Cartier Martin

[pufizzle]

Just read through Pat Forde's "Forde Minutes" on ESPN.com

He pointed out that we are 11-1 when Cartier shoots better than 50% and 7-6 when he doesn't.

The thing that surprised me was that he has zero assists in his last 5 games and 0 steals in his last 10 games. 

Don't you accidentally get a steal every once in a while......and is it that hard to get an assist?? 

You won't find me complaining if he's hitting 7 threes and/or scoring 20+ pts a game

i'll complain if he hits 7 threes without scoring 20+.

I'm fine with Cartier not having many assists as long as it's because he's shooting the ball a lot when he gets it. He needs to have a more Lance-esque attitude on offense; i.e., an I-never-saw-a-shot-I-didn't-like approach. Even when he starts the game off the mark a bit.

lance is a discerning shooter compared to brian henson.  that punk ass bitch never passed the ball.

'cept lance may be a better shooter too.

What game was the loss? Yes, I'm being lazy.

Exactly.  Cartier is a catch-and-shoot guy.  He's also going to make fewer of the "extra passes" on the perimeter because he's tall enough to not have to pass up the perimeter shots that shorter players would pass up to, say, make the extra pass to the corner.
