Message: [QUOTE="cuseincincy, post: 4082273, member: 331"] I was one who lauded Benny in the exhibition games. Everything you say is correct, he hasn't been the same. I still see the flashes once in a while like the casual drop down to an open Jesse in the lane that you don't often see from freshman forwards. But those moments have been way too infrequent as have the displays of his athleticism. I also said, and stand by, that Benny and the team would be best served if he just focused on defense and rebounding this year. He is a plus athlete that we could use if only for those 2 skills. If he can earn more time by doing those 2 things well, I think the rest of his game will open up as the year goes on. I have no comment on his jump shot. It was telling that when Jesse fouled out we didn't see more Benny but an offense/defense rotation of Symir and Frank. [/QUOTE]
