    I can. They play shitty defense, have only 2 players who can create for themselves and their offense right now is drunk.

    Only time I've seen him shoot like this is when he had an injured leg or foot.

    I'm not sure it's necessarily "selfishness" so much as just tunnel vision. I think he'd make more passes if he could see them, but all he sees is the defender in front of him 90% of the time.

    OT last night, travel, second of a back-to-back. Dead legs more than likely.

    They just went about five mins with Swanigan, Ed, Connaughton, crappy CJ and circus performer Evan turner. Low and behold they started to get ass beat. Shocking.

    This is a microcosm of Terry Stotts as a coach.

    So pulling up from 28' on the break with no one near you isn't the best choice?
