Message: [QUOTE="RF2044, post: 1996186, member: 40"] 7 of his 13 shots -- more than half -- came from beyond the foul line or further. That's what I consider to be long jumpers. Obviously, Thompson can shoot, and he was on Saturday. That isn't the issue I'm pointing out. The issue is that he has a tendency to force offense, and has shown himself to be somewhat of a black hole when he comes into games. All's well when he is in the zone like he was Saturday, but it could be problematic at other times, when a bit of restraint might fit the team offensive concept better. Given the overall problems we're having running effective half court sets, I want to see things settle into a state of harmony as opposed to seeing one-on-one play that could potentially be disruptive. That said, I'm all in favor of TT getting more run. He's proven capable. [/QUOTE]
