Interesting how you set that up. I know Kris was all league, but that doesn't mean he played that way every game. Heck, his shooting slump this year was far longer than BTs. A half second too late. Let me explain a bit if I can. A lot of the plays on offense included Brandon running the baseline, coming off a screen by one of the bigs, and turning to get the ball on the wing - which would place him into a position to shoot or drive the ball. Too many times, Scoop would miss the initial moment to pass where Brandon was most open to do either of those things - shoot or drive. A half-second is all a decent defender needs to catch up to a guy after being picked. And that's what I mean by a half-second too late. [/QUOTE]
