Coaches don’t tell top players not to shoot. The player in question wasn’t a core contributor. Will be a nice role player for mnd but the attacker and 2 middies at mnd will still get the majority of touches there too.


I don't claim to know everything about lacrosse, but if your daughter is an attacker on the top ranked team in the country or on the 180th ranked team in the country and is told not to shoot, you need to find a new team.[/quote]

Since we are arguing about an apocryphal story to begin with, this is hard to judge without context.

Was it wrong to tell Michael Jordan, or Kobe's, or Stef's teammates not to shoot at the end of the fourth quarter of a close game, and instead to set up plays for the top scorer?
