Message: [QUOTE="Upstate, post: 1304359, member: 48"] These Cooney threads ALWAYS, ALWAYS head in that direction because he can be so polarizing, so it was more preemptive than anything. I don't think there's been an SU player who has been such a priority for a defense from beyond the 3-point arc than Cooney has been. I think a more appropriate way of breaking down his stats is not simply by going game-by-game, but rather half-by-half. I wouldn't place the entire blame on Cooney, and I think this was mentioned above, that he shouldn't be playing this many minutes in the first place, and long-range shooting is usually the first thing to drop-off in that case. It has to be difficult, trying to squeeze as many wins from this season as humanly possible, and not have your game suffer because you never really get a rest. [/QUOTE]
