No offense, but please don't mischaracterize my position.  The offense has turned into an abomination precisely because we've spent several years playing without a true lead guard, and this is what results when you have to compensate for not having someone out there who can orchestrate an effective offensive attack.

Boeheim deserves blame for recruiting length for the zone over skill at the point, and also for electing to pass on several players over the past few years who would have nailed down the point guard position and made it an area of strength instead of a massive weakness.

re: taking two to score -- that's a substantial overstatement, given that we had four players [not including Frank] who were capable of being double figure scores any given night.  The ingredients were there for this group to be better than they were, save for one: lead guard.  A true point guard would have had no problem wracking up assists with that collection of players surrounding him.
