Now that is a more of a theoretical question as plus minus is limited in what it can tell you. But over time (many games) I start to like it more and more. Short stretches it doesn't mean much. |

Young men, not kids. He is just a selfish player, you can see when he brings the ball up he is going to force it as opposed to pass, he has to get his shot. Kind of like DDJ except he doesn’t have anywhere near the offensive ability. If he accepted his role I think he could be serviceable. If we land this 5 star pg from GA or 4 star from Dayton he will be a career backup.

It's his job to try to use his main weapon and the coaches job to ensure that he tries. He get's stuck at times going to the rim but that is part of the assignment of beating guys to the rack. It's harder for him to stop that full speed blast than others who go in more controlled (slower). He will learn how and when to pull up etc over time. I am not betting on Mike to fail with all the hard work he has put in. His shot has improved leaps and bounds. |

Memphis is also 9-7 but I have heard excuses that they are just too talented for us to beat them with our players. And then they lost their next two games. Those were also lazy takes. I will take any road win. But being down double digits and fighting back on the road is absolutely a great win IMO. |

People just look for every excuse to justify the bad. |

We're doing about as well as you'd expect a 60th ranked team to do. Some good wins, a couple bad losses. There's no reason to go looking for "excuses". Every team has bad games. |

Well he is a pg… if the ball is on your hands The majority of the time when you’re in I would expect you to have more assists than non pg. Can’t deny he forces way to many. He wasted 4-5 possessions in the wsu game. How does he rank against other pg nationally for assists per 40?
