leaders and one of the best shooters in the country.  Take him off the floor and the lane shrinks.  Teams will go zone to try to nuetralize Leslie and Howell in the Paint and Zo's ability to drive.  HE HAS NOT BEEN OR WILL EVER BE A SITUATIONAL PLAYER FOR NC STATE!!  He's too good!!  The dude plays 35+ minutes/game for a reason.

Not gonna fight you on PT for Warren if he's playing well.  But make no mistake, Warren won't take Wood's minutes. 

Anyway, go back and look at the tape.  Warren is open alot because PSU had someone in Wood's back pocket the whole game which opens up the floor for everyone else.  Take Scott out of the game and those same looks become less frequent.

LOUD NOISES!!

It doesn't really matter who is hitting 3's, as long as we have some shooters out there.  If Purvis and Warren keep knocking down their 3's the way they have, the lanes will open up the same way they do if Wood is knocking them down.

That said, we are 2 games into the year.  It's probably unrealistic to expect the freshmen to keep shooting this well.

Agree.  Great thing is if Purvis and Warren have a few more shooting days like yesterday, teams and going to back off Wood to cover them more.  Then Wood gets to fire away.

Here we go again.....

Warren does not NEED to be open.  He can shoot a jump shot sure, but he can also drive the ball, get put backs on the offensive glass, and has a great midrange game.   He is going to score regardless of what his teammates are doing b/c that's his mentality.  

He is not benefiting from Scott being guarded tight any more than anyone else on the team.

I just don't understand this logic. He has started all three years and shouldn't sit the bench b/c Warren scored more points in one game. Warren could end up the top scorer on the team b/c he comes off the bench. The starting line up as Wood, Brown, Leslie and Howell all of which averaged double figures last year. TJW would not score as much in that line up as he would by coming off the bench. Last year we struggled with bench scoring and Warren fixes that. We lost plenty of games becuase our bench was servicable but couldn't put up points to keep up with other teams. I remember the Syracuse game where we up until we went to the bench and never recovered. TJW will get minutes and play just as big of role as the starters.

Here we go again with moronic inferences of something that was NOT said. eek1

I didn't say he NEEDED to be open, but he WAS open b/c of the attention that Wood was getting.  The court opens up for Warren to do his thang if Wood is on the court.  Didn't say he couldn't/wouldn't score, but it makes it alot easier.

RE: Scott Wood - 3pt Record Countdown 


Either of two scenarios occur for Wood this year:
1. The addition of Purvis and Warren as shooting threats allows Wood to get open more (more shots); or
2. The addition of Purvis and Warren take away Wood's shots due to their ability to get open more effectively than Wood.

Lack of playing time won't be the reason why Wood potentially doesn't get the record (especially with Howell's foul trouble being an issue again this year). I will choose the former option. Last season, most teams used their shut down defender on Wood. I see these same teams having to use those shut down defenders on Purvis due to his ability to drive and shoot the three ball.

Hope Wood makes it and I bet Monroe does also. Hes a great guy.

If you were doing a scouting job on State who do you concentrate on. You have to emphasize someone? Right now its Wood, but if you are umass who do you stick and who do you help off of. Its just the way we want it.

I have that Iowa game on VHS tape somewhere.
He truly went off.

In fact, I think I may have the GT game on tape, as well.  It's whichever ACC game that season where we trailed by like 20 at halftime, but came back to win.

Monroe will ALWAYS be the smoothest scorer ever at State.  His shot was good from the locker room before warmups, but Wood will break his record.  Wood should benefit from the addition of Warren and Purvis.  Teams cant stop all the scorers we have if multiple players are "hot".  If Lo Brown is able to shoot better from 15 feet to the 3 pt line, we will be hard to beat EVERY NIGHT.

My all time fav in a Pack uniform.  He could just do it all and was so much fun to watch out there.  Especially alongside Corch -- what a tandem.

Not only was he an incredible shooter with a great mid-range game as well -- but he was clutch.  Big shot after big shot during his career here.

"Ice" was the appropriate nickname for him.

I remember that Rodney had 48 one game (against GT, I think).  I wonder what the highest point total for any player in our history is and if that's it.

I was born in 74, but I have seen some footage of DT.  They both were great, but DT had the explosive jumping/athletic ability that Rodney didn't.  DT is the Greatest College basketball player, ever.  Monroe is the smoothest operator we've had.  It's splitting hairs in that description, but we all know Rodney doesn't measure up against SkyWalker.

You are correct sir, or close.  DT scored 57 pts in 1974 in a single game.  Wow.

 Thompson scored 2,309 points (26.8 ppg);[34] he still holds the Wolfpack records for points scored in a single season (838 in 1974–75) and points scored in a single game (57 in 1974).

Look at Ginobli and Harden in the NBA.  Also, Dion Waiters for Cuse last season.  They were coming off the bench, but that doesn't mean they weren't among the 5 best players on their team.  It can be beneficial to bring someone that skilled and versatile off the bench.  Most teams bring a guy off the bench and become weaker, but we can bring Warren off the bench and not lose a step and in many cases, like yesterday, even get a huge spark from a guy that can carry the offense.

Also, Warren's versatility allows up to sub him in for any of our starters other than Zo.  So, after 6-8 minutes, if someone is in foul trouble or has taken a few bad shots, we can sub in Warren, whether it's Howell, Wood, CJL, or Purvis.

SABOTAGE!!!

If Rodney was hitting, no one could stop him. I've never seen a pure shooter like him.

David Thompson could simply score at will from anywhere on the court.

Scott is a very streaky shooter but definitely one of the best we've ever had. I consider DT and Ice the best scorer and shooter, respectively.

Not that it really matters, because they can both hit shots from Johnston County... but Wood also has a slightly longer three-point line than Rodney had.

Just throwing that tidbit into the conversation, not making a point or anything.  Carry on!
