Three is more than two. So why waste time shooting anything but three-pointers?

That seems to be the philosophy of Jon Diebler, and it has worked out very well for him. Over the course of his four-year career at Ohio State, Diebler shot 1109 field goals, a whopping 900 of which were from beyond the arc. Four out of every five shots that he took at OSU were three-pointers.

Out of those 900 attempts, 3bler (rhymes with Diebler) converted on 374 of them, which is the most of any Big Ten player in history. After a rough freshman year where he only shot 30% from deep, Diebler improved his accuracy each year. He shot an impressive 50% this past season.

Diebler knows what his team needs and he does it very well. Take a look at his 2011 numbers at statsheet.com. His reliance on the three-point shot and his deadly accuracy have contributed to his number one national ranking in both Offensive Rating and True Shooting %.
