I'm not going to pretend to know all their players from 5-15 years ago. I'll retract my statement of not remembering their pg's being the reason they lit is up several times. Maybe they were. I honestly don't remember or care to. I guess the issue is more why do you think Cane should be compared to Hansbrough or that inserting him into the starting lineup equates to instant easy flowing offense and wide open shooters and bigs. What do you see that Mick doesn't? I've watched every game except the three in the Cayman's. The home games give you a much better chance to see things because seeing a game in person is completely different. I haven't seen anything from Cane to suggest he's a dynamic pg that makes his teammates better. And I have pretty good confidence in Cronin to think he could see that ability in Cane if he possessed it. Cane came in as a selfish scorer, maybe Cronin is keeping him humble and trying to teach him how to play within this team instead of teaching the team to play around Cane.

FWIW, I'm still just playing devils advocate and trying to argue on what I think Mick sees along with what I see with my two eyes. We can agree to disagree on the subject. I don't come on here to continually go back and forth. I stopped that about 3-4 years ago.
