kenpom player stats updated.  pours fuel on the raging irving-better-than-spradler fire.

Yeah, I saw that. Very low TO%. Would be interesting to see if Irving actually played some PG.

the issue with marty playing in front of doc is that he doesn't scare defenses into defending him and double teams are still happening when he's on the floor.  it doesn't matter if he's playing 1 or 2 or if he and jake are both playing 1.5, either way his limited offensive skills are a liability.  right or wrong, doc has kept defenses pretty honest but too often he plays like a freshman.  

marty has brains but no o, doc has some o but lacks the consistency that comes w/ experience.  frank is mumped, not sure how he let the team fall into this position.  not anticipating earlier classes lack of development shouldn't be an excuse.  

at the beginning of the season frank decided he was going to play the doc card and now he has to ride it out as we hit conference season.  doc got the minutes when others could have been out there.


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

New warning: Don't get in a fight with someone who doesn't even need to bother to buy ink.

Remember when you guys assumed that Pullen would play 40 mpg at PG?  And how you guys thought Irving was by far our worst player?  Well, why should I listen to you now?

no one thought Tay was our worst player.  There was a lot of sprads hate and if anything tay got too much love.  We all kind of look like idiots because we were all trying to solve the "post logjam" by moving jam sam to the 3 when in reality Wally/Curt/Jamar all have been out for multiple games "solving" the problem.  So I think everyone at this point should be pleasantly surprised that Jake is able to play more at the 2.  But 1) I think people aren't happy that Jake isn't performing better at point.

don't paint all of us with the samuels is a 3 brush.  there was principled resistance.

Yeah, sloppy grammar.  Should have qualified with "all of the jam sam to the 3 idiots look like idiots" or something.

To be fair, most "Samuels playing SF" talk was predicated by "Wally breaking out" talk with a little "McGruds to SG" talk and "Pullen seemlessly transitioning back to PG" talk mixed in...

I think some of that thinking was driven by a complete lack of faith in Sprads.  So it wasn't as tard-tastic as you are suggesting.

People had more faith in Jamar than the rest of our backcourt.  You can disagree on the specifics but I think that is the proper lens with which to understand the suggestions.

Thinking Jamar should/would log significant minutes at the 3 was ridiculously tard-tastic.

I guess.  I just think the justifications weren't in some sort of "hey look!  Tards!" vacuum.
