I’m not sure why people are complaining about Joe. He played well tonight. Not perfect, but he’s not our problem.

I like Joe a lot but the one thing I thought he’d bring that he has is more fore and moxy.
It’s like he is playing a pick up game half the one and seems asleep. He needs to be more of a leader on this team

48% from 3, 25% from 2

maybe he shouldn't be taking those midrange prayers or drives against players bigger, faster, and stronger

He's no point guard. He's our best catch-and-shoot option. We need one more three point shooter to go with him.

Did you notice Mintz on the bench when Joe made his last 3? Kid was going nuts.

Yes i did and it is great.

Which hopefully will develop into Chris Bell or Justin Taylor.

Girard’s absolutely improved. He’s a scorer and good passer. This is silly.

He’s not a 1 and I think he’ll play really well off the ball heading into conference play this season.

He looks for boards when appropriate too as a guard, which is extra points for me.

Draws a lot of fouls too. Crucial.

He’s a zero on D and inefficient on O and limited by size.

Until people start realizing that that recipe is a disaster for high usage, we’ll still have people explaining away our 7 plus year direction of poor play with a sub .500 season last year.

He’s not our worst player in a pure ability sense, but that’s not how’s wins and losses are determined.

He shot well from 3. He usually does.

He shot well from 3. He usually does.

Bingo.

Haven't seen enough of either one to make a pick. I like what I've seen of Taylor.
